What to specify
- Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
- Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
- Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
- Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
- Louvres and vision. Ventilation louvres for plant and switch rooms, and glazed panels where people need to see through.
Jobs we can carry out
- Installing a leaf-and-a-half steel doorset so equipment can pass through a plant room door when needed.
- Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.
- Replacing a rotted timber fire exit door with a galvanised steel doorset and a BS EN 1125 panic bar.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Paisley, the Workplace Regulations 1992 set the basics: doors suitably constructed, swing doors giving a clear view through when closed, and maintenance under regulation 5. Under the Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, an emergency exit door must open easily in the direction of travel and must not be locked or fastened so it cannot be opened immediately in an emergency.
How the work is organised
Downtime matters on a working site, so the programme is set around your shifts. For a single door the opening is usually needed for a day; multi-door jobs are done one bay at a time so deliveries keep moving.

Frequently asked questions
Which fire exit hardware do we need at our Paisley site?
If members of the public or people unfamiliar with the exit may use it, panic hardware to BS EN 1125 is normally required. Exits used only by trained staff who know the door can use emergency devices to BS EN 179. If in doubt, choose BS EN 1125.
How long does it take to replace a steel door in Paisley?
Most single steel doorsets are fitted in a day, including removal of the old door, fixing the new frame and making good. Made-to-measure doorsets have a manufacturing lead time, which we confirm with the quote.
Can our Paisley fire exit be locked from outside?
Yes. It can be secure from outside, with a key or code device or no external hardware, as long as it always opens from inside using the exit hardware. Never lock or chain a fire exit while people are in the building.
