Options that matter on site

Security options. From hinge bolts to certified security doorsets, the door can be specified to resist attack.
Emergency devices. Staff-only exits used by people who know the door can take BS EN 179 lever or pad hardware.
Galvanised steel. Leaves made from two zinc-coated steel skins, finished in a hard-wearing powder coat.
Complete doorsets. Everything comes together as a matched doorset, so it fits and works as designed.
Outside access. Staff can get in from outside with a key or code, but the exit always opens freely from inside.

What this work can involve

Supplying 60-minute fire-resisting steel doorsets for the compartment walls set out in a building's fire strategy.
Installing a steel staff entrance door with an overhead closer and keypad access beside a loading bay.
Fitting a louvred double steel door to a plant room or electrical switch room to keep it ventilated and secure.

Door rules for workplaces in England

Doors in Stafford workplaces are covered by regulation 18 of the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992: a door that can be pushed open from either side must give, when closed, a clear view of the space close to both sides, which is why swing doors on traffic routes have vision panels. Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.

Planning the work around your site

Can our Stafford fire exit be locked from outside?
