Options that matter on site
- Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
- Complete doorsets. Frame, leaf, hinges and hardware supplied as one set.
- Panic hardware. Push bars to BS EN 1125 where the public or unfamiliar people may use the exit.
- Fire-rated doorsets. Where a door must hold back fire, we supply tested fire-rated doorsets and fit them exactly as specified.
- Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
Examples of work we can quote for
- Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
- 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.
Which workplace rules apply to these doors?
For premises in Newcastle upon Tyne, 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 Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, 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.
Keeping your site running during the work
Most installations in Newcastle upon Tyne can be phased so part of the site keeps working. We agree access routes, exclusion zones and any temporary security with you before the team arrives, and can work early mornings, evenings or weekends where the business needs it.
