What to specify
- Outside access. Key or code access from outside while the exit stays free from inside.
- Security options. Hinge bolts, multi-point locks and LPS 1175 rated doorsets.

- Galvanised steel. Double-skin galvanised steel leaves with powder-coated finishes.
What this work can involve
- Replacing seized BS EN 179 push pads on staff-only exits in a factory or production building.
- Fitting hinge bolts and a multi-point lock to a steel back door to resist levering and forced entry.
- 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 Bradford, 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.
Access, phasing and timing
Sites in and around Bradford vary from tight trade counters to large distribution yards. The survey records access for our vehicle and platform, overhead obstructions and floor condition so the installation day runs without surprises.

Your questions about steel personnel and fire exit doors
Can our Bradford 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.
Can you fit fire-rated steel doors in Bradford?
Yes. We supply fire-resisting steel doorsets with the manufacturer's test evidence for the rating your fire strategy needs, and install them strictly to the manufacturer's instructions, including seals, gaps and approved hardware.
Can a steel door at our Bradford unit be security rated?
Yes. Where an insurer asks for a formal rating, we supply steel doorsets certified to LPS 1175 and install them to the certified specification. Let us know the rating required so we can quote the right product.
