- Hinge options. Rising-cam gravity hinges or spring hinges matched to leaf weight.
Examples of work we can quote for

Door rules for workplaces in Scotland
Doors in Lerwick 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 Fire (Scotland) Act 2005 and the Fire Safety (Scotland) Regulations 2006, emergency exit doors must open easily and immediately in the direction of escape.
