Options that matter on site
- No power needed. With no electrics to fail, traffic doors keep working with very little upkeep.
- Vision panels. Clear panels at eye level so people see each other before pushing through.
- Leaf choices. Choose a leaf for toughness, hygiene, insulation or appearance depending on where it hangs.
- Hinge options. Gravity or spring closing, chosen to suit the weight of the leaves and the traffic.
- Wear protection. Replaceable kick plates and bumpers protect the leaves where trolleys hit most.
What this work can involve
- Replacing single-swing kitchen doors with stainless-faced double-acting doors and vision panels at eye level.
- Fitting a steel subframe to a lightweight partition so new traffic doors can take repeated impacts.
- Replacing worn strip curtains with hygienic traffic doors in a food production area to make cleaning easier.
Door rules for workplaces in England
Doors in Merseyside 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
If your premises are leased, check whether the landlord needs to approve the work. We can provide drawings and product data for the landlord or managing agent before the order is placed.
