Commercial fire doors in New Milton, done to the evidence
If you need commercial fire doors in New Milton, we can survey, supply and install, then leave you the evidence your fire risk assessor will ask for.
Fire doors in New Milton protect escape routes in small offices, schools and family homes after loft conversions alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Each commercial door we fit in New Milton gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away. Offices, shops and hotels in New Milton can have fire doors fitted out of hours so trading is not interrupted.
Access control and hold-opens
Modern offices and hotels often combine fire doors with access control, electric locks and hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm. Electric locking on an escape route has to release safely, and any holes, cables and devices in the door must be covered by the evidence. We coordinate with your security and fire alarm contractors on the interfaces.
Each installation includes:
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
- Hold-open devices linked to the fire alarm
