From the KT12 postcode district outwards, we take on commercial fire doors across Walton-on-Thames for homes, blocks and workplaces.
Fire doors in Walton-on-Thames protect escape routes in care homes, houses with integral garages and schools alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
For commercial buildings in Walton-on-Thames, we coordinate access control and alarm interfaces before the doors arrive. Each commercial door we fit in Walton-on-Thames gets a record your fire risk assessor can use straight away.
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.
As standard, the work covers:
- Glazed and solid options to certification
- Out-of-hours and phased working
- Access control and electric locking interfaces
- Doorsets with veneer, laminate or paint finishes
