Fire exit doors for Gorseinon buildings
When you book fire exit doors in Gorseinon, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Around Gorseinon, small blocks of flats, light industrial buildings and houses with integral garages all depend on fire doors that close, latch and seal. We survey each opening and tell you plainly which doors need work and which don't.
Before quoting for an exit door in Gorseinon, we check whether it needs fire resistance, so you only pay for what the strategy requires. Exit doors in Gorseinon can be fitted with outside access and alarm options that never stop people getting out.
Panic bars or emergency hardware?
Panic hardware to BS EN 1125, such as push bars, is designed for places where members of the public may be present and may not know the building. Emergency exit hardware to BS EN 179, such as push pads or levers, is for areas used by trained staff who know how the exit works. The right choice depends on who will be using the door in an emergency.
Each installation includes:
- Commissioning and handover
- Outside access devices and alarmed options
- BS EN 1125 panic hardware or BS EN 179 emergency hardware
- Weather and threshold detailing
The regulations behind fire doors in Gorseinon
Because Gorseinon is in Wales, we work to the Building Regulations as they apply in Wales and to the Welsh version of Approved Document B. The responsible person duties under the Fire Safety Order 2005 still apply to workplaces and common parts.
England's fire door checking rules for tall residential buildings do not apply in Wales, so the checking frequency for doors in Gorseinon comes from your fire risk assessment.

Questions from Gorseinon
Do you work in Gorseinon?

Which is better, a push bar or a push pad?
Push bars (panic hardware) suit public areas; push pads and levers (emergency exit hardware) suit areas used by trained staff. The choice depends on who will use the door in an emergency.
Do fire exit doors have to open outwards?
Exit doors generally open in the direction of escape, especially where many people use them. Your fire strategy or risk assessment sets the requirement for each door.
