Fire exit doors in Wednesfield, done to the evidence
Our fire exit doors service covers Wednesfield and the wider West Midlands area. Every job starts with a survey of the openings, so the quote reflects your actual doors rather than a guess.
Buildings in and around Wednesfield range from care homes to houses with integral garages and schools. Whatever the building, the standard is the same: certified products, correct gaps, seals and closers, and a frame sealed to the wall.
Before quoting for an exit door in Wednesfield, we check whether it needs fire resistance, so you only pay for what the strategy requires. Exit doors in Wednesfield can be fitted with outside access and alarm options that never stop people getting out.
Security without blocking escape
Exit doors need to keep intruders out while letting people out in seconds. We can fit outside access devices, alarmed hardware and access control interfaces that do not stop the door being opened from inside. Any of these on a fire-rated exit door must be covered by its evidence.
Each installation includes:
- Single and double exit doors in steel or timber
- Weather and threshold detailing
- Outside access devices and alarmed options
- Assessment of whether fire resistance is required

In higher-risk buildings, building work is overseen by the Building Safety Regulator, so we check whether approval is needed before starting.

What happens on a survey in Wednesfield?

Do fire exit doors need closers?
Final exit doors often have closers for security and weather reasons. If the exit door is also a fire door, a closer is normally required to keep it shut.
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.
