Fire exit doors for Yeadon buildings
We provide fire exit doors in Yeadon (LS19 and the surrounding postcodes), from the first survey through to a documented handover.
In and around Yeadon, fire door work covers everything from small blocks of flats to houses with integral garages. We plan each job around the people who use the building.
Before quoting for an exit door in Yeadon, we check whether it needs fire resistance, so you only pay for what the strategy requires. Exit doors in Yeadon 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:
- Weather and threshold detailing
- Single and double exit doors in steel or timber
- BS EN 1125 panic hardware or BS EN 179 emergency hardware
- Outside access devices and alarmed options

Questions
Do you work in Yeadon?

How quickly can you survey in Yeadon?
It depends on the number of doors and access, but we offer survey dates as soon as we reply to your enquiry. If an inspection has found urgent safety issues, tell us and we'll prioritise.
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.
Can a fire exit door be locked?
It can be secured against entry from outside, but it must open from inside without a key whenever the building is occupied. Panic and emergency exit hardware are designed for exactly this.
