What steel fire doors in Rhondda should include
When you book steel fire doors in Rhondda, the aim is simple: doors that close, latch and seal as tested, with records that prove it.
Fire doors in Rhondda protect escape routes in industrial estates, high-street shops and schools alike. We adapt the programme to the building and its occupants, never the standard of the installation.
Plant rooms, bin stores and warehouses in and around Rhondda often call for steel doorsets that can take knocks and damp. We anchor and seal steel frames in Rhondda buildings to the manufacturer's instructions and photograph the work before it is covered.
Where steel fire doors are the better choice
Steel doorsets cope with impact, damp and rough handling better than most timber doors. They are a natural fit for plant and boiler rooms, refuse stores, car park lobbies, workshops and warehouses. Many steel doorsets are available in ratings of 60 minutes and beyond where the test evidence supports it, which suits the higher-rated walls around plant spaces.
Each installation includes:
- Powder-coated finishes
- Factory-prepared hinges and hardware
- Single and double steel doorsets
- Locks, closers and panic hardware as specified
