Fire exit doors in Carrickfergus: questions
Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Carrickfergus?
Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Carrickfergus?
Yes. We phase work in occupied buildings and keep escape routes available. Each door is planned to be removed and replaced the same day; if that isn't possible, the opening is made secure and we tell you in advance.
Do you remove the old doors?

Which way does a fire exit door open?
Outward, in the direction of escape, where occupancy requires it — most commercial exit doors open outward.
