Fire exit doors in Carlisle: questions
Is the survey in Carlisle free?
Yes. We measure and schedule your doors at no cost and send a fixed, itemised quote.
Do you cover Carlisle?
Yes. We survey, supply and fit fire exit doors throughout Carlisle and the rest of Cumbria, including CA3 and nearby Dumfries.
Can you work around tenants or staff in Carlisle?
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.

Not in a way that prevents instant exit without a key while the building is occupied. Panic and emergency exit hardware achieves security and escape together.
