Your questions answered

Can you work around tenants or staff in Exmouth?

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 cover Exmouth?

Yes. We survey, supply and fit fire exit doors throughout Exmouth and the rest of Devon, including EX8 and nearby Heavitree.

Do you work for landlords and managing agents in Exmouth?

Yes. We can schedule doors flat by flat, send quotes per property and invoice the managing agent or freeholder.

Can a fire exit door be locked?

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.
