Questions about fire exit doors in Burnley

Can you work around tenants or staff in Burnley?

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.

Will I get certificates for the doors fitted in Burnley?

Every doorset is listed in your handover pack with the manufacturer's certificate reference, plus an installation record and photos.

Do you remove the old doors?

Yes. Removal and disposal of the old door and frame is included when we replace a doorset in Burnley.

Which way does a fire exit door open?

Outward, in the direction of escape, where occupancy requires it — most commercial exit doors open outward.
