Questions from Ebbw Vale clients

Do fire exit doors need panic bars?

Panic hardware to BS EN 1125 is normally used where members of the public or people unfamiliar with the building use the exit. Emergency exit devices to BS EN 179 can be suitable where users are trained staff. The fire risk assessment decides.

How often should fire exits be checked?

Many responsible persons check them weekly as part of the fire log, with a detailed check at least annually.

Can you price remedial work in Ebbw Vale from another company's report?

Yes. Send the report and we will price each line for your building in Ebbw Vale, or revisit specific doors if the report lacks detail.

Does regulation 10 apply in Ebbw Vale?

No. Ebbw Vale is in Wales and regulation 10 is English law. The Fire Safety Order 2005 still requires fire doors to be maintained, and many Welsh landlords follow the same quarterly and annual routine as good practice.
