Questions from Wolverhampton 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.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Wolverhampton?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Wolverhampton is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

Are fire exit doors fire doors?

Not always. Final exit doors to open air often are not fire-rated, but they must still open easily and be maintained.

Yes. As well as Wolverhampton itself we cover nearby towns including Wednesfield, Willenhall and Tipton.
