Protect Lives and Property with Certified Steel Doors

When it comes to fire safety, there’s no room for compromise. At Evolution Entrance Systems, we supply and install steel fire exit and personnel doors across the Midlands, providing critical protection for staff, customers, and premises in the event of an emergency.

Built to meet strict UK fire and safety regulations, our fire exit doors are designed to facilitate fast, safe evacuation while offering robust daily security and long-term durability.

Whether you’re fitting out a retail unit, warehouse, school, or healthcare facility, we can design and install the right solution for your building layout and compliance needs.

Why Steel Fire Exit and Personnel Doors?

Steel fire exit doors are a vital part of any commercial or public building’s safety strategy. They provide a dedicated means of escape during an emergency and act as a barrier to fire and smoke, protecting evacuation routes and minimising risk.

Key Features:

  • Certified fire-rated construction – FD30, FD60, FD120 options
  • Heavy-duty steel leaf and frame for long-term durability
  • Reinforced hinges and hardware for security and strength
  • Panic hardware – push bars or touch bars for fast egress
  • Weather-sealed and suitable for internal or external use
  • Optional access control and alarm integration

All fire doors are built to BS EN 1634-1 fire testing standards and can be tailored to your building’s fire strategy, layout, and aesthetic.

Safety & Compliance Comes First

Fire exit doors are a legal requirement in commercial buildings and must be:

  • Clearly marked and unobstructed
  • Easy to open without the use of a key
  • Fitted with suitable panic hardware
  • Fire-resistant to the required specification
  • Regularly maintained and tested

We ensure all doors installed meet or exceed Building Regulations, BS EN 179 (emergency exit devices), and BS EN 1125 (panic exit devices) where applicable. Our expert team will help you determine the correct fire rating, hardware configuration, and installation location to meet your statutory obligations.
