Installation of Fire and Escape Doors
This service varies from site to site. To convert an existing Class A door to B or B to D is a lot different than changing a Final Exit Door.
1. The frames are married up to the door.
2. Frame thickness and installation vary from Class A-E
3. In many cases, upgrading one door, will require upgrading all.
Best you refer to the Fire plan first.
Door-only replacing on Class A, B, C, D, or E doors can be done if only the door is compromised
Escape Doors or Final Exit Doors are a bit easier. Doors can be purchased or custom-made as long as they fall within the Standard minimum requirement.
Fire and Escape Door Hardware: Panic Hardware (Referred to as Push-bar or Slambar) comes in various models from various manufacturers. We prefer models from Dormakaba, Iseo, Geze, Cisa, and Assa Abloy.
