What are the legal requirements for fire exit security?

The minimum standard for fire exit and fire door security is laid out in the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, commonly known as the Fire Safety Order (FSO). With regards to fire exits, the requirements are as follows:

  • Emergency routes and exits must lead as directly as possible to a place of safety;
  • In the event of danger, it must be possible for persons to evacuate the premises as quickly and as safely as possible;
  • The number, distribution and dimensions of emergency routes and exits must be adequate having regard to the use, equipment and dimensions of the premises and the maximum number of persons who may be present there at any one time;
  • Emergency doors must open in the direction of escape;
  • Sliding or revolving doors must not be used for exits specifically intended as emergency exits;
  • Emergency doors must not be so locked or fastened that they cannot be easily and immediately opened by any person who may require to use them in an emergency;
  • Emergency routes and exits must be indicated by signs;
  • Emergency routes and exits requiring illumination must be provided with emergency lighting of adequate intensity in the case of failure of their normal lighting.

Fire Protection Online can help you meet these requirements with our product range.

Our fire exit door security range

When planning fire safety in the workplace, you can't afford to overlook any aspect of your fire escape procedure, from first discovery to final extinguishing. This is particularly true for your fire exit door provision; if your staff cannot get out quickly and easily, precious minutes may be lost.

Of course, the dilemma is that in this day and age, your premises also need to be secure, and so our range of fire exit items are designed to help make emergency exits swift - and prevent unwanted entries!

We stock a range of fire exit security measures, including:

  • The Redlam panic bolt with Ceramtube, which allows safe exit via panic bolt systems, with no broken glass involved. The Ceramtube is ideal for all areas including kitchens and fits all break glass tube exit systems.
  • Lifehammers: In today's double-glazed and toughened glass world, it's surprisingly hard to smash a pane of glass easily! A lifehammer is ideal for carrying in vehicles, whether your car, coach or staff minibus, in case an emergency occurs.
  • If your fire door requires a key, it's hard to beat a traditional break glass key box for an instantly recognisable means of escape. Coupled with a hammer and chain, it provides a quick method of escape that still maintains your security.
  • Smart Shield exit stoppers: The temptation to just pop through a fire exit door during a staff smoke break can be common, so prevent unauthorised use of fire doors with an alarmed Exit Stopper. These units are also ideal in retail premises for preventing shoplifters making a sneak escape via the fire exits even when locked by panic bolts.
