Project Overview: External Doors and Fire Exit Installation at Company Protest Site

  1. Initial Assessment and Site Visit
    The project began with a comprehensive site visit to evaluate the requirements for external doors and fire exits at the Company Protest location. I examined the current door structures, assessed the layout of the building, and identified areas requiring secure external exits and fire protection. During the visit, we discussed the client’s specific needs for the fire exits, ensuring they met safety standards and complied with fire regulations.

  2. Selection of External Doors and Fire Exit Solutions
    After a thorough evaluation, we carefully selected high-quality external doors and fire exit systems that met the necessary safety ratings. These doors are designed to provide a secure and safe exit in the event of an emergency, while also serving as durable, weather-resistant barriers for external areas. The doors were chosen for their ability to withstand external environmental factors and ensure the safe evacuation of individuals during a fire.

  3. Preparation of External Door Frames and Surrounding Areas
    Before installing the external fire exit doors, we ensured the door frames were properly prepared. This included ensuring the frames were secure, level, and in optimal condition to support the installation of the new fire-rated doors. The surrounding areas were cleared of any obstacles, and any structural repairs or adjustments were made to guarantee the doors would fit securely and function correctly.

  4. Installation of External Fire Exit Doors
    With the frames prepared, I proceeded with the installation of the external fire exit doors. Precision was key during this phase to ensure the doors were correctly aligned and securely mounted. The installation included proper sealing to prevent the spread of smoke and heat, which could compromise safety in the event of a fire. The doors were fitted with fire-rated locks, hinges, and hardware to ensure they functioned as required during an emergency evacuation.

  5. Testing and Adjustments
    Once the doors were installed, thorough testing was conducted to ensure proper functionality. I checked the alignment of the doors, the operation of locks, and the sealing of each door to ensure they would provide effective protection in a fire emergency. Any necessary adjustments were made, including ensuring that the door closers were operational and the doors could be easily opened in case of an emergency.

  6. Final Inspection and Compliance Check
    After installation and testing, a final inspection was carried out to verify that the external fire exit doors were fully compliant with fire safety regulations. This included checking that each door had the correct fire rating, was properly labeled, and met the specific fire safety codes for external exits. The installation was carefully cross-checked against local and national fire safety standards to ensure complete compliance.

  7. Client Walkthrough and Handover
    After completing the installation, I conducted a walkthrough with the client to explain the functionality of the external fire exit doors and their importance in ensuring a safe evacuation. I provided instructions for regular maintenance and inspections to ensure the doors remain in proper working condition over time. The client was also informed about the importance of keeping the doors unobstructed and accessible at all times.

Conclusion:
The installation of external fire exit doors at the Company Protest location is progressing smoothly. By ensuring that all doors are properly installed, tested, and compliant with fire safety regulations, we are helping to provide secure and effective fire protection for the premises. This project plays a critical role in ensuring the safety of both employees and visitors, and we are dedicated to creating a safe, compliant, and functional environment for the Company Protest site.
