A little job I had to do today,took about 2 hours in total,which I don’t think is to bad..

Replace rebated door set and panic hardware..

The doors had completely rotted at the bottom and expanded rendering them useless as a fire escape..

Most of my time was spent trying to get the panic bar to work..There where parts missing all over the show,but I managed to get them working half descent in the end..

They can be depending how old the building is…These weren’t to bad as it was a new build but on the other side of those doors there’s was a drop of about 28″ I was struggling to hold the door and get a screw in so I had to use a breeze block to hold the door as I sank the first one,other than that it was plane sailing…
