Fire Escape Ltd are South London's leading specialists in the renovation and repair of existing external metal (steel and cast iron) fire escape stairs for both domestic and commercial properties.
With years of experience in fire escape systems, our company specialises in the repair and renovation of existing external metal fire escape stairs. We offer cost-effective, professionally installed solutions that extend the life of your current fire escape, often at a lower cost than installing new stairs. Our efficient service ensures minimal disruption while providing durable, long-lasting results, earning us the satisfaction of many happy customers.
At Fire Escape Ltd, we take pride in our expertise in renovating and repairing existing metal fire escape stairs. Over the years, we have successfully completed numerous projects for businesses and organisations, showcasing our advanced structural engineering techniques. Metal fire escape stairs are often affected by weather and corrosion, which is why we use only the highest quality materials to ensure reliability and long-lasting durability. Our team of fully qualified engineers works closely with clients to meet their specific needs, ensuring that each repair or renovation is both effective and suited to the environment.
Our Services Include:
Fire Escapes & Disabled Access
Employers are required to ensure their fire escape plans are accessible to all individuals, including those with disabilities, as mandated by various laws and regulations. This includes making necessary adjustments to existing fire escape systems for safe evacuation (Disability Discrimination Act 1995), providing accessible escape routes (Fire Regulations and Fire Precautions Act), and ensuring that both new and renovated buildings accommodate disabled individuals (Building Regulations). Our renovation and repair services for existing metal fire escape stairs help meet these requirements, ensuring that all escape routes are safe and accessible for everyone, including those with mobility, sight, or hearing impairments.
High-Rise Fire Escape Systems
Fires in tall buildings present unique challenges that existing fire escape routes, such as metal (steel and cast iron) external stairs, must be able to address. For example, if smoke and flames block lower corridors, individuals on higher floors may become trapped, or overcrowding on fire escape stairs can hinder the evacuation process. Our renovation and repair services focus on ensuring that these external fire escape stairs are reliable, durable, and capable of accommodating safe, efficient evacuation during emergencies.
Fixed Steel Ladders
Fixed steel fire escape ladders can be a solution when space is limited for a full staircase, but they are generally discouraged by regulations (such as BS5395 and Approved Document K) due to difficulties they present for young children or the elderly. While they are not ideal, fixed ladders still provide a necessary exit route when no other options are available. Our renovation and repair services focus on improving existing metal fire escape stairs to meet safety standards, ensuring accessibility and efficiency for all users, whether through repairing stairs or replacing ladders where necessary. Vertical fire escape ladders are typically used for plant room access, while companionway ladders are more suited for staff evacuation.
... And more.
At Fire Escape Ltd, we are eager to collaborate with clients and professionals, including local authorities, surveyors, architects, structural engineers, and fire authorities, to ensure the best solution for renovating and repairing existing metal external fire escape stairs. We specialise in restoring rusty metalwork, replacing missing treads, and providing a safe, smooth finish. Renovating existing fire escapes is often a more cost-effective option than complete replacement, and we are committed to delivering exceptional service. Our skilled team can conduct thorough fire safety surveys to assess and ensure the safety of your premises.
Our company is widely recognised throughout the industry as the UK’s number one provider of fire escape surveys, fire escapes and disabled access systems, fire extinguishers, high-rise fire escape systems and fixed steel ladders that are proven to be effective and reliable in a vast array of business settings.
Some of the main work that needs doing on fire-escape renovation includes replacing treads on the stairway, replacing bars, wire-brushing rusted parts, removing rusted fixings, putting in new safety balustrades, strengthening the railings, recovering non-slip platforms and upgrading structural supports to the best of our ability.
