Doors for schools or other public buildings

We manufacture glass doors, steel doors and wood-effect steel doors for use in schools' main entrances, corridors, classrooms, and storage or utility areas. Doors can be fire rated, and may be fitted with access control systems. For SEN schools we offer our steel doors with an optional reinforced construction, which withstands abuse, yet still looks like a normal door. Talk to us about your requirements today.

Frequently asked questions

What doors are used in schools?

Schools use fire-rated doors on corridors and classrooms, glazed doors and screens at entrances, and robust doors for halls, plant rooms and external access. DoorTechnik makes G15 steel fire doors, reinforced G15 or G20 steel doors for SEN schools, WE15 wood effect steel doors that look like timber classroom doors, SG20 fire-rated glass doors and AC15 acoustic doors for schools, with vision panels, access control and anti-finger-trap hinges as options.
Doors on escape routes and between fire compartments - usually corridor, classroom and plant room doors - need the fire rating set by the building fire strategy. We manufacture school doorsets with 30 minute to 240 minute ratings, tested to BS 476 or BS EN 1634-1.
Yes. Our steel doorsets can be made with a rounded anti-finger-trap hinge stile, which we recommend for classroom, nursery and special educational needs doors. Read about the wood effect classroom doors we made for a special educational needs school on our blog.
