Maintenance-Free Aluminium Emergency Exit Doors

TS Designs manufactures and installs high-quality aluminium emergency exit doors designed for long-term performance, security, and reliability. Unlike traditional steel doors, our aluminium doors will not rust, and unlike timber doors, they will not rot, warp, or require ongoing repainting.

With a virtually limitless lifespan and an industry-leading 20-year warranty, our PA1 aluminium doors provide a fit-and-forget solution for emergency exits across commercial, industrial, education, leisure, utility, and infrastructure environments.

Replacement Emergency Exit Doors

If your existing emergency exit doors are corroded, damaged, difficult to operate, or no longer fit for purpose, TS Designs can provide a complete replacement solution. We can remove the existing doors and install new maintenance-free aluminium doors designed to improve durability, safety, and long-term value.

Our replacement doors are ideal for upgrading ageing steel or timber doors where ongoing maintenance, corrosion, rot, or poor operation has become a recurring issue.

Emergency Exit Doors for New Build Projects

For new build projects, our aluminium emergency exit doors can be supplied and installed to suit the required opening, specification, finish, and hardware requirements. We work with contractors, developers, architects, and specifiers to provide practical, reliable door solutions that are built around the needs of the project.

Our doors are manufactured to order, helping ensure the correct fit, finish, and performance from the outset.

Creating New Emergency Exit Openings

Where a new emergency exit is required, TS Designs can also support projects where a new opening needs to be created. This is particularly useful for buildings where layouts have changed, additional escape routes are needed, or improved access and safety are required.



From initial survey through to manufacture and installation, we can help deliver a complete emergency exit door solution.
