Security and Safety Auditing

Security and Safety Auditing

When considering the security of a premise it is very important to take into account the safety of those who may be in the building at any time. The swift and safe evacuation of occupants in an emergency is enabled by the style and function of exit door hardware.

Legislation (law), dictates what door hardware can or cannot be installed to doors on or within an environment. Be they external or internal doors. Gawler Lock and Key Service understands and promotes the importance of these issues. It is no exaggeration to suggest it could be a matter of life or death. For example: the smoke filled room at the local community hall …..occupants getting to an “EXIT” door only to find it’s deadlocked with locks they can not unlock or are perhaps even out of reach!! Not only illegal but potentially fatal.

The N.C.C. (National Construction Code), formerly the B.C.A. (Building Code of Australia), is a legislated document. Therefore it is Law and must be followed.

Gawler Lock and Key Service is more than happy to visit your premises and assist with the correct selection of locks and exit devices. We can conduct a survey of existing hardware and suggest recommendations/alterations as required. Please contact us discuss your concerns regarding safety/security   compliance.
