The building regs are your first point of call for the basic regs, tis not for the faint hearted though: http://www.planningportal.gov.uk/Pp...gportal.gov.uk/uploads/br/BR_App_Doc_B_v2.pdf
They can be locked from both sides and they need no ironmongery on the outside but must be openable by a non key operated method eg push bar or thumbturn etc from the inside so that you don't have to rely on the keyholder in an emergency. Obviously they can be linked to the burglar alarm though. Any ironmongery supplier will be be able to supply ironmongery for use on an escape door.
