ALUMINIUM
Integrated GFT solution for ‘extreme demands’
» NEW FROM SUSTAINABLE
building envelope specialist, Schüco UK, is an
integrated Ground-Floor Treatment (GFT)
solution that has been developed especially
for high-traffic areas in a wide range of
commercial and public buildings including
colleges, schools and hospitals.
Aesthetically appealing and extremely
robust, the Schüco GFT solution is a
thermally broken pivot door and screen
system, with an overall basic depth of 65
mm. In addition, the system is compatible
with the Schüco FWS façade range and the
Schüco AWS 70 SC window system, making
it a cost-effective solution for ground floor
entrance and reception areas.
“Through conversations with our
customers we spotted the need for a highly
durable and easy to fabricate GFT system
that would surpass the often extreme
demands of education and commercial
buildings,” comments Stephen Jeffries,
Product Manager, Schüco UK.
“Now there is a GFT system that is both
easy to fabricate and highly durable, but also
comes with the added back-up and support
of Schüco UK.”
The Schüco ADS 65 pivot door – which
may be single- or double-leafed, with a
maximum leaf size of 1.1 m x 2.5 m and a
leaf weight of 110 kg – is cleated and further
reinforced with optional tie-rods top and
bottom to maximise durability and minimise
expensive replacement and/or maintenance
costs.
The door can be specified with an
anti-finger trap profile feature and offers a
choice of locking options. Burglar resistance
is certified to PAS 24 across all locking
configurations.
Importantly, the system is fully compliant
with The Equality Act 2010 with a 1100 mm
maximum door width and specific reduced
operating force closer options.
Moreover, the slender 50 mm sightlines
that are a common feature of all the
systems that make up the Schüco GFT
solution believe their unrivalled strength
and durability, making the whole system
the perfect choice for high traffic areas in
retail, commercial, education and healthcare
buildings.
