Hardware Extra
3 * security solution with 2 * fully-suited security handle
Brisant Secure is redefining security standards again with the launch the all-new Ultion 3 * security solution ; featuring the new two-star security handle with an Ultion one-star to achieve truly exceptional security and beautiful looks .
» THE FIRST OF ITS KIND , ULTION ’ S security handle has unique seamless curves to prevent burglars using tools to get a grip on it so they can rip it from the door . The fully-reinforced Ultion handle can ’ t be crushed by mole grips either , and the fixings thread perfectly through hardened steel bosses to stop twisting . Inside the handle , a molybdenum cylinder shield - 25 % denser than iron - protects against drilling and lock-snapping , the most common form of attack .
The handle ’ s stylish curves repel the elements and thanks to six coats of corrosion protection , it looks great after a year in the weather test chamber . Most handles just about manage 10 days . Perfectly suited with Ultion ’ s Sweet door furniture , homeowners can choose from a range of seven popular finishes to make an immediate and lasting impression : anthracite , white , gold , stainless steel , black , chrome and rose gold .
When combined with the Ultion Star lock , this two-star handle achieves the maximum three-star Kitemark security , a Police preferred specification , and is backed by Ultion ’ s £ 2,000 security guarantee .
Nick Dutton , CEO at Brisant-Secure , comments : “ Most people would be horrified at how flimsy most door handles are . With the right tools they can be ripped off the door in a few seconds , leaving the cylinder exposed to break-ins . Until now , very few consider using a security handle because they are expensive , unsuited , bulky , and weather badly , which is why few people use them .
“ For the first time , homeowners and installers don ’ t have to choose between security and looks . Now they can have an ultra-secure door handle that withstands violent attacks – have a look at this Master Locksmith doing all he can to break in https :// www . ultionlock . co . uk / security-handle . After watching the locksmith wear himself out , look at the Augmented Reality visualisation . You can see the handle from all angles and in detail : this is no ordinary handle .”
Ultion ’ s new two star security handle will be available from October 2021 .
YALE SUPPORTS FIRE DOOR SAFETY WEEK 2021
Yale once again was proud to support Fire Door Safety Week for the fifth year running , underlining the company ’ s commitment to fire door safety and security .
» THE ANNUAL CAMPAIGN , WHICH ran from 20-26 September , raises awareness of the critical role that fire doors play in saving lives and protecting property . It draws attention to specific issues such as poor installation and maintenance , aiming to engage and educate specifiers , building owners and the public on fire door safety .
Fire doors are one of the most fundamental elements of a building ’ s passive fire protection . They act as the first line of defence in a fire and provide those vital minutes for occupants to evacuate the building safely . In addition , they must provide the required level of security for the building in which they are installed .
Yale has long been committed to working with fire door accredited companies and investing in testing to ensure the fire door meets test requirements . An example of this is the company ’ s new partnership with Falcon Panel Products Ltd , the UK market leader for certified timber doorset components and timber panels , which has opted to take the full range of Yale hardware on its new Stredor external doorset system .
Ideal for housing providers , the Stredor doorset range features the Yale Lockmaster AutoEngage multi-point lock , designed to achieve PAS
24:2016 , FD30 and FD60 when tested as part of a door assembly and tested to exceed 100,000 cycles – the equivalent of 34 years ’ operation .
Adding security to fire safety , the range also includes the Yale Platinum 3 Star Euro cylinder , which has been approved to TS007:2014 and SS312 Diamond Standard and is endorsed by the Police preferred Secured by Design scheme , and the Yale Postmaster Professional FD letterplate , which features an inner flap with a positive stop feature to guard against common attack methods and ‘ fishing ’.
Brett Evans , Technical Director for Door Hardware at Yale DWS , comments : “ We are extremely proud of our suite of hardware for fire doors . Each product in the range can make a huge difference to the effectiveness of a fire doorset , and provides the outstanding security features you would expect from Yale .”
