SBD INTERNAL APARTMENT ENTRANCE DOORSETS

» AHMARRA DOOR SOLUTIONS work is for large scale , new build construction projects for schools , hospitals , airports , hotels , luxury homes , social housing and commercial properties .
Ahmarra has dual certification compliance for both fire and security on its range of SBD accredited internal apartment entrance doorsets , providing peace of mind that the people , property and assets within the building are protected from opportunist thieves , vandalism , attack , fire and smoke .
In order to achieve independent , thirdparty certification , Ahmarra submitted sample doorsets for primary testing to a UKAS accredited testing facility . The tests conducted demonstrated the doors ability to resist fire for at least 30 minutes , as well as an intruder ’ s attempts to gain entry to PAS 24 test standards . Third-party certification ensures doors not only meet stringent security standards , but continue to be manufactured to a consistent quality through regular audit checks .
Ahmarra has manufactured and installed thousands of internal entrance doors for council-led social housing projects and for high-end luxury apartments over recent years .
Vicki Boulton , Ahmarra ’ s Compliance Director , said : “ Ahmarra has developed a range of Secured by Design ( SBD ) internal apartment entrance doorsets that meet PAS 24 : 2016 standards . The security doors are certified under both the BM TRADA Q-Mark Enhanced Security and Q-Mark Fire Door Manufacture schemes . Specified by architects , contractors , housing developers , local authorities and leading social housing providers throughout London and the South East , we ’ ve manufactured and installed thousands of these bespoke doors in a range of homes - from luxury apartments through to sheltered housing .”
Lyn Poole , Secured by Design , said : “ Ahmarra has been a member company of SBD now for nine years , so it gives me great pleasure to say that they have renewed their membership for another three years .
“ There are many benefits to being an SBD member , such as hosting CPDs , opportunity to exhibit at exclusive SBD events like the National Training Event that police colleagues from around the country attend , our social media channels sharing regular updates on member companies news and so much more .”
