Featuring a sleek, chrome aesthetic, the Conexis ® L1 Smart Door Lock can be unlocked using a smartphone, key tag, key card or phone tag, depending on preference and can be fitted onto any of Anglian’ s PVCu or composite doors with a thickness of 44- 70mm.

FLAIR WINDOWS HAS recently switched fully to the Yale Mantis 3 door lock for its Kömmerling PVCu single and double doors. Originally, Flair used Mantis on just their PAS24 doors but decided to fit them‘ across the board’ following positive feedback from customers and installers.
The locks are supplied by VBH, who provide Flair with greenteQ and Yale hardware for their PVCu and aluminium production lines.
|
The lock is part of a Yale / greenteQ hardware package that has been tested to PAS24 at BSI. The resulting certification enables Flair’ s installer customers to quote for new-build work as they can produce documented evidence that their doors meet the requirements of Document Q.
Adrian Keegan of Flair said,“ The decision to switch 100 % to Yale locks was an easy one for us as it
|
standardises our products at a high quality level and reduces our stock holding.
“ The fact that we can now supply so many PAS24 and Document Q approved products across doors, windows and patios
|
means that we are in a position to quote for larger, more prestigious jobs than ever before, including new-build contracts. VBH have been invaluable in helping us get to where we want to be.”
