UNICORN LETTERPLATE UNVEILED

»»
Leading hardware manufacturer, the Trojan Group, has once again enjoyed an outstanding FIT Show.
Tony Chadwick, Trojan’ s Group Managing Director said,“ Customers were extremely interested in our latest products, the 2 Star High Security Stainless Steel Door handle, the Athena range of door hinges and the unveiling of our new product, the TS008 Document Q Unicorn Letterplate.”
The biggest attraction was the new TS008 Unicorn Letterplate. Trojan chose the FIT Show to showcase this new product, which is one of the industry’ s few TS008 approved letterplates. The heavily patented
Stainless Steel Unicorn letterplate meets the requirements of TS008, which means it can be used on doorsets that need to comply with the requirements of PAS24: 2016 or Document Q of Building Regulations.
The TS008 Unicorn Letterplate has simple but elegant styling that will complement any doorface and is suitable for both composite and PVCu doors. It is available in a full choice of external finishes including Polished, Brushed and Satin Stainless Steel, PVD Gold, Black and White. The internal letterplate can be colour coded to match the door colour.

FUTURE SMART HOME TRENDS

»»
Smart home security was the focus for Yale at this year’ s FIT Show, and this was a decision that proved to pay off as the stand scooped the award for‘ Best Stand Under 80m2’ at the FIT Show Awards.
The security experts showcased their exciting range of connected security products on stand, as well as presenting a seminar slot which saw Neil Vann, Market Regional Manager at ASSA ABLOY UK, discuss future trends in home automation. Paul Atkinson, Sales & Commercial Director for Yale, commented:“ We always support our customers at the FIT Show, however the main reason we decided to take a stand ourselves this year was to showcase our exciting range of connected security products, with the aim of inspiring our customers to consider how they can create business models taking advantage of this trend.”
Paul continues:“ The appetite for smart products amongst homeowners provides fabricators, installers, retailers and housebuilders with an opportunity to invest in new door and window products that will open up lucrative new revenue streams and position their offering at the forefront.
“ We look forward to seeing you all at the next FIT Show in 2019!”
