HARDWARE
BOTTOMS UP
» » P C HENDERSON IS PLEASED TO
announce the launch of its much anticipated
Securefold Bottom Rolling hardware – a folding
door solution that carries the load of the doors
at the bottom of the system, removing the need
for major structural building support.
Designed for timber framed exterior doors,
the new hardware is ideal for applications
where top hung structural support is often
lacking such as in conservatories, extensions,
orangeries and outbuildings. Securefold
Bottom Rolling allows P C Henderson to cater
for a much more niche type of market where
perhaps product options for end users are
slightly limited.
As well as utilising advanced bottom
rolling technology, the system also features
some further innovative design elements,
including the roller being purposefully
situated directly underneath the door
making it barely visible when the doors are
closed. Eliminating the need for an often-
restricting upper beam also frees up design
space – a feature which may be of interest to
architects and designers.
Fergus Pickard, Product Development Director
at P C Henderson, comments: “The system is
extremely easy to install as it uses pre-existing
components from the Securefold range.”

Do your suited cylinders meet
Kitemark requirements?
» » YALE DOOR AND WINDOW
Solutions is now offering a re-pinning
service that maintains the British kitemarked
accreditation of its maximum security Platinum
3 Star cylinder.
Yale’s Platinum 3 Star cylinder is Secured
by Design approved and provides the highest
level of security. To achieve TS007:2014 3 Star
accreditation it has been independently tested
by BSI (British Standards Institution) against
known cylinder attack methods.
Paul Atkinson, Sales Director for Yale Door
and Window Solutions, comments: “Under this
new offering, customers who take the Platinum
3 Star cylinder can now have it at our Centre
of Excellence for Door Products (Willenhall)
under our BSI kitemarked license. This means
there is no compromise to the cylinder as it still
maintains the superior Yale quality and security
and, more importantly, maintains the Kitemark
accreditation. If cylinders are suited and re-
pinned by non-accredited organisations they no
longer qualify as Kitemarked products.”
Delivering multiple benefits to fabricators,
installers and homeowners alike, the maximum
security Platinum 3 Star cylinder has been
designed to protect homes with its anti-snap,
anti-bump, anti-pick, anti-drill and anti-pull
technology. Available in both brass and nickel
finishes, the cylinder has sacrificial break away
front section designed to release if attacked.
