AutoLock innovations and
EN-accredited Fire Doorsets
Winkhaus will
be presenting its
high-quality locking
solutions for the trade,
retail, fire and security
markets, including the
newest addition to its
autoLock collection –
the AV3-E Heritage Plus.
» » DISPLAYED IN A COMPOSITE DOOR,
the AV3-E Heritage Plus is designed for 21st
century living, combining a modern multi-
point locking system with enhanced visual
style. Key features include its Heritage eye-
level cylinder position and a new centre
latch, providing superior operation and
weather resistance.
Its innovative daytime latch can be
operated with a single hand, allowing
flexible entry and exit. For added
convenience, the blueMatic AV3-E
version offers motorised unlocking that
is compatible with all types of electronic
access control systems, ideal for the new
trend of Smart Homes.
Visitors to Hall 7 stand Q30 in May will
also be able to see the AV3-E with the
FAB Slave door lock, demonstrating its
application in a double entrance composite
doorset. The stand will showcase the range
of AV3 locks for composite and timber
doors in both single and double doorset
applications, demonstrating how Winkhaus
can provide advanced locking solutions to
all sectors.
Winkhaus has emphasised its commitment
to the Fire Door market by being one of the
first manufacturers in this sector to offer
products that comply with EN1634-1:2014 CE
requirements for Fire Doorsets.
The company will be introducing its new
FD30 and FD60 Fire & Security composite
and timber Doorsets that have passed
rigorous BS EN1634 Fire Resistance
and Smoke Control, and PAS24 security
testing.
This long-term
‘future-proofed’
safety solution meets
the latest MHCLH
requirements to prove
compliance with Approved
Document B requiring fire compliance
from both sides of the doorset.
This test evidence has been collated
and housed by Winkhaus within a ‘Global
Assessment Document’ and a Q Mark
Third Party certification scheme, meaning
that fabricators can use this evidence to
manufacture doors to these standards
providing they sign up for the Dual Q Mark
Certification schemes for both Fire and
Security.
“As solution providers, we pride ourselves
in offering a broad range of top quality,
reliable and modern products that appeal
to fabricators and installers. In particular,
the Heritage cylinder position shows that
any door design can benefit from the latest
advanced locking systems yet still be
sympathetic to a property’s existing style.
“Our range has evolved to suit all
markets, helping our customers to
differentiate their product portfolios and
create new marketing opportunities with
homeowners,” comments Mike Rushen,
Winkhaus UK Sales Director.

complete without a taste of Winkhaus’
famous daily hospitality. Visitors are invited
for refreshments courtesy of their Barista
