The whitepaper covers key topics of fire door safety. These include the purpose and effectiveness of fire doors, fire door regulations, manufacturing and installation, and will be available to download from www.marketing.assaabloy.co.uk/fire-door- white-paper.

The fact that 53% of UK imports came from the EU in 2015 shows just how dependent we have been on the EU. BREXIT has called for an increase in UK manufacturing and more than ever it has called on us all to patronize UK products. Doormate is a UK manufacturer, supplier, and installer of quality door products for home, office, shop, factory, etc. Based in Cardiff, South Wales, they are UK’s premier barn door hardware provider. Their products range from sliding door hardware, barn doors, garage doors, composite doors, home automation, tools & accessories, etc. Though established in 2009, Doormate only started manufacturing their own brand of sliding barn door hardware systems in 2015. www.doormate.co.uk Clever Living from the Screen Experts Centor® launches new 345 Folding Door Atlantic Premium Shutters are England’s finest operable and fully functional, maintenance free shutters.

The new Access AutoLatchTM is a key differentiator for the 345. It’s a lever that replaces the traditional door handle and is cleverly concealed from view in the door stile. It is simply lifted to open the doors from the inside while outside, a slimline vertical pull-handle allows panels to be opened with ease.

And similarly, the stylish assembly was chosen to keep extraneous noise out of her beautifully refurbished and extended North London home. Steel Window Service and Supplies Limited was approached by Hannah Mercedes-Carter to fabricate and install the 5.5 metre long screen, featuring two double doorsets, for a rear extension to her house in Hackney.
