LONDON BUILD PREVIEW

DIGITAL SPECIFICATION TOOLS AND CERTIFIED HARDWARE AT LONDON BUILD 2026

Consort Architectural Hardware returns to London Build Expo this November, showcasing new Revit integration capabilities, an expanded Building Information Modelling( BIM) library and a
range of certified hardware solutions in support of local construction professionals.
Consort will showcase its new Revit Plug-in and extensive BIM library, as part of its ongoing commitment to greater digital resource support. The tools have been designed to support more streamlined, data-led workflows by connecting architectural models with door scheduling and hardware specification, helping architects and specifiers improve project coordination in the process.
On stand D140, visitors can explore Consort’ s digital platform, which enables users to upload and analyse Revit models directly within the application. The system interprets, structures and prepares door data for hardware scheduling and features an interactive visual interface with linked 2D and 3D models. Consort’ s expanded BIM library complements this workflow, providing accurate product information to assist with hardware selection and integration into project models. Together, the resources aim to simplify specification, support more informed decision-making and reduce the risk of errors with minimal user input required.
Alongside its digital developments, Consort will present flagship hardware lines for hospitality, commercial and residential projects. The on-stand display will include door controls, exit devices, locks, hinges and general hardware, highlighting product certification, performance and bespoke capabilities. Consort’ s team will be on hand to discuss technical requirements and help visitors identify solutions for project-specific needs.
Visitors can also enter Consort’ s‘ Guess the Ironmongery’ competition for the chance to win a £ 200 Amazon gift card. Attendees will be invited to estimate how many hardware items were supplied for a selected hotel project, reflecting the scheduling and specification tools on display. Entries will be accepted on stand throughout the two-day event, and the winner announced by email after the show.
In addition, Consort will also preview its latest printed product catalogue. The 400 page catalogue brings together the company’ s leading hardware ranges, and has been designed as a practical, customer-focused resource for architects, specifiers and construction professionals.
With a combination of practical hardware solutions, enhanced digital tools and dedicated technical support, Consort Architectural Hardware welcomes visitors to stand D140, next to the London Bar, at London Build Expo 2026.
