3 PRO INSTALLER OCTOBER 2015 PRO NEWS @proinstaller1 RIGHT ON Q! Shepley French doors with aluminium low threshold are among the very first in the industry to be awarded PAS 24 status – right on cue to meet new building regulations on home security. It means leading REHAU fabricator Shepley has what it believes is one of the only products on the market matching up to the new Document Q requirements on security, as well as the existing Part M criteria for disabled access. Document Q came into force on October 1. Now all doors and windows which offer direct access into new homes must meet official standards, offering greater security to householders and reducing the risk of opportunistic break-ins. Most commonly, the PAS 24:2012 standard awarded to Shepley’s aluminium low threshold French doorsets will be the standard used to class a product as a secure doorset under Document Q. Tim Walker, Shepley, says: “French doors remain right on trend, but the aluminium low threshold required for Part M disability access has proven exceptionally difficult to combine with the necessary level of security demanded by PAS24 and Document Q. “So at a time when the majority of new build developments are asking for French doors, this is a major breakthrough and right on time to meet the deadline.” ‘this is a major breakthrough and right on time’ The French doors, available in REHAU frames with a choice of 13 foil colour options, can now be added to Shepley’s extensive Secured By Design range of products bearing the kite mark KM 569507.
