UAP LAUNCHES NEW BULLET DOOR CHAIN:
Slimmer, stronger security with a sleek, stylish finish
UAP Ltd, a leading UK-based supplier of high-quality door hardware and security solutions, has launched an innovative new Bullet Door Chain: a next-generation door security chain engineered for strength, style, and effortless installation.
Designed with a thinner yet more durable profile, the new Bullet Door Chain meets and exceeds the latest TS003 security requirements and is fully PAS 24-compliant, delivering robust protection without compromising aesthetics. Featuring a unique bullet-shaped chain end, the force of impact is distributed evenly across the bracket and receiver, reducing stress and enhancing long-term durability.
The chain’ s sleek magnetic park system keeps it securely and neatly in place on the wall when not in use, elevating the look of any door with a polished, design-led finish. Thicker chain links increase overall strength and tamper resistance while maintaining a slim, modern profile that complements contemporary interiors. Available in a range of premium finishes, the Bullet Door Chain comes with pre-fitted fixings, providing the fastest installation experience on the market and saving valuable time on site.
Adam Dixon, Senior Technical Manager at UAP Ltd, commented:“ The all-new Bullet Door Chain is a perfect example of how innovative design and engineering can redefine everyday hardware. Backed by patent applications and protected design rights, it reflects UAP’ s commitment to driving progress in door hardware innovation— combining strength, style, and functionality in one elegant solution.”
