ALL ABOUT THE DOOR
ABLOY ’ S APERIO E100 AND SMARTAIR SOLUTIONS ACHIEVE PAS 24 CERTIFICATION
» PAS 24 IS A MINIMUM PERFORMANCE standard developed to address the security performance of doors used in various types of buildings , with a primary focus on residential structures . It sets out stringent criteria to test the resistance of doorsets against forced entry attempts .
Abloy ’ s Aperio E100 and SMARTair solutions have undergone exhaustive testing to meet these criteria , including assessments of resistance to physical attacks and other security-related parameters .
Abloy partnered with ABL Doors to test the Aperio E100 Escutcheon with a FD30 Fire Door featuring a Halsan door core , a Yale Auto Engage Lock , a Yale 3 Star Platinum Cylinder , and a Eurospec All Race Hinge Class 13 , combining all products to create a PAS 24 compliant doorset .
PWIDF Doors joined Abloy to test the SMARTAir imax Escutcheon , combining it with a FD60 Fire Door featuring Halspan
door core , an Abloy EL160 lock case , and Yale 3 Star Platinum
Cylinder to meet PAS 24 .
Jason Boyce , Commercial Project Manager at Abloy UK , explains : “ It ’ s important to note that PAS 24 certification applies to the entire door set , meaning that all components must work together seamlessly to meet the standards ; the frame , hinges , locks , handles , and any additional components .
“ Therefore , when specifying or purchasing PAS 24 certified products , it ’ s crucial to ensure that they are part of a complete door set that has been tested and certified as a whole .
“ The Triple Scope certification and the severe duty rating of the doorset is a game changer , and gives architects , contractors and specifiers the peace of mind that the full door set is not only compliant , but secure , and with the added value of battery-operated access control .”
Abloy ’ s partnership with door set manufacturer Halspan has also helped the aforementioned Aperio E100 doorset to meet Triple Scope certification . This involves durability cycle testing to severe duty performance , meaning certification for Fire , Smoke and Enhanced Security ( PAS24 ), as well as proof that the door is suitable for harsh environments with repeated opening and closing .
