HARDWARE & SECURITY KASP FURTHER STRENGTHENS ITS COMBINATION PADLOCKS RANGE » DESIGNED AND manufactured to the high standards people have come to expect from Kasp, its range of premium quality combination locks is set to be further strengthened with two exciting new additions. Kasp Series 114 Marine Combination Padlock Available in 30mm and 40mm widths, the new Kasp Series 114 Marine Combination Padlock provides a durable, weatherproof option for a number of outdoor applications; is easy to use and maintain. Featuring a resettable combination for added convenience and security, its mirrored chromed solid brass body and stainless steel shackle provide superior corrosion resistance, whilst rust-free internal components offer an extra level of resistance against corrosion. Kasp Series 116 Disc Combination Padlock 70mm The new Series 116 Disc Combination Padlock 70mm combines superior quality with a closed disc shackle design for increased security against shackle attack. A resettable combination provides added convenience and a 4 digit code offers extra security. A hardened steel shackle also gives that extra protection against hacksaw and cropping attacks and a unique powder coated body ensures maximum resistance against corrosion. www.kaspsecurity.co.uk ASSA ABLOY door closers meet certification demands for uninsulated metal fire doors » AT THE END OF 2017, A number of UKAS accredited authorities withdrew certification for almost all door closers used on uninsulated metal fire doors. While a number of these certifications have since been reinstated, they typically only cover the use of door closers on the side of the fire door that is deemed most at risk. In many instances, it can be difficult to determine which side of the fire door this is. But with ASSA ABLOY’s market leading DC200, DC300, DC500 and DC700 door closers, this is no longer an issue for installers or building owners. Following stringent testing, all these door closer ranges meet the certification requirements for uninsulated metal fire doors, whether fitted on the exposed (fire) or unexposed (fire safe) side of the door. ASSA ABLOY’s door closer range is suitable for up to four hour ratings, eliminating any concerns around whether the door closers meet fire safety regulations for uninsulated metal fire doors. www.assaabloyopeningsolutions.co.uk/doorclosers YALE DWS AND SWC TRADE FRAMES CELEBRATE 15-YEAR PARTNERSHIP » SCARBOROUGH-BASED trade fabricator SWC Trade Frames has been an advocate of Yale’s product range for over 15 years, particularly its multipoint door locks and most recently, its Platinum 3 Star cylinder. Plus, the company was the very first to launch Yale’s new £1,000 anti-snap cylinder guarantee back in July 2019. 36 Mark Catchpole, Sales Director at SWC Trade Frames, comments: “The relationship between SWC and Yale is truly invaluable. After partnering with Yale for so many years, we have developed complete faith in not only its product quality, but also the brand’s dependability. “We know that when we’re using Yale products, everything has been tried and tested to the maximum standards. Plus, Yale’s commitment to informed design, responsible manufacturing and sustainability considerations assures us that we are delivering top quality products to our own customers.” The Platinum 3 Star Cylinder is Yale’s most secure lock yet; so much so in fact that Yale is offering a £1,000 guarantee in the unlikely event that the cylinder is snapped under attack due to a forced break-in. www.yaledws.co.uk MAR/APR 2020 locksmithjournal.co.uk Issue Takeover Magazine Sponsor
