The letterplate has been independently certified to the latest TS 008:2022 standard , which requires a restricted flap to prevent access through the letterplate via fishing or reaching , without constraining access for postal items .
With over 200 perfectly matching hardware products in up to 13 different finishes within the extensive Fab & Fix portfolio , locksmiths can further extend their offering by stocking additional door furniture , such as knockers and numerals , in the same finishes and styles to stand apart from competitors and fulfil the specific requests of each customer . This includes knockers in popular styles such as bull ring , horsetail , spire and urn , that suit a diverse style and age of properties .
However , it ’ s important that the hardware delivers both style and substance . By stocking and fitting hardware that has undergone extensive anti-corrosion testing , locksmiths can be confident the products they are recommending deliver the highest possible standards of durability and longevity .
Here locksmiths should look for hardware that has undergone rigorous testing that goes beyond neutral salt spray testing . ERA ’ s prohesion testing process includes an electrolyte spray sequence with drying cycles at high temperatures to concentrate salt deposits , achieving real world accelerated testing . As a result , the Fab & Fix unique Hardex finish is supplied with a 10 year function , finish and security guarantee .
By choosing hardware that is available as individual items and supplied in 100 % recyclable cardboard packaging , rather than bulk packed , locksmiths can also conveniently store the products in the back of their van to quickly and easily upsell , whilst providing homeowners with the highest possible standards of protection .
