ALPRO’ S FUNCTIONAL 97 pull handles are being used on office buildings at Silverstone Business Park. The park is a high-performance technology and motorsport cluster adjacent to the Silverstone Circuit, which is the current venue for the British Grand Prix.
The handles cater for a broad user base as their wide diameter( 38mm) makes them suitable for both general users and those who may have an impaired ability to grip.

These handles also offer clients the build quality and durability associated with 316 grade and can be satin anodised, satin stainless, polished stainless, powder coated or nylon coated.
Furthermore, they can be used in pair or single arrangement. Many customers appreciate the ability to have an offset bracket that allows

Keith Parry, Sales Director at Alpro, said:“ The sleek lines of these pull handles reflect the fact that fabricators now take account of every detail that contributes to the aesthetic appeal of a building. Silverstone Business Park is a centre of engineering excellence and we’ re proud to be contributing to its appearance.”

New commercial padlocks launched
»»
MASTER LOCK IS NOW EXTENDING its Excell ® range adding the Commercial Excell version that combines the weatherability of stainless steel with the strength of our commercial-grade laminated padlock.
Excell padlocks are much stronger than a general security padlock and offer the toughest material with industrial design to make it highly resistant to attack. The commercial version brings a higher level of weatherability and security for corrosive and caustic environments.
The Commercial Excell padlocks feature a superior pry resistance with dual ball bearing locking and an octagonal chromeplated boron-carbide shackle that is 50 % harder than a hardened steel shackle.
The 304 Stainless steel body cover and stainless steel top and bottom plates offer exceptional weatherability and is ideal for commercial applications.
Presented at Lockex in Coventry, UK last September, Master Lock engaged with a wide ranging audience of both Locksmiths and Distributors thanks to good quality, trusted products and continue to maintain a strong reputation within the marketplace.
Master Lock was founded in 1921 and is the world’ s largest manufacturer of padlocks. The company caters for a wide variety of markets and has been responsible for numerous innovations, including the invention of the laminated steel padlock.
