Whitepaper teaches the considerations
for education settings
» » ASSA ABLOY UK SPECIFICATION HAS
issued a whitepaper to provide a guide
to the specification of doorsets and
associated hardware in nurseries, schools
and universities.
Entitled, ‘Specification considerations
for education buildings: doors and
ironmongery’ the whitepaper outlines
the various relevant standards when
specifying doors and ironmongery for
education projects, including those
relating to accessibility and usability.
The paper also covers whole life
costing implications and why these
considerations are imperative for a
successful specification, as well as
discusses how architects and contractors
within the education sector can contribute
to a better built environment by factoring
in health and wellbeing influencers.
David Shields, National Specification
Manager for ASSA ABLOY UK
Specification and the author of the paper
said: “In a procurement environment with
multiple stakeholders where funding is
tightly controlled, education buildings
have to be flexible and
future-proofed. They need
to deliver cost certainty
and the highest standards
of specification.
“This is why contractors,
architects, local education
authorities, facilities
managers and head
teachers are often pulled
in very different directions
when it comes to product
specification for education buildings.
“This whitepaper aims to provide
clarification, along with practical advice
and unique considerations, specifically
for doorset and ironmongery specification
within education settings.”
With a wealth of experience supporting
specifications within the education
industry, ASSA ABLOY UK
Specification works with
architects, contractors and end
users to ensure the right solution
is provided for each individual

guaranteed for up to 20 years. This
