SAFES ESCAPE DOOR SYSTEM TRAINING Abloy UK has launched a new one-day training course to further extend its Academy portfolio - the Escape Door System (EDS) course. » THE SESSIONS, WHICH are held at Abloy UK’s training facility in Willenhall, or arranged off-site, provide thorough coverage of the system installation and software set up, including hands-on practical training. The components of the EDS must all be installed to be compliant with BS EN 13637, the standard for electrically controlled exit systems for use on escape routes, and it is the first stage to control egress on an escape door while complying with relevant standards – as it can immediately restrict access in response to threats, allowing specific at-risk zones to be cordoned off, while still allowing escape. www.abloy.co.uk SECURIKEY OFFERS A RANGE OF RECYCLABLE SAFES Leading physical security supplier Securikey, is dedicated to supplying products that meet customer demand and is now proud to announce that its bestselling range of Euro Grade safes are manufactured from recycled and recyclable materials, in compliance with RoHS and REACH. » THEIR MANUFACTURING facility has operated in compliance with environmental standard ISO 14001 since 2005, with certificates from certification body TÜV SÜD Slovenia.
