HARDWARE & SECURITY

» THE SIMPLI ADVANCED ® RANGE from XL Joinery required a high-quality range of door hardware to achieve fire integrity . Through close collaboration with the XL Joinery team , ASSA ABLOY was able to offer the perfect solution , supplying components from UNION , Yale Door and Window Solutions and Lorient – all of which work hand-in-hand to maintain integrity during a fire .

XL Joinery – an established door distributor for more than 25 years – had previously sold its doors and ironmongery separately , and was seeking to launch its first range of fire doors with the components pre-fitted as standard . To achieve this , the company turned to ASSA ABLOY for not only the hardware , but the support behind this to ensure a compliant solution and support around testing and accreditation .

Key to the success of the project was the way in which ASSA ABLOY established and understood the customer solution , before project managing this process , pooling the resources of its UK group business units to make it a reality .

This allowed the company to provide XL Joinery with a combined offering of UNION hinges and door closers ; Yale Door and Window Solutions ’ multipoint lock range , suitable for PAS24 doorsets and assessed at ASSA ABLOY ’ s UKAS testing laboratory ; and Lorient ’ s intumescent and acoustic components , as well as acoustic testing and indicative fire tests .

Sean Williams , OEM Regional Sales Manager for the North & Ireland at UNION , who led the project , comments : “ XL Joinery had the doors , but what they needed was the door sets , with everything that entails in terms of the different components and the testing required . As a Group , we had everything they required , including the knowledge and experience to guide them through the testing process . This meant we were the perfect partner to help them bring the Simpli Advanced range to market .

“ This project was a case of teamwork between the different partners , and while Covid-19 restrictions at times made faceto-face meetings impossible , we always managed to adapt and keep the project on track without delays .”
