HARDWARE & SECURITY
5X Normal 3 Star Test Standard
Brisant-Secure has purposefully created a lock that is at the
top of its game for quality, durability and performance.
» » RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THAT OVER
85% of door buyers say security is the
most important factor when buying a
door and they’re prepared to pay for high
performance and build quality.
Molybdenum is 25% denser than iron.
In Ultion WXM the two-part plug has
increased engagement with the new
curved cap and this section is moulded
from molybdenum. This is then coupled
with the thicker WXM key. Improved drill
protection is delivered with 20 anti-drill
points and the core shielded with a new
molybdenum plug. Lockdown Mode
becomes Double Lockdown Mode.
The BS EN1303 test requires standard 3
Star locks to achieve 100,000 cycles. If the
lock and key meet the required 100,000
cycles, it can be sold in the UK with this
accreditation. Ultion WXM is still going
strong at 500,000 cycles. It’s the extra
molybdenum that is keeping it going strong.

New additions to greenteQ Aspire range
» » THE GREENTEQ ASPIRE HARDWARE
range, designed for contemporary sliding
doors, has been expanded to include a
new Bi-fold Intermediate Handle, Sprung
Door Handle and Escutcheon Plates.
Designed to operate locks on the
intermediate points of a bi-fold, the
Aspire Intermediate Handle uses
43mm fixing centres, matching most
intermediate locks in the market. It is
suitable for use on aluminium, PVC-U
and timber bi-folds and, standing at only
16mm from the face of the profile, allows
the sashes to fold back neatly in the fully
open position.
Rob Norman, Lifestyle Product
Manager at VBH says: “We introduced
the Aspire furniture range to complement
our hardware offering for on-trend
‘Grand Designs’ styled, oversized and
heavy sashes. With the trend showing
no signs of slowing, the addition of
the Intermediate Handle and Sprung
Door Handles/Escutcheons means
homeowners can benefit from stylish,
contemporary hardware on their front
door and rear bi-fold. Our 10-year
corrosion and mechanical guarantee
comes as standard, and fabricators and
installers can order online via VBH24, or
call their local Area Sales Manager for a
demonstration of the range.”
