New White Papers from Abloy UK open the door to specifiers

Latest News Fri, Jan 13, 2017 12:57 PM

Abloy UK is the UK’s leading expert on high quality door locking and functionality.

It has produced two White Papers aimed at giving specifiers and architects a greater insight into important aspects when choosing a new door system - energy efficiency and compliance.

Abloy UK is promoting a green security message, championing the use of electric locks over door magnets to save energy and reduce emissions.

Raising awareness of the benefits of electric locks is a key message for Abloy UK as it looks to provide solutions that can help businesses and specifiers not only secure property, but also conform to any green agenda in a compliant way.

In this White Paper - Effective and Energy Efficient Access Control in Commercial Buildings - it explores the differences between electric locking solutions and door magnets, in order to discover the best solution when it comes to energy efficient access control.

In the second White Paper - Keeping up with compliance: Escape doors standards - Abloy UK explores why it’s vital that each party (whether an architect, specifier, facilities manager or installer) takes responsibility for ensuring the correct compliant systems are in place to guarantee safe egress for the occupants of the building in the event of an emergency.

When it comes to access control, there is no greater responsibility than specifying the correct locking solution on emergency escape and fire doors. Fitting the correct system can mean the difference between life and death for the occupants.

There is an average of 162 building fires in Great Britain every day, with more than 9,100 fatalities or casualties from those fires , which works out at around 25 a day. What’s more, the London Fire Brigade reported three deaths and 36 people injured in fires in the capital over a three-year period, where fire doors had been replaced, left open or incorrectly fitted.

Abloy UK's product range includes electric locking, cylinder, padlocks, door operators and more. Together, the solutions offer secure, compliant and lasting solutions trusted by organisations throughout the UK, Ireland and worldwide, across a variety of industries – wherever compromise is not an option.
