Abloy Security will be attending the MLA GMEX exhibition to promote its revolutionary new multi-function electric DIN lock technology.
For many years Abloy Security has been providing installers, specifiers and suppliers with simple yet high security solutions. Now, the company has extended its range of security products to include its new multi-function electric DIN locks, which provide optimum levels of security and safety while enabling stockists to reduce the cost and complexity of stocking multiple lockcase types, ultimately offering the potential to increase customer service.
As well as reducing the time required for both specification and installation the range offers, among many other benefits, the potential to reduce stock holding significantly throughout the delivery chain by up to 90%.
Designed for the simplest specification and installation possible, the multi-function properties of the range caters for all possibilities in a single lockcase. The locks are non-handed, 12-24V, fail locked or unlocked, with all of these options being easily field selectable during installation.
In addition, the locks are available with a choice of motor or solenoid operation, can be fitted to all type of timber and metal doors, and be used to retrofit their equivalent lockcase within the previous series.
Having recognised that standards and guidelines are a key deciding factor when specifying electric locks, not only to ensure compliance but also to offer complete peace of mind, ABLOY has developed the range to comply with the latest EN standards. These include EN179 and EN1125 for emergency and panic exit doors and EN1634-1 for fire resistance.
Additionally, the locks are CE marked and have been fully tested to the impending standards for burglary, prEN1627, and mechanical resistance, prEN12209-1.
Also on show will be FAP8, a new, innovative push bar that is suitable for all types of public buildings. This latest concept in push bar design combines high-level security and fire safety with aesthetics for a truly functional panic exit device with an attractive modern look.
Security is provided by, an innovative new roller and pin bolt design that wraps around the strike. This allows the door to be opened with less force, improving safety and ease of operation.
In addition, the new bolt design gives increased resistance to break-in as it absorbs strain, resisting a pull force of up to 980Kg from the outside. In addition a selection of ABLOY door cylinders and padlocks will feature using the latest in two-way mechanisms ABLOY PROTEC. Patented until 2019, this pickproof cylinder mechanism provides even greater security, offering the most extensive master-keying possibilities available today.
Also on show will be a selection of rim and mortice locks, automatic swing door operators, Eff Eff strikes and electro-magnets.
