Once installed lock preparations are fire resistant for up to one hour
Newbury, Berkshire, 21 July 2014 – Codelocks, a leading manufacturer of standalone access control products, is now selling fire kit packs for its mechanical and electronic latch locks that when fitted enable the locks to be installed on 30 or 60 minute fire-rated doors. The fire kit pack contains shaped pads of intumescent strips that can be used on new or existing lock installations.
“We’ve been getting more and more enquiries from customers wanting fire-resistant door hardware, and as a result we’ve introduced this quick and easy solution allowing the locks to be used on fire-rated doors,” said Dominic Ryan, Product Manager at Codelocks.
The intumescent strips are easy to fit – adding only a few minutes to the installation time for new locks and approximately 30 minutes for existing lock installations. The fire kit packs cost £10 to buy and are available to order online immediately. The product has been tested in accordance with BSEN1634-1:2008.
