Reynaers Cranks Up Safety with New Panic Hardware for Vision 7 Thermal Commercial Door
Enhanced security measures introduced for Vision 7 entryways
In the spirit of bolstering safety, Reynaers Aluminium has amped up the functionalities of its high-performance Vision 7 Thermal Commercial Door by incorporating fresh panic hardware options. These additions include surface mounted and concealed systems, catering to a smooth escape in emergency situations and being available in both push-bar and push-pad varieties[1][2][3].
When it comes to public spaces such as universities and shopping centers, public safety is paramount. To meet this need, Reynaers has rolled out a full-width push-bar option to comply with EN 1125 standards. For buildings where occupants are familiar with the environment, such as offices, a push-pad option aligns with EN 179 standards[1].
A locking lever handle has been introduced in the hardware mix to facilitate outside access on emergency exit doors for single-use scenarios, working in harmony with quick-release bars. Both the surface mounted and concealed hardware options are a perfect fit for doors to the tune of 3,000mm in width and are engineered for robust, dependable performance during emergencies[1].
The addition of panic hardware is the latest chapter in the evolution of the Vision 7 Thermal Commercial Door, a thermal commercial door and framing system that boasts anti-finger trap technology, deep kickplates, and a unique post-installation bottom pivot for effortless onsite adjustments. This innovative design achieves a U-value as low as 1.1W/m2K, making it a versatile option for various building projects[4].
Ian Osborne, Reynaers UK Product Development Manager, shares his thoughts on the new development: "The inception of panic hardware dramatically widens the scope of application for the Vision 7 Thermal Commercial Door, addressing the urgent escape requirements in public areas. Vision 7 is a strategically crafted design with far-reaching capabilities in commercial settings, supported by rigorous testing while maintaining a sleek aesthetic. The inclusion of panic hardware elevates this to deliver a thorough, secure solution."
