Glyngary partners with VBH on door solution
16 August 2018Timber fabricator Glyngary has partnered with VBH to develop a PAS24 certified door solution. Glyngary, a family-owned window and door fabricator since 1985, saw an opportunity to develop a door specification and security hardware package that it says helps it stand out from competitors. The partnership also includes Yale and Accoya modified timber.
Glyngary wanted a long-lasting product using hardware that could match the performance of Accoya. VBH’s stainless steel greenteQ Coastline range is corrosion resistant, has a long-projected lifespan, a proven security record and a 25-year guarantee, so it was the obvious choice, said the company.
It was used with the stainless-steel Yale Mantis 3 multipoint door lock which is also corrosion resistant. The range is made from Grade 304 stainless-steel, so it’s exceptionally resistant to corrosion even in the harshest conditions. This is particularly relevant when using Accoya as, in common with most durable timber, there is a small amount of acid present in the wood, which will attack base metal fittings.
The Coastline range is also covered by the company’s comprehensive Q-secure security performance guarantee, which makes it ideal for compliance with PAS24.
“The support we’re getting from VBH, Yale and Accoya throughout the testing process is very valuable to us, as it will result in compliant products,” said Gary Yates, director of Glyngary.
