YALE’S BLADE REVOLUTION
Yale Door and Window Solutions
has launched the revolutionary Blade
window locking system, incorporating
the company’s patented rotary action
mechanism delivering multiple benefits to
fabricators, installers and homeowners.
The system utilises the distinctive new
technology to offer a fully retracting window
locking system that sits flush within the
eurogroove, eliminating cam clash issues.
During fabrication the profile can be
predrilled to allow the lock and keeps to be
fitted at any time, without pre-marking to
offer a more flexible and efficient production
process. The design also ensures one locking

point height for all profiles, reducing stock
holding for multi system users.
Yale Blade’s rotary locking action reduces
mechanical wear, further eliminating
compression loss and ensuring consistent
weather-sealing performance for the life of
the product; significantly reducing costly call
backs.
Occupying the full depth of the eurogroove,
the Yale Blade provides the window with
increased integral strength for meeting the
stringent requirements of PAS24 and thus
SBD accreditation.
The Yale Blade is in an aluminium
construction for extensive corrosion resistance,
further enhancing product service life, and it is
backed by a 12 year mechanical guarantee.

HOPPE TRAINING
ROADSHOW IS A HIT!
The first ever session of the HOPPE Training
Roadshow has been declared a “massive success”.
Door hardware specialists HOPPE runs
the Roadshow – a mixture of tutorials and
hands on activities – at customers’ premises
throughout the UK. The first company to
host an event was RED Security Hardware
in Grimsby.

The sessions are based around HOPPE’s
RIBA-accredited CPD presentation on Lever
Handles and Liability, plus a very informative
introduction to access control – an area many
specifiers find daunting. But the programme is
not just ‘death by PowerPoint’, there is plenty
of hands-on activities including a Quickfit
Challenge where delegates compete to fit a
pair of HOPPE Quickfit handles in the fastest
time.
“The inaugural HOPPE UK Training
Roadshow was a massive success,” says
HOPPE’s Andy Matthews. “The sessions can
be tailor made for customer requirements,
with a good mix of presentations and practical
hands on interludes. The Quick-Fit quickfit
challenge really gets the participants involved
and brings out their competitive streak!”
