DOORSEXTRA SECURITY IS KEY »»ENDURANCE® DOORS has now introduced the new, improved Winkhaus autoLock AV3 lock option - which will supersede the AV2 design - for its standard and heritage locking solid and secure composite doors. The new autoLock AV3 from Winkhaus has a number of benefits over the existing AV2, most notably that it’s easier to operate. The automatic locking process on the AV3 is via magnet trigger technology, which ensures that the door always remains securely locked and firmly in its frame, even without additional locking. The AV3 sealing elements ensure a dynamic contact pressure independently of the sturdy hooks, such that the door seals remain compressed and the door remains closed in the locked position. Stephen Nadin, managing director of Endurance Doors commented: “The AV3 is an impressive improvement on the AV2 and so we’re actively encouraging customers to make the upgrade. Security is a key driver in the composite door market and with the Avocet ATK 3-Star cylinder and supporting £1,000 guarantee, we can offer one of the most compelling composite door offerings in the market.” www.endurancedoors.co.uk Backing Home Security Month »»HOT ON THE HEELS OF supporting Fire Door Safety Week, Endurance® Doors has been at it again - this time backing National Home Security Month.
