Engineering
Single leaf and unequal double leafThe range draws a single-leaf fire door for classrooms and wards, and an unequal double leaf where a wider opening has to keep a narrow active leaf.
B1 flame-retardant leaf with a honeycomb coreA B1 flame-retardant board over a honeycomb core keeps the leaf flat across a school door and light enough for a self-closer.
Vision panels where they helpPart of the range is drawn with a vision panel, so staff can see into a classroom or a patient room before they open the door.
Accredited fire certificationCompliance is listed to AS 1905.1:2015, AS 1530.4:2014, EN 1634-1:2014+A1:2018 and CAN/ULCS104 with UL listing and the Intertek, CE, BS, IAS, FSC and HKAS marks.
Specifying for heat and value
African projects are usually specified against two drivers: heat, and the total landed cost of the glazing line. Single-glass build-ups cut weight and freight in the container; insulating units step in where comfort or acoustics are required. Both run on the same frame, so the build-up is a line on the quotation, not a different product.
Wall thickness and finish are the second lever. The 6063-T5 sections in the range are extruded in-house, and the anodised and thermal-transfer finish lines are the standard shortlist.
Full-container loading
The container is the unit of supply: a full box of modules for one phase, packed upright with edge protection, with the loading plan drawn against your opening schedule.
Transit to the port of discharge, and the documentation for clearing, travel with the shipment. Transit times are confirmed per route at quotation.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Do you ship to West and East Africa?
Yes. Full-container loading is the standard supply unit, and the loading plan for your opening schedule comes with the quotation.
Can we mix single and insulating glass in one container?
Yes. The glazing build-up is specified per opening on the schedule, so one container can carry both configurations; the mix is confirmed in the loading plan.
What is the institutional fire-rated door?
It is a range of single-leaf and unequal double-leaf fire doors for schools and hospitals, marked at 20, 45, 60 and 90 minutes and certified as one assembly.
Which fire ratings are available?
The catalogue marks the range at 20, 45, 60 and 90 minutes. Values are catalogue fire ratings, quoted against the opening and the wall type.
