Living up to its reputation for innovative design of bespoke, sustainable architectural aluminium systems, Metal Technology has reacted to demand from its fabricator, architect and main contractor partners in developing a security option for the firm’s 520d polyamide commercial door system.

The system, which already carries Pas 24 security and Secured by Design approval for single door applications using standard, electric and panic exit hardware, has now been successfully tested in a double door application with panic exit devices. Metal Technology is one of the first UK companies to test and bring to the market double panic doors with this level of security.

As part of Metal Technology’s continued commitment to Secured by Design, the successful testing to PAS24 of their double panic door will deliver a high-quality solution in educational, residential and commercial applications where the exit strategy calls for a high level of security. The new product complements the Secured by Design accreditation already held for Metal Technology’s range of polyamide thermally enhanced and high insulation window and door range.
