Flat entry leafThe series is drawn as a single-leaf fire door for the flat entry, with the leaf, frame and ironmongery matched to one tested build.

B1 flame-retardant leaf with a honeycomb coreA B1 flame-retardant board sits over a honeycomb core, a build that stays flat on a wide leaf and keeps the swing light for a concealed closer.

Closed face for privacyThe entry leaf is solid rather than glazed, with a fire-certified viewer and a fire-certified electronic lock on the standard schedule.

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 apartment fire-rated door?

It is a single-leaf wooden fire door for flat entries and hotel rooms, marked at 20, 45, 60 and 90 minutes and supplied as a leaf, frame and hardware set.

Which fire ratings are available?

The catalogue marks the series at 20, 45, 60 and 90 minutes across the frame and the leaf. Values are catalogue fire ratings, quoted against the opening.
