UNION, part of ASSA ABLOY Security Solutions, a UK division of ASSA ABLOY, the door opening and physical security product company, has launched its HD72 modular euro-profile lockcases. They cover a range of specifications, including sashlock, deadlock, mortice latch, deadlocking nightlatch, bathroom lock and an emergency escape lock.
Tested to more than three and a half million cycles – 12 times greater than the industry standard – the range’s strength is supported by its superior durability, meeting the BS EN 12209 standard and offered with a 15-year guarantee, the makers say.
The HD72 also features heavy duty springing and a one degree follower. This allows the lockcase to support handles weighing up to 930g, giving specifiers the freedom to be more design-led in projects, while helping to banish drooping levers; a common issue raised by property owners soon after the installation of lockcases, the firm says.
Its stylish design is enhanced via a two-piece square or radius forend, plus a splinter guard for a professional finish. Cast steel latches and deadbolts are also supplied with a durable chrome plated finish as standard. A further five optional finishes are available in stainless steel, chrome and brass.
Karen Hubbard, Product Manager for Mortice Locks at UNION, says: “Our brand is synonymous with quality, reliability and expertise, and the new HD72 modular lockcases range are no exception. Ideal for both first-fit or easily retro-fitted to all doors, helping to save time and money, we are so confident in the HD72’s capabilities that we’re offering the range with a 15-year guarantee. Offering a long service life and proven reliability, our HD72 modular euro-profile lockcases are truly a ‘fit-and-forget’ solution.”
