The ASSA Evolution lockcase range is the latest from ASSA Abloy Door Solutions.
The range has been designed with the key positioned above the handle and not below to maximise ease of use and comply with the disability access guidelines. Made in laminated steel with a hookbolt design, the lockcases ensure maximum resistance against unwanted entry, i tis claimed, and the bolt-through handle fixing provides strength and durability for use in high traffic situations, according to the makers. The split follower function means access is controlled without obstructing an easy exit, particularly in the case of an emergency, the makers say. The range includes sash locks, roller bolt locks, deadlocks, mortice latches, double nightlatches, emergency nightlatches including a full range of electro-mechanical locks.
Products and accessories in the range are inter-changeable. The range is versatile, it is claimed, with a choice of cylinder accessories, striking plates, rebate kits, security plates, microswitches and door furniture. All locks are supplied in standard case sizes, saving time and cost in door preparation and refurbishment.
