The new suited collection from ARRONE, a HOPPE brand, has been designed to have mass appeal and provide high-quality ironmongery in a variety of finishes that complement both contemporary and traditional door designs. Selected ARRONE door handles, knockers, letter plates and numerals are part of the suited range and are now available in seven new finishes including greys, traditional metals, black and white. The range makes it as easy as possible for homeowners to be offered the latest design trends without compromising on the quality and functionality of the product. There are two different styles of the knocker, both with and without a viewer, and four styles of pull handle to choose from. While looks are important, security and long-term performance is a priority. There is also a security shroud that protects the cylinder and is sufficient to prevent access and acts as a visual deterrent. At the heart of the collection is the AR7550 lever handle which has a 10.7mm backplate depth. The standard size of the backplate means it will cover the majority of lock applications, to make replacing existing handles easy. There is also a security shroud that protects the cylinder and is sufficient to prevent access and acts as a visual deterrent. As part of its commitment to high-quality products, the ARRONE AR7550 handle has been tested to 200,000 cycles and has a 10-year mechanical operation guarantee, as long as assembly and maintenance guidelines are followed. It has also achieved the highest corrosion resistance grade under BS EN 1670 making it suitable for use in exposed marine atmospheres. Colour matched fixings come as standard, and a version of the range is also available for PVC doors.

New Extra Strong Door Restrictors from UAP Provide Robust and Simple Security Solution UAP Ltd, the specialist in hardware and locking solutions for doors and windows, has launched a new range of Extra Strong Door Restrictors to help people feel safer in their homes. Designed as an alternative to the traditional door chain, the Extra Strong Door Restrictors from UAP allow people to communicate with visitors while preventing entry. This enables them to check the identity of visitors and safeguard against forced entry, giving them the confidence to answer the door and open it fully once they are satisfied there is no threat. A robust solution, manufactured from zinc, with a one-hour fire rating, the Extra Strong Door Restrictors have been designed by UAP’s in-house product development team to enable ease of use by people with arthritis or restricted hand movement, making them particularly suitable for the elderly and vulnerable householders. Julian Roberts, Technical Services Director at UAP comments: “Many older people and those living alone feel anxious about answering the door without knowing who is calling, and this anxiety has increased during the pandemic when there have been fewer visitors and less social contact. “The UAP Extra Strong Door Restrictors offer a much more robust defence against forced entry than traditional door chains, with a solid bar that secures the door in an ajar position. They are also less fiddly to use too.” The UAP Extra Strong Door Restrictors range is ideal for social housing, retirement village and assisted living environments, as well as private homes, providing a simple and effective way to help residents feel more secure in their homes. The products are available in polished chrome, polished brass and polished satin nickel finish to deliver an aesthetically pleasing match with new or existing hardware and home décor choices.
