Not content with being the first company to offer a low energy automatic operator in the UK with independent fire certification, GEZE UK has now been awarded Certifire certificates for the TSA 160 NT and Slimdrive EMD-F swing door automatic operators for use on timber fire door applications.
This accreditation is in direct response to the success of the Slimdrive SD Servo, which was launched in 1998 and is the first low energy operator in the UK to receive independent fire certification from Warrington Fire, suitable for use on timber doors. It has recently also been approved for use on metal fire door applications.
Part of GEZE UK’s innovative Slimdrive range, the SD Servo is a low energy operator that has proved popular in hospitals, residential care homes, offices and schools. The prestigious Doncaster College development, the Hub, used SD Servos in its corridors to meet the demands of aesthetics, accessibility, sustainability and life safety.
Operations director Simon Bowden explained: “There is nothing more important than life safety which GEZE UK has always prioritised.That’s why we now have three automatic swing door operators that have been independently tested and certified. GEZE UK’s Slimdrive range is well-known for its sleek looks and quality, but now architects and contractors can specify the TSA 160 NT and EMD-F as well as the SD Servo with complete confidence.”
