With proven window and door security vital for any building project, DOVISTA (UK) LTD is delighted to announce that it has formally joined the official police security initiative Secured by Design (SBD).
DOVISTA is the recent merger of VELFAC and Rationel, two established window manufacturing brands and long-standing members of the SBD scheme.
DOVISTA is the leading supplier of bespoke windows and doors for domestic, multi-unit residential, and commercial projects. The distinctive VELFAC composite system combines external aluminium with internal timber in a slim framed-design renowned for its contemporary style, high performance construction and impressive security. Scandinavian design is the inspiration for Rationel windows and doors, which are available in both wood and composite wood/aluminium. Rationel has also established a reputation for quality, and for products which are durable, energy efficient and secure.
VELFAC and Rationel products have been SBD-certified for a number of years as they offer a range of security features designed to prevent forced entry, including multi-point espagnolette locks, robust hinges, locking bolts and receivers, and glazing beads which prevent glass removal from the outside.
Commenting on the updated agreement, Andy Trewick, DOVISTA (UK) LTD Technical Director, said: “We are delighted to continue our relationship with Secured by Design which has always recognised the important role of quality products in improving security for residents and business owners. We are proud that both VELFAC and Rationel products continue meet demanding SBD standards, and we look forward to working with SBD as DOVISTA (UK) Ltd.”
