They have been members since 2001 and have developed their Police Preferred Specification composite doorset range significantly over the years.

“Hallmark Doors & Panels currently have a portfolio of composite doors that meet a range of performance ratings, several of which are related to the golden thread of life saving attributes - enhanced security, fire performance and smoke control, amongst others on a single scope of UKAS approved certification.
