Hormann Sectional Doors get seal of approval

The industries favourite sectional door is now secured by design as standard so you can add more security to your home.


With immediate effect, Secured by design accreditation applies to the following doors:

EPU, LPU and LTH sectional doors installed with a ProMatic or SupraMatic Series 3 BiSecur operator.

What does Secured by Design mean?

Secured by Design is the initiative from the Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO) that aims to reduce crime through effective environmental design.

 
What does this mean for you?
This accreditation recognises existing german TUV Nord testing, but specifies the operator to be used, and because Hormann have not had to modify the doors or operators in anyway, there is absolutely no additional cost – Hormann are the only manufacturers of sectional doors in the UK market to be secured by Design approved! As well as being a very good solution for house Builders with Secured by Design requirements it is a recognisable and reassuring brand for retail customers, which you can combine with a matching Secured by Design ThermoPro entrance door – another first from Hormann.

Please note that this accreditation applies only to EPU,LPU and LTH Hormann Sectional doors, fitted with any ProMatic or SupraMatic Series 3 biSecur operator. If another operator, even another Hormann operator is fitted, then the compete door and operator is not Secured by Design accredited, Likewise a Hormann operator fitted to another manufacturers door is not accredited.
