The Decalu163 Lift-and-Slide door from Deceuninck Aluminium, has completed PAS24 testing at testing house Elements and accredited by BM Trada.
Director Nigel Headford said achieving PAS24:2016 was important against a backdrop of regulatory change.
“The consultation on PAS24:2022 closed in May; the consultation and revision of Part Q is overdue and imminent. Regulatory change, particularly on security, is going to define the market in the years ahead and we’re placing ourselves for it”, he said.
The Decalu Lift-and-Slide Door was launched in 2020. Individual sashes can be manufactured to up to 3900mm by 3500mm. With twin and triple track options, doors can be designed to up to 4000mm by 10,500mm.
It is supplied in marine grade dual, textured and metallic finishes as standard and there’s also a slim interlock option.
PAS24:2016 accreditation makes it the second of Decalu’s door systems to achieve PAS24, after the Decalu88 Bi-fold achieved PAS24 approval a year ago.
Each sash is also able to accommodate weights of 200kg and up to 3m in height, matching the impressive design flexibility of the Decalu163, while guaranteeing ultra-smooth running.
The Decalu163 and Decalu88 also meet requirements for Part L, with U-values as low as 0.8 and 0.68W/m2, respectively.
