Door hardware training
8th November 2016

A new RIBA-approved CPD module has been produced for architects and specifiers by the Guild of Architectural Ironmongers (GAI).

The module focuses on all aspects of accessibility legislation and standards and their impact on the specification of door hardware. This includes advice on meeting the requirements of the Equality Act, BS 8300: 2009, and Approved Document M and its equivalents throughout the UK and Ireland. It covers the impact of BS 8300, specifically on products such as door closers, automatic door operators, door furniture and hardware such as hinges, locks and panic hardware, as well as access control products and handrails, and visual contrast and light reflectance values.

As the training is RIBA approved, architects will be able to receive double learning points for attending a presentation of this CPD.
