Redeveloped
9th January 2018

YALE has redeveloped its Yale Blade window locking system under the new name of Rapide.

The window lock is said to require as few as six screws and eliminates the need to line up the keeps as with a standard espagnolette lock, due to its long curvature.

Rapide is made from aluminium and is said to have three times the locking surface area of a standard, multi-point or shoot-bolt window lock. The lock has been mechanically tested to withstand 4,500 newtons of force and for corrosion resistance for 480 hours and exceeds 30,000 cycles.

It has also been independently tested to exceed PAS24:2016 and is Secured by Design approved.
