UAP Ltd, the Greater Manchester-based door and window hardware specialist, is today making its groundbreaking Kinetica Freezeguard range commercially available.  

 UAP is the first manufacturer in the industry to achieve the BSI KITEMARK TS007-1:2024 certification for the range’s 3* euro cylinders, developed in its in-house research and development hub. 

 The new range is certified according to the newest PAS24:2022+A1:2024 security test standard and accredited by Secured by Design. These updated standards ensure locks can withstand extreme tampering, protecting against increasingly sophisticated break-in techniques including freezing, gluing, snapping, drilling, picking, and bumping. 

 While the industry continues to adjust to new requirements, UAP has already delivered fully compliant products that fabricators and installers can rely on. 

Adam Dixon, Senior Technical Manager at UAP Ltd, said: “Our status as the first in the industry to achieve the new BSI Kitemark is testament to our team, who work tirelessly to develop products that meet and exceed security standards. The new Kinetica Freezeguard range shows our commitment to leading the way with proactive security innovation, giving our clients a competitive edge.”
