Challenging Corrosive Environments
Locking hardware is a crucial element in ensuring that panic, emergency escape, and fire doors operate correctly and can protect personnel and assets.
Corrosion can be a threat to the effectiveness of locks and other hardware on doorsets that are exposed to corrosive environments and all-weather conditions. Over time, this can cause life safety products to reach a point of critical failure.
These challenges are common for coastal and offshore facilities. Hardware facing these conditions requires regular maintenance or replacement, resulting in significant costs for the end user in terms of hardware and labour, as well as potential lost production time.
