Adams Rite, part of ASSA ABLOY Security Solutions, a division of ASSA ABLOY, has supplied panic exit devices for an undergraduate accommodation complex belonging to a University that ranks in the top-10 higher education institutions in the UK.
The University of St Mark & St John is based in the coastal city of Plymouth, and is located on a single campus offering bars, restaurants, shops and state-of-the-art sports facilities. The campus has seen an investment of over £20million over the last few years.
Working with Plym Valley Manufacturing, Adams Rite supplied exit devices for the halls of residences, which cater for almost 500 students. Doorcare South West Limited installed the doors with 960 Series Concealed Vertical Rod exit devices, providing vital panic hardware for the building’s escape routes, CE Marked to BS EN1125. Suitable for aluminium doors, the concealed panic exit hardware uses a rotating top bolt and post type header strike, securing doors from the outside whilst ensuring a safe and swift exit for undergraduates in the event of an emergency.
