Avansa Staff Entrance Door

⚙️ Technical Specs

The Avansa Staff Entrance Door is a G1-rated unit, specifically engineered for high-traffic business environments like supermarkets and large chain stores. The door features a commercial Masonite finish on the inside, complemented by durable galvanised cladding on the exterior, ensuring both aesthetics and resilience against the elements. The frame is constructed from robust 100mm x 50mm x 3mm mild steel tubing. This frame is fully welded for superior strength and powder-coated for enhanced longevity and corrosion resistance.

For enhanced security, the door is fitted with a Roton Continuous Geared Hinge. This innovative hinge design eliminates any gap between the door and its frame, making it impossible to pry open or remove the door from its hinges. Ironmongery includes a reliable CISA 60mm backset keylock, providing secure access control. An aluminium back-to-back 111mm pull handle ensures easy operation. Proper installation is crucial for optimal performance; the door and frame unit must be installed perfectly square, true, and plumb with the door in a closed position.
