SAFETY & SECURITY 75 Introducing the new RJ007 slimline letterplate for FD30 & FD60
Lorient is delighted to offer a new slimline fire & security rated letterplate into its door hardware protection range. When letterplates are added to fire doors; elements of the fire-resistant door core are removed and replaced with ironmongery which has a higher thermal conductivity. This can create a weak point in the door, where fire can take hold and affect the integrity of the doorset. That’s why fire-rated ironmongery must be used on timber doorsets and be tested to a relevant standard – often accompanied by an intumescent kit. The new slimline RJ007 letterplate from Lorient combines fire and security performance with functionality and aesthetics. Designed to meet the exacting security standards of TS008:2015, it is tested to withstand a series of physical tests based on the common methods of burglary. It features an innovative pivoting stay mechanism that reduces the opening to 37 degrees for protection against key ‘fishing’ and lock manipulation. The RJ007 can provide up to 30 and 60 minutes fire resistance and is tested in accordance BS 476-22:1987; and smoke tested in accordance with BS EN 1634-3:2004. It is CERTIFIRE (CF5688) approved from Warringtonfire Testing & Certification Limited; and is TS008: 2015 accredited and Document Q and PAS 24:2016 compliant.

Doors_DPR.indd 1 Class 1 Magply boards withstand real life fire test 28/11/2023 11:47
A potentially catastrophic blaze, which consumed the garage containing a parked vehicle adjoining a £1M house in rural Surrey, was stopped in its tracks thanks to the use of 12 mm A1 non combustible Magply being chosen as the render substrate board on the contract. The property was constructed using a Structurally Insulated Panel system construction (SIP) with A1 non-combustible Magply being used on the exterior of the building as the substrate panel for the proprietary render system. Magply is a multi-use A1 non-combustible board with an impressive library of testing for fire applications, in the offsite and timber frame sector the board is designed and specified to contain fire and support the emergency service with added crucial time! The Contracts Manager for Fullers Plastering, James Corlett, commented: “The fire-resistant qualities of the Magply boards saved the day. We had utilised Magply as a render-backer on a number of projects before being awarded the contract to apply K-Rend to the half dozen homes here and have always been very pleased with the performance. It is an easy board to cut and fix, while we can now definitely confirm to clients that it fully complies with the fire requirements for domestic and commercial buildings.”

Protection_DPR.indd 1 New Marmox Fireboard offers ideal EWI and IWI substrate 28/11/2023 11:48
Marmox has introduced the highly versatile Fireboard into its range for both internal and external wall insulation (IWI/ EWI) applications. The Marmox Stone Wool based product shares the unique Marmox honeycomb surface structure with its XPS forerunner, Multiboard, to create an A1 non-combustible certified render-backer which is fully waterproof. It can further be used internally across walls or ceilings to take a plaster finish, while providing sound decoupling and acoustic absorption properties, as well as thermal insulation. The 600 x 1,200 mm Fireboards are available in thicknesses from 20 mm up to 200 mm and with the polymer modified mortar honeycomb coating on one or both faces. With a nominal density of 150 kg/m3 the boards’ core material offers a compressive strength of 90 kNm2, making it three times stronger than standard mineral wool. The Marketing Manager for Marmox, Grant Terry, commented: “The introduction of Fireboard into our range significantly enhances our offer to the construction industry, meaning we have an A1 non-combustible backer board for internal or external use, which can safely be used across masonry as well as timber or steel framing systems. The Stone Wool the boards are made of is formed of molten rock, meaning it is impossible for the fibres to absorb moisture, so they will not degrade no matter what weather they are exposed to.”
