JELD-WEN launches new smart room entrance doorsets

Door manufacturer JELD-WEN has enhanced its product range with the launch of a new smart room entrance doorset.

In addition to high-quality hardware, including hinges, a door viewer and concealed drop down seal, each doorset in the room entrance range is tested, compatible, and machined to be installed with cloud-based smart access control from NSP Security, an intelligent door security specialist.

A choice of three locksets, each compatible with JELD-WEN’s existing laminate, moulded and premium paint-grade 44mm door designs, offers a solution for a range of applications, including student accommodation, hotels, commercial buildings and residential projects.

The ‘SMF 614’ lockset is ideal for retrofit schemes, replacing mechanical key systems and outdated access control systems, while the ‘SMF 814’ design can utilise both ANSI and EURO mortise locksets with a range of faceplates and strike plates, meaning it is well suited to both retrofit and new build installations.

Meanwhile, ‘SMF DUO’ is a fully encrypted lockset that is compatible with the NSP’s Smartphone Entry App, utilising Bluetooth Low Energy for ease of use. All locksets are battery-powered, eliminating the need for hard wiring, and are available in a range of finishes to achieve a cohesive look throughout the interior scheme.

Doorsets are delivered to the site fully finished and ready to install, ensuring hardware compatibility whilst minimising time, resource and error during installation.

With third-party accreditation for 30-minute fire and smoke protection, as listed under the FD30 Certifire scheme, customers can also have assurance that the doors will perform to industry standards.

Russell Birchley, Product Manager at JELD-WEN, said: “High quality craftsmanship and exceptional design is delivered as standard with every JELD-WEN doorset. This latest innovation has been expertly designed to meet the unique requirements of multi-occupancy properties, providing architects and designers with the desired level of security, reliability, quality and style.

“By ensuring the latest cloud-based technologies are compatible with our existing doorset range, we can now offer a smart solution for a range of accommodation types, provide complete assurance throughout the product lifecycle, and give confidence to landlords, building managers and residents that the room entrance product is fit for purpose, compliant and will protect as intended.”

As well as a market-leading product range, customers can benefit from JELD-WEN’s industry knowledge and technical expertise, as well as dedicated, UK-based sales and customer service teams to provide support and solutions at every stage of a project.
