			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Turning heads with the ECturn</p>
<p> KCC ARCHITECTURAL is bringing to the market a highly versatile, electromechanical swing door drive for internal doors, enabling barrier-free access for all. </p>
<p>Ideal for sheltered housing, hospitals, schools, residential and care homes, hotel rooms, restaurants and even leisure facilities, the flexible GEZE ECturn has been developed to provide a quiet, simple accessibility solution. </p>
<p>With a modular structure, the ECturn can be used with a wide variety of control options and in combination with access control and building management systems. Additional safety sensors can be connected simply and quickly, so it can be tailored to meet the needs of a wide variety of users, from disabled people to small children. </p>
<p>Easy, simple and convenient for the user, the drive can be used for automatic and manual opening in addition to automatic closing in accordance with DIN 18650. To save energy, the ECturn offers a low energy setting as well as automatic and to make it even easier for users, it has three operating modes; automatic, permanently open and night. </p>
<p>Suitable for all types of mounting, it can be easily retrofitted into existing buildings and is the perfect choice for new builds where adaptability is important. Built to the highest quality standards and meeting stringent safety requirements, the versatile door drive is suitable for internal doors with leaf widths up to 1100mm and up to 125kg. At just 60mm high and deep, and 580mm wide, the drive is discreet and stylish, complementing its surroundings.</p>
<p> KCC sales manager, Kevin Clancy said: “For contractors looking for an adaptable option that is safe, consistent and durable, the modular ECturn is a real winner. Combining functionality, reliability and cost-effectiveness, it’s ideal for public buildings that have a lot of internal doors. In fact, the ECturn meets all the requirements made of barrier-free construction and living.” <strong></strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Health and safety requirements are a huge issue for facilities managers of small, medium and large buildings and campuses. </p>
<p>Many companies can supply and install the full range of access control systems and corresponding automatic doors. Whether the whether the doors are; sliding, folding, swinging for access to an office building or even a roller shutter door in a warehouse or garage, all  doors are naturally enough subject to wear and tear, nothing lasts forever after all.  </p>
<p>When these doors and windows start to wear they pose a risk with regards to the health and safety standards which facility owners have a responsibility to maintain.</p>
<p> All too often this means a partial or total replacement of a worn out piece of equipment at a potential cost of thousands if not more. More importantly often one of these doors can fall below safety standards. And it should be remembered that sectional fire doors, fire curtains,fire shutters and smoke curtains are also considered fire equipment therefore have even greater importance from a health and safety perspective. </p>
<p>In the same way that neglecting car maintenance can lead to full engine replacement, neglecting faulty entry equipment can lead to full door replacement. However the cost of faulty fire entry equipment can also include loss of life.</p>
<p>Timely service, repair and preventative maintenance can make a capital investment potentially last years longer and create a huge effective cost reduction. A planned maintenance program will also ensure that facilities owners avoid the risk of liability from contravening health and safety standards not to mention fire safety standards. </p>
<p>KCC Architectural supply, <span style="text-decoration: line-through;">I</span>nstall and maintain a wide range of Access Control Systems, Automatic Doors and many more items. Please view our web site for further information.</p>

<p><span style="color: #000000;">Founded in 1998 after the successful management buyout of NT Laidlaw, KCC Architectural’s journey to success continued with the integrating of three high profile companies over the past six years namely, KCC Door Hardware &amp; Security Solutio</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">ns, Skelly Opening Solutions and MMF Architectural. The amalgamation of these three companies, combining specialist skills and expertise, has enabled KCC Architectural to provide the market with a truly integrated and unique service. </span></p>
<p>In 2005, KCC acquired Skelly Doors, changing the name to Skelly Opening Solutions in 2007. With over 35 years in the Irish door market, Skelly Opening Solutions is a forerunner in the supply of opening solutions for fire, <a title="Security Access" href="http://www.kccarchitectural.com/index.php?contentid=Access-Control&amp;divisionid=hardware-access-control" target="_blank">security access</a> and environmental requirements.</p>
<p>In 2008, KCC expanded further with the takeover of MMF Architectural in Mullingar. Whilst widely acknowledged as specialists in stainless steel fabrication, MMF have extensive knowledge in designing and fabricating in aluminium, mild steel and brass. In addition to working with a range of complementary materials such as wood, stone, marble and glass.</p>
<p>In 2009, KCC Door Hardware &amp; Security Solutions, Skelly Opening Solutions, and MMF Architectural merged together to form one company offering the total solutions package. Now known as KCC Architectural, we are proud to offer a total service for the supply, installation and maintenance of inter-related products that satisfy the particular requirements for industry, commercial, educational, pharmaceutical, health and housing sectors of the construction industry. KCC Architectural continuously works with its manufacturing partners to ensure that consistent quality and performance is achieved on their products where specified and supplied, and that these products are in full compliance with all current relevant standards including CE marking.</p>
