Existing door hardware swapped out for CHL’s DORMA-Glas and Avocet products at Network Rail in Milton Keynes

One of our customers has successfully swapped out existing hardware with CHL-supplied door hardware on glass partitioning walls in the state-of-the-art Network Rail building in Milton Keynes.

CHL supplies sleek and secure door hardware

As part of our new range, the customer purchased DORMA-Glas and Avocet hardware for a superior look and finish to suit the building’s aesthetics and security requirements.


The project required 100 DORMA-Glas Rondo Lever Handle On Rose and 100 Rondo Lock with Euro Cutout. 


“With their slender shape and elegant design, STUDIO locks optimally accentuate the special character and transparency of glass doors. At the same time, they allow the user to choose between different locking variants (non-lockable, warded lock, profile cylinder).” DORMA-Glas


And that’s not all; at CHL, we also supplied Avocet Hardware, which included bespoke, high-security 3-star cylinders. We provided 100 ABS Cylinder and turn keyed alike suit plus 50 ABS Design Additional Keys. 


It's usual to have multiple keys in large buildings, but Avocet Hardware’s locks and keys allow for a set of locks that can be opened with a single key. With superior security, tags are printed with a 24/7/365 phone number on a secure database – the international security register (ISR), which assigns a code to its owner.
