ATB Secure will launch two new Taurus Max Healthcare Windows – a Horizontal Slider and an Automated Opening Window – designed specifically to meet the needs of mental health sector specifiers.
The Taurus Max Automated Opening Window is said to be ‘unique’; ATB Secure says ‘no other window product features such high security features while allowing for premium air flow and light transmission, and retaining performance and non-oppressive good looks’. Both aluminium windows comply with BSEN 12020-2-2001, and have the option of double glazed units, or triple glazed in the case of the Automated Opener, or Hammerglass – ‘the virtually unbreakable’ polycarbonate sheet. Also fixed into both windows as part of the standard mental health specification is a security mesh available in two light transmittance options. Fixing the security options into the window extrusion during production reportedly ‘makes for a robust window that can withstand even the harshest of treatment’. The Sliding Window has an anti-ligature pull handle and offers several locking options. The opening pane has a lock-off facility which can be designated at three different positions, and a full lock facility with keyed alike euro profile cylinder.
