Ironmongery We are partnered with ironmongery manufacturer HOPPE in the UK and this enables us to offer a full ironmongery service to accompany our doorset offer. Whatever your requirement from basic lock and latch installation leaving you to source the other hardware, through to a full architectural Ironmongery schedule, specification and supply, we can help you with this. In addition to AI specification to your requirements as discussed above, we have developed with HOPPE two standard ranges of ironmongery that complement our doorsets offer, ensure compliance with performance requirements and can either take all the work out of specifying ironmongery for you, or be used to give you a starting point to specify your own variations on the theme!13 www.ambicdoorsets.co.uk

Our Ambic-Pro and Ambic-Design ranges should between them cover most needs and they come with a basic choiceof handles but will also be compatible with many other handles if your requirement is for something very specific. Ifyou have a design in mind we can usually fit these in to our offer. All the products are European made and have beenchosen for their quality, performance compatibility and aesthetic. Because of our direct relationship with HOPPE wecan also usually be price competitive at the same time.One key issue in ensuring doorset assembly fire performance on site is the co-ordination between doorset evidenceand ironmongery evidence. Beware, not all ironmongery evidence is useable in conjunction with all doorset evidence,and if you separately source your doorsets and ironmongery the responsibility for compliance between the two fallsto you. Coming to Ambic for your doorsets and ironmongery means we can ensure that the ironmongery that goesonto your doorset assembly is both fit for purpose and fully compliant with (not contradictory to) both door andironmongery evidence.
