CES supplies door lock cylinders to Dubai hotel
HOPPE (UK)’s German door lock cylinder partner CES has secured a contract to supply cylinders for what will be the world’s tallest building.
Currently under construction in Dubai and expected to open in September 2009, Burj Dubai will offer hotel, retail and office accommodation as well as high-end residential apartments. The building’s projected height is being kept a closely guarded secret but it will be over 700m high, making it three times taller than London’s Canary Wharf tower.
The contract involves the supply of 1600 CES cylinders for the tower’s residential and office areas within one master key suite. The keyways are protected by patent and exclusively designed for the gulf region. Additional demands for security can be easily realised with these cylinders.
Eckhart Leptien, Managing Director at CES says, “We are extremely pleased to be awarded this contract and to be part of the world’s most prestigious building. Burj Dubai’s architects have set demanding performance and aesthetic requirements for all products used in its construction and we have clearly demonstrated why CES cylinders offer the best long term solution for internal doors throughout the building.”
CES cylinders and mortice lock cases are available in the UK and Ireland through HOPPE (UK). The product range includes 5 pin standard differ cylinders, 5 pin master keyed cylinders and 6 pin Softline cylinders.
With its specialist pinning centre, HOPPE (UK) uses CES cylinders to provide customers with solutions for numerous applications including central locking systems for apartments, master keyed systems for offices and public buildings
Michelle Wilkinson, National Account Manager for HOPPE (UK)’s Architectural & Retail Division says, “In line with our market-leading HOPPE and ARRONE brands, we are committed to supplying complementary products of the highest quality. By winning this contract to supply Burj Dubai, the quality of CES cylinders has been affirmed and we are delighted that we can offer these products to our UK customers.”
