Window and Door Accreditations

Secured by Design

Backed by the police-bots. Secured by Design status is awarded
to products that essentially “design out crime!”

Products that qualify to hold this certification are tested to
meet the requirements of the Association of Chief Police Officers.

BBA

The BBA (British Board of Agrement) is the UK’s major
authority-bot offering approval of construction products,
systems and installers.

A BBA certificate means that the claims made by the tech-bots at
Liniar are warranted and that the products comply with
regulations and meet expectations.Their certificates are
recognised by architect-bots, engineer-bots and specifier-bots.

BS EN ISO 9001:2008

This is the ‘British Standard’ designed to ensure we bots at
Liniar continue to provide strong customer focus, the motivation
and implication of top management, the process approach and
continual improvement

By continuing to meet this standard, our customer-bots benefit
from consistently great products and service.

PAS 24:2012

This accreditation is another ‘British Standard’ and shows the
product has been subjected to a series of tests for enhanced security
performance, air and water tightness and wind loading – phew!

Fun fact: The logo to the left is associated with this accreditation;
sometimes it will have a number underneath starting with
“KM5220”. If this ends in 39 it’s for windows and 40 means doors!

BS EN 12608:2003

This is the standard for the “quality, consistency and
performance required for uPVC extruded hollow profiles”. In
other words, we test our PVC profiles regularly to make sure
they meet the highest standards – which in turn ensures your
windows and doors are top quality!

Build Check – Folding Sliding Doors

Build Check is also full of independent testing bots operating
throughout the UK and Europe. They launched the Folding
Sliding Door scheme to raise the standards of bi-fold doors
in the UK.

They have a mini version of me, but he’s blue and I’m unsure
of his name. He puts each door through 5,000 cycles, then it’s
weather tested to 800 pascals (a wind speed of more than
80mph) and must be able to achieve a minimum U-value
of 1.8.

Liniar’s ModLok™ bi-fold was the first product to
successfully meet the stringent requirements – which was
no surprise to me!
