It is easily accessible from the motorway and conveniently positioned for both northern and southern routes, as well as offering free on-site parking and EV charging. Staff Cooke, Technical Director at ASSA ABLOY, comments: “We’re thrilled to be opening our expanded Test Centre, now with UKAS accreditation to give our customers absolute assurance that our testing meets strict, nationally recognised standards. Just as importantly, tests are carried out by specialists who understand the products inside out— because we test windows and doors every day.”

“What the ASSA ABLOY Test Centre really offers is this: an independent, first-class testing facility that combines accredited processes with real product know-how. Unlike generalist centres that may switch from one type of test to the next, our team understands what matters when setting up and assessing windows and doors—right down to the details that can affect performance. This gives UK manufacturers everything they need to innovate and produce the best compliant security and safety products they can.” The expanded ASSA ABLOY Test Centre is one of the first ASSA ABLOY sites to fully reflect ASSA ABLOY’s new 2026 identity, featuring a clean, modern aesthetic and enhanced customer-journeys designed around clarity, innovation, and trust.
