Robert Mottram has recently joined the ARRONE team as a technical manager.
Rob has more than 9 years of experience working within the door industry. He joins HOPPE from steel door manufacturer Robust UK where he was a research and development manager.
“My new role is focused on product performance and ensuring all fire-rated ARRONE products have up to date fire test evidence to support certificates,” explains Rob.
“I have a lot of experience with fire doors and the associated hardware. In my previous role, I was involved in the preparation for the regulations that came into force in November 2019 regarding the CE marking of fire rated external doorsets.
I’ll be working closely with test labs and independent third-party certification schemes, such as Certifire, as well as with door manufacturers to ensure we have the right hardware and test evidence for use with their products.
I’m incredibly passionate about training and development so it’s great to be part of an organisation and team that is equally committed. I am part of the Guild of Architectural Ironmongers’ (GAI) education committee and I’m currently doing the GAI Diploma in door systems having completed my Certificate in Architectural Hardware in 2020.”
Based in Wolverhampton, HOPPE (UK) Ltd is a market leader in door and window hardware. As a member of HOPPE Group, HOPPE (UK) provides architectural hardware products that have been tested to meet the most stringent European and British standards.
