ASSA ABLOY helps Zhengzhou Airport expansion plan take off

When Henan Airport Group needed to extend Zhenzhou Xinzheng International International Airport, they turned to ASSA ABLOY China for a complete security solution.

Customer

Zhengzhou Xinzheng International Airport, owned by the Henan Airport Group, will become China’s second-largest integrated transport hub and will serve Zhengzhou, the capital of Henan province.

Challenge

The goal was to devise a comprehensive door-opening solution for a project that includes the construction of two more terminals and two more runways by 2020. The passenger flow is expected to rise to 29 million travelers per year, 0.2 million passenger aircraft and half a million cargo jets will travel to the airport annually.

Solution

ASSA ABLOY China’s complete, optimized, flexible, cost-efficient security solution impressed the customers and the architects (China Northeast Architectural Design and Research Institute) – particularly given the current economic situation in China and the durability requirements. We offered a mix of ANSI (US) and EN (European) standard products. The customer was equally satisfied with our team’s responsive communication efforts.

Some 2,000 fire and steel doors and 4,000 sets of hardware secure the terminals, with 49 2.8m-high super-size ASSA ABLOY branded fire doors for the huge entranceways. Products include Yale ANSI standard locksets, door closers and exit devices, and Doormax EN standard floor springs and door accessories. The project will promote the use of our high-end brands for other significant commercial projects.
