Halspan is one of the leading suppliers of quality door components in the world. Its universally respected doorsets are made under licence by customers on all five continents.

A pioneer in its field, Halspan has been at the forefront of its industry in one way or another for the last 20 years.

First, in the early 1990s, Halspan developed an entirely new way of constructing doors, using pre-tested fire door blanks made from 3-layer particle board. It took the industry by storm and hasn’t been bettered since.
