Hinges
They make the difference
What you need to know about hinges
Hinges have developed into powerful High-Tech products. The permanent stress to which they are subjected means that it's a matter of sophisticated technology and clever functionality.
We offer hinges for all types of applications. They are distinguished by long life (durability), high load capacity and a multitude of safety functions. So designed and fitted, hinges can be quickly mounted and dismounted, adjusted without problem, have different opening variants and angles and, when necessary, a spring force adjustment for different door widths.
We produce our hinges in indestructable steel. Butt and finial butt hinges are produced in solid brass.
Flap hinges are in hard-wearing plastic or zinc diecast.
