HARDWARE
In the spirit of no-nonsense approach to functional design we have done away with all the unnecessary elements and developed a hidden mechanism that leaves only the handle visible. This innovation introduces a novel positioning and retaining mechanism which allows it to be installed directly onto the sash with a simple snap.
Our Minimalist Line of door handles offers a clean aesthetic in a contemporary form factor, thanks to the fully concealed mechanism and ultra-durable construction. Its streamlined simplicity allows for quick and easy installation.
Full range of RAL finishes available.
