the axxent door hinge
For more than 30 years the name KOMPOtherm has stood for high-quality aluminium house and apartment doors. The family enterprise from Verl, which is one of the leading producers of aluminium entrance doors, relies on quality down to the smallest detail. Elegant appearance with invisible technology plays an important part, but the company places great value on an efficient complete package, ranging from the flush aesthetics to the easy cleaning and extending to the high compression. "The axxent door hinge meets this requirement", judges KOMPOtherm Managing Director, Oliver Führer, who recognised the potential of this solution early on and supported the development of the product to readiness for series production in cooperation with the SIEGENIA GROUP.Get more news about Door Hinge Hl017,you can vist our website!
An attractive sales argument
It is the invisible hardware components in particular that make the axxent door hinge the ideal solution for high-end residential concepts – even for doors with sash-covering fillings. Technical finesse is desired at KOMPOtherm, but it should remain discreetly in the background. It is not without reason that the axxent door hinge is seen as one of the highlights of the entrance doors: "the lean, discreet appearance appeals to our customers and creates good sales opportunities", described Oliver Führer.
The axxent door hinge also shows its strengths in terms of energy efficiency. Neither the insulation chamber nor a sealing level need be interrupted due to the positioning in the inner chamber of the profiles. This makes the doors energy-efficient. Convenient cleaning opportunities and a durable, wear-resistant design, e.g. made of high-quality stainless steel precision cast components, round off the advantages from an end user standpoint.
One single hand movement
KOMPOtherm sells around 4,500 axxent door hinges a year. The solution has been tried and tested in production and in assembly: any changeover of the production process was not necessary. On-site assembly is also easy and efficient because it is constructed in two parts with a frame and a sash part, therefore the sash can be hinged and unhinged with one simple hand movement by one person. The convenient 3D adjustment and large adjustment ranges for lateral, height and compression adjustment further simplify the installation process.
The axxent door hinge is frequently used in high-end residential projects and apartment buildings. Property owners in the latter group place value on comfort. "The living space begins right from the back of the entrance door, which makes design and appearance essential", according to Oliver Führer. The axxent door hinge is even used as standard at KOMPOtherm for modernisation projects – and for good reason: the dirt-free installation is a convincing argument for home owners as maintaining a clear passageway. This is enabled by the skilfully positioned pivot of the door hinge, which ensures that the door leaf pivots away almost completely while opening, meaning that no valuable space is forfeited.
