RotoFasco Secura 9600
Roto North America recently introduced its new RotoFasco Secura 9600 handle for sliding patio doors.
The 9600 handle provides a similar appearance to the current RotoFasco Secura 9900 handle, for a better/best segmentation. It’s an entry-level handle that features a contemporary look with a matching exterior design, with or without a keyed option. It is a one-piece design that allows for ease of installation and is available in a variety of powder coat finishes.
Assa Abloy McKinney Concealed Hinges
Assa Abloy introduced new MK40A, MK80/MK80A, and MK100 Series McKinney concealed hinges to further complement its range of architectural door accessories.
The products feature three-dimension adjustability for easy installation and door alteration. Available to support doors of various sizes and weights and offered on wood and metal doors and frames, the concealed hinges provide all the benefits of a traditional door hinge while remaining nearly absent from view. The new concealed hinges are available in satin chrome and matte black, as well as additional finishes, available upon request.
Glass
Vitro Acuity
Vitro Architectural Glass (formerly PPG Glass) introduced its Acuity low-iron glass in September.
Formulated for use with the full range of Solarban high-performing low-E glass coatings, Acuity glass is engineered to be an affordable complement to Starphire Ultra-Clear glass in the Vitro Glass family of low-iron glasses. By eliminating the green cast inherent to conventional clear glass, the company says Acuity provides exceptionally transparent outdoor views and renders color from spandrel units with greater fidelity than regular clear glass can.
Equipment
Piab Vaculex Lifters
Piab’s ergonomic lifters, Vaculex, handle glass products and components safely while providing ergonomic working environments for employees. The flexible vacuum lifters can be adapted to fit a wide range of different window designs and manufacturing processes. The Vaculex range of standard components can be used to create solutions for safely lifting, tilting and turning sheets of glass or entire windows, and for positioning windows during assembly.
Blinds
Differentiate with BBG
Blinds between the glass provider TEDnovo Building Products offers door and window makers worldwide the opportunity for expanding their product line-ups—and margins—through new options for safe, dust-free and mold-free blinds. Company officials say they’ve shipped “millions of units over the past 12 years,” which are not only child and pet safe, but also noted for their quality, as well as smooth and quiet operation.
Products are designed to be easily integrated into current production methods, offering small to mid-sized and regional door and window makers the ability to compete with big box stores and national brands.
All products are backed by a 10-year warranty and are fully certified by the National Accreditation and Management Institute (NAMI).
