From hinge sides to balcony door bullet catches. The hardware specialist will go into these general advantages in specific detail using the new assemblies as an example. The short profiles at a glance.
Hinge side P for PVC windows
The standardised drilling and screwing pattern in the standard version makes an additional screw fixing unnecessary up to a sash weight of 130 kg and therefore reduces the installation effort. The standard hinge side (stay bearing and pivot rest) for a sash weight of 130 kg ensures that a reduced number of items are required. The sash stay, consisting of stay arm and stay guide, features integrated night ventilation, which makes an additional frame component unnecessary.
The stay guide, which can be used on the right-hand and left-hand side, and two stay bearings and pivot rests, instead of the previous four, also resulted in a reduction in the number of items used. The hinge side for a sash weight of 130 kg and 150 kg is suitable for larger, modern windows with heavy glass elements.
The stay guide with integrated night ventilation further improves living comfort, while the sash which runs through the night ventilation function automatically at a handle position of 135° can be operated intuitively. A harmonised overall appearance is the result of the stay hinge covering all screws on the 130 kg hingeside.
In the equivalent component for a sash weight of up to 150 kg, the optimised screw position is also a technical benefit for the two visible additional screws. The large colour selection for cover caps and the addition of the new “Titanium” surface to the range of powdercoated surfaces create scope for custom designs.
Hinge side T for timber windows up to a sash weight of 150 kg
The component, which will be available in the second half of 2018, impresses in principle with the same strengths as the version for PVC windows. These include a standardised drilling and screwing pattern up to 150 kg, night ventilation integrated into the sash stay and concealed screws.
“TiltSafe”
according to the information provided, each of the three identical security tilt ventilation components made of steel for installation on the right-hand or left-hand side are suitable for achieving burglary inhibition in accordance with RC 2 with the windows in the tilt position, when used in conjunction with other elements such as security locking cams and a lockable handle. When optionally combined with the “Roto E-Tec Drive” concealed tilt opening and locking drive (RC 2 certification in the pipeline), convenient incorporation into the home automation system is possible. The tiltdepth of up to 65 mm, which is possible in the mechanical and electrical version, is reflected in a better room climate, which is also the result of the high air exchange rate.
High backset espagnolette
Because the faceplate and gearbox /lock casing are disconnected from a backset of 25 mm and above, the number of items and therefore the storage space required are reduced, while the components can be individually configured at the same time.
The “EasyMix system” enables installation to be performed without screws, since the faceplate and gearbox / lock casing can be connected both securely and easily by clipping them in.
“Plus” lever-operated espagnolette
The one-part connecting rod ensures a connecting-rod movement that is synchronous with the lever. This results in a uniform position of the strikers on the active and passive sash, which therefore requires just one jig.
The fact that the lever-operated espagnolette is supplied in the turn position, and therefore in the virtually open 180° position, noticeably speeds up cropping and installation in the sash. Since the handle is placed in the opening position at almost 180°, the risk of injury decreases as the operating convenience increases.
Lifting mishandling device
The option of switching between right and left allows accidental incorrect release to be corrected quickly. A slot in the arm of the sash component provides access to the spring.
Mechanical balcony door bullet catch
Height compensation of up to 7 mm on the sash component makes it possible to position the frame component and sash component so that they are literally a perfect fit. A stable structure with two internal, rigid spiral springs increases functional safety in the long term and therefore reduces the volume of complaints.
This module also provides specific benefits in terms of comfort thanks to improved run-in characteristics and the low level offorce required to tilt the sash.
Assistance with making the change
With the world premiere of “Roto NX”, the hardware specialist is writing a new chapter of progress in the Tilt&Turn story “considerably shaped” by the company. The innovative range offers the intelligent solutions required for the window topics of the future, originates from a reliable, stable partner, ensures durability and high quality and, not least, stands for German engineering skill.
