Simonswerk, a manufacturer of fittings for doors and fastening systems in partition structures, has introduced the new KEEP CLOSED magnetic locking system, according to a press release from Simonswerk.
KEEP CLOSED operates without electricity and ensures quiet, convenient opening and closing of wooden and glass doors. The system consists of a magnet, magnetic plate, and handle — all coordinated in terms of design and functionality.
For glass doors, the system offers smooth motion and discreet integration of handles into the door leaf, especially when combined with concealed TECTUS Glas hinges. This supports the minimalist appearance of the door.
The KCH 1700 handle is suitable for flush glass doors and is available in several finishes. Installation is done without drilling or additional glass processing.
For wooden interior doors, the KEEP CLOSED system eliminates the usual push–pull movement — the doors are held in place thanks to a patented magnet. The user can adjust the holding force, and the mechanism requires no maintenance and is wear-free.
OKNA.ua previously reported on another innovation for interior doors — a concealed handle from AGB, also aimed at improving the functionality and aesthetics of door systems.
