HARDWARE SELECTION

  • Selecting the correct hardware for application is determined by many factors that change on a project by project basis. Careful consideration needs to be given to opening type, size and weight, wind loads, location within the building, security, ease of operation, budget, serviceability, and aesthetic requirements.
  • Typical hardware is shown throughout our catalogues to depict opening types and function. There are a range of sash types available to cover a variety of applications. Once the opening type has been selected, it is the responsibility of the fabricator to determine hardware suitability with the hardware manufacturer, ensuring their selection meets project requirements.
