Always committed to staying ahead of the crowd , Zoo Hardware takes inspiration from contemporary trends with a focus towards minimalism and simplicity , this led to the company identifying a gap in the market . Zoo Hardware recognised the need for a new range of high-performance , design-led furniture , with hard-wearing decorative finishes ; powder coated matt black , PVD satin brass and PVD satin bronze , to stand up to today ’ s requirements for hardware . With this in mind , the Rosso Tecnica range was created and delivers high-quality door furniture with a stunning aesthetic appeal to suit any modern interior .

Rosso Tecnica has been designed and produced using a combination of both solid cast components and tubular components , where quality is the main consideration with an efficiency of material use to maintain cost effectiveness . This gives the range affordability while maintaining an exceptional , quality look and feel , and if your specification requires consideration around The Equality Act , the Maggiore Lever is a 19mm diameter , return to door lever that meets the dimensional requirements of BS8300 and Approved Document M of the building regulations .
The introduction of a newly engineered ‘ Squircle ’ rose , a rounded square known in mathematical terms as a ‘ superellipse ’, allows the complete customisation of both the levers and accessories to have a completely different look and feel from the standard round rose option . As well as being aesthetically pleasing , the Squircle rose has been designed for easy installation on the existing sub-rose , making it a simple and cost-effective solution for creating a modern and fashionable environment .
The product is supplied with both wood screw and bolt through fixings , and a far more user friendly allen key for installation of the grub screws that are situated on the underside of the lever for improved aesthetics . All levers are supplied on a sprung rose configuration for improved operation and longevity .
