» CARL F GROUPCO , THE major stockist of Roto hardware , reports increasing demand from fabricators for the innovative Patio Inowa sliding door hardware system . Launched in the hardware distributors range in 2020 , the sliding door system has gathered momentum thanks to its enhanced functionality and security options .
Commenting on the increase in demand Julie Warner , Carl F Groupco ’ s Roto Product Manager said :
“ There has been a significant increase in interest from fabricators for the Roto Patio Inowa range in the last six months partly due to Aluplast launching their Smart-Slide door which features the hardware . Inowa is particularly popular for new build
|
installations as the system meets many stringent regulations , namely the rain and air impermeability test to BS EN 13126-17 and the ability to achieve PAS 24 security .
“ As with all Roto hardware , the Inowa is also supplied with Grade 5 corrosion resistance as standard which assists with
|
its suitability for coastal and high-rise installations .”
Innovating sliding door hardware with the Patio Inowa system , Roto ensured users could comfortably slide sash weights up to 250kg for timber , PVCu and aluminium profiles . Minimum effort is required to move sashes as the closing
|
movement is perpendicular to the frame profile and roller bearings mean that it is not necessary to lift the sash . Soft functionality also gently brakes the sash when coming to a stop in the open or closed position , ensuring safe opening , every time .
Equally suited for low- and high-rise applications , including coastal or penthouse living , Patio Inowa hardware keeps the sash tightly sealed in bad weather conditions thanks to the circumferential gasket and active control of locking points . The system is also capable of achieving PAS 24 compliance be securing locking points in the mullion and V locking cams . The handle is also lockable with drilling protection .
