HARDWARE
Titon’s Hardware Exported to
Prestigious Refurbishment in Poland
Over 300 sets of Titon window hardware have been fitted as part of the
ongoing refurbishment of the Rother’s Mills buildings on Mill Island, located in the
historic old town of Bydgoszcz, Poland. The products installed include Overture
E handles, Kenrick Standard Espags, top hung Venture hinges and Capture safety
restrictors, which were all supplied onsite by Titon’s Polish distributor, AGAS.
» MILL ISLAND HAS BEEN A POPULAR
tourist destination since 2006, with the
Rother’s Mills buildings being one of the
central attractions. Following significant
investment in a number of nearby museums,
the decision was then taken to refurbish
Rother’s Mills with brand new windows, while
allowing the buildings to retain their original
characteristics.
Commenting on the project, Remigiusz
Bieńkowski, Technical Sales Advisor at AGAS,
said: “The historic riverside buildings have
hundreds of timber windows, so required
high quality hardware to ensure robustness
and durability. Following extensive research,
it was clear Titon offered the most suitable
range of products, complying with the
project’s specification, as well as the relevant
building regulations. We have worked with
Titon for over two and a half years, and have
always been extremely impressed with the
quality of their hardware and exceptional
customer service. These sentiments were
shared by our client Zakład Stolarski Marek
Kapeja, who worked on the Rother’s Mills
refurbishment.”
Daniel Obara, Export Manager at Titon,
added: “We are proud to have been involved
in such a prestigious project in Poland.
Our hardware has certainly impressed, as
another 500 windows fitted with the same
Titon products are set to be installed from
now into the new year. This is testament to
the versatility and quality of our hardware
portfolio, as we offer a wealth of handles,
espagnolettes and hinges suitable for a wide
range of applications.”
Overture espagnolette handles are part of
Titon’s Overture suite of window and door
hardware. This stylish handle is ergonomically
designed to include a solid and sculptured
grip, and is available in straight or handed
versions, in a variety of finishes.

The Venture friction hinge range is suitable
for domestic applications on side or top hung
windows. It has been developed by Titon’s
experienced window fittings team and is tested
to the latest standards. All hinge dimensions
and opening geometries have been designed to
fit most window profiles. There are a number
of versions in the range, including top hung,
side hung and Egress Easy-Clean, available
in standard or Hi Stack configurations. The
addition of the Tenure Hinge Security Guard
also allows the Venture hinge to meet the
requirements of PAS 24 as part of a compliant
window system.
The Kenrick Standard Espagnolette
locking mechanism is designed to meet the
requirements of the UK market – where
peace of mind, performance, longevity and
basic security are vital. It is suitable for use on
PVCU, timber or aluminium windows.
Finally, Capture is an automatically
engaging spring-loaded window safety
restrictor for use on side and top hung
windows to limit opening and can be
retrofitted. Capture is supplied in austenitic
steel and in a choice of three different lengths
for use on deep sections. Various pin heights
are also available to suit all cavity sizes.
