Athena Upgrade for
Lytham Windows
» » TOTAL HARDWARE CUSTOMER
Lytham Windows is the latest customer
to make the move from flag hinges to the
new Trojan Athena sightline hinge. Due to
their coastal location in Blackpool, Lytham
Windows were finding that a lot of call outs
were due to pitting flag hinges. The Athena,
unlike a flag hinge, has a slim, unobtrusive
design leaving very little exposed to the
elements and has therefore reduced call
outs.
Lytham Windows have 35 years experience
with windows, doors and conservatories
and they pride themselves on their strict
standards. All of Lytham’s products are
Kitemarked to British standards and all their
window and door locking mechanisms either
comply with or are approved by; The Official
Police Security Initiative, Glass and Glazing
Federation, BFRC, or the British Board of
Agrément. These high standards mean that
Lytham Windows can offer a comprehensive
15-year guarantee on manufacturing and
installations, as well as a 10-year insurance
guarantee. Total Hardware has supported
Lytham’s strict standards with a range of
high quality, high security hardware, and the
Athena is no different.
The Athena hinge is PAS 24 compatible,
corrosion tested to BS EN 1670 Grade 5
and has been designed to aid fabricators and
installers. The hinge is packaged pre-assembled
and ready to fit which dramatically speeds up
the fitting process. It has also been designed
so that the height and lateral adjustments are
achievable with the door closed, for visual
alignment.
Trojan has also launched a heavy-duty
Athena hinge for composite doors. The double
knuckle design gives increased load bearing;
therefore 3 hinges can carry up to 100Kg,
making it ideal for large or triple glazed
composite doors. As well as this Trojan are
planning to launch a stainless-steel version
of the Athena, ideal for companies such as
Lytham.
Total Hardware is committed to supplying
its customers with the latest innovations
in hardware, and the Athena hinge is the
latest addition to their product portfolio.
The feedback from their customers has been
extremely positive, with many stating that
consumers preferred the slim design to the flag
hinge.
