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
Bie ń kowski, 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
44
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.
