SIMONSWERK Set To Make FIT Show Debut Appearance This Year

Leading hinge system manufacturer SIMONSWERK is set to make its debut appearance at the FIT Show, bringing its premium hinge systems to the UK's largest gathering of window, door, and glazing professionals. The show, which runs from April 29th to May 1st at Birmingham's NEC, will see SIMONSWERK showcase its innovative product range at Stand Q61, including the acclaimed TECTUS concealed hinge system.

With a heritage spanning more than 135 years in European manufacturing excellence, SIMONSWERK has established itself as a global leader in high-end hinge systems. The company's UK operation, based in Tipton, has been manufacturing premium solid brass hinges since 1977, serving diverse applications across timber, glass, PVCu, and aluminium door systems.

Robin Guy, Managing Director here at SIMONSWERK UK, says: "The FIT Show represents the perfect platform for us to demonstrate our commitment to the UK market and showcase our premium solutions to the industry. As first-time exhibitors, we're particularly excited to present our TECTUS concealed hinge system, which exemplifies our dedication to combining innovative technology with architectural elegance. The show's reputation as the cornerstone of the UK fenestration industry makes it an ideal venue for connecting with professionals who share our passion for quality and design excellence."

Visitors to Stand Q61 will have the opportunity to experience SIMONSWERK's comprehensive range of premium hinge systems, with special focus on solutions for heavy-duty, residential, and entrance doors. The showcase will highlight the TECTUS concealed hinge system, which represents the pinnacle of minimalist design principles in architectural hardware. The system's flush and linear design allows for seamless integration with various door materials, creating a uniform appearance that appeals to architects and designers seeking clean, contemporary aesthetics.

The TECTUS range offers different load capacities and sizes, making it suitable for diverse applications from residential doors to heavy-duty commercial installations. The system can be specified with intumescent kits and integrated energy transfer capabilities, while maintaining a consistent appearance with its closed hinge body design.

Visitors can also explore SIMONSWERK's innovative glass door solutions, including the EVO self closing hinge which is suitable for glass doors for all door opening angles up to 180° and is also available as a version with automatic closing from 160° to 0° – ideal for separating specific areas in high-value residential buildings, such as large apartments with a lot of square footage. Also on show is BILOBA, the self-closing screw-on hinge for glass double-action and single-action doors in upmarket residential buildings, which ensures doors can be opened manually with little effort and then close automatically with a set speed.
