Metal Technology takes on Heavy Duty Hinge

One of the leading architectural aluminium systems companies had added Cotswold's 'one type fits all' Heavy-Duty hinges to its range. Metal Technology in Antrim, Northern Ireland, specialises in the design of architectural glazing solutions for window, door and curtain walling construction and has supplied high performance systems for many prestigious commercial projects in the UK and Ireland.

Cotswold's Heavy Duty collection offers a friction stay for large top-hung or side-hung windows up to 2.0m high and 120kg in weight. Its design means reduced stockholding for fabricators and distributors as all hinges have an adjustable friction mechanism for optimum flexibility. The HD22-R, for example, opens to 20, 45 or 90 degrees, so a wide range of window styles, sizes and ventilation options can be with just one hinge type.

Fabricators in Metal Technology's network can choose from Cotswold's complete range of HD friction stays, including the HD-R, available in sizes of 10, 16 and 22 inches and the larger HD28 and HD26-180 self-balancing stays, which eliminate the need for supporting arms and have a fixed opening angle of 15 and 20 degrees respectively.

The HD range offered by Cotswold also includes the HD102 Friction Arm, which is totally concealed on side-hung windows when the vent is closed and offers no internal obstruction when opened. It can also be fitted below the existing friction stay on large top-hung windows to provide extra support by limiting the opening and adding greater stability to the window.
