A Strong Partner for the Door Industry

Three years ago, Roto Frank Window & Door Technology (FTT) established the Door Innovation  expert team to bring experienced design engineers, product managers, and sales specialists together to provide greater support to swing door manufacturers. By adding new products to the range and offering tailored services, Roto has achieved a high level of customer satisfaction and gained many new manufacturers, reports Tom Vermeulen, Head of Door Sales and Innovation.  

The Roto Solid B hinge range includes two- and three-part butt hinges for vinyl, wood, and aluminum doors and are available in both, rebate and overlap versions. The highlight of this hinge range: the adjustment mechanisms are integrated into the hinge roller, therefore preventing gaps and axis offsets regardless of the hinge setting.  

Many renowned manufacturers of aluminum swing doors use the Roto Solid C concealed hinge. They particularly appreciate the ability to rapidly adjust the height via a single adjustment point. The latest version of the height adjustment module impresses with further improved visual integration, as well as simplified processing and installation. 

In 2023 Roto introduced the Roto Safe A | Tandeo mechanical-automatic multi-point lock that features three automatic extending security locking points. The Roto Safe H | H650 mechanical multi-point lock for lever-operated swing doors has evolved into a system of superior quality which is robust enough to cope with any weather conditions. Its maximum lever handle force has been increased to 44 lbs. (20 kg), making the value of this system unparalleled in the current market. 

“Product developments like these are proof of the huge success of the Door Innovation initiative, launched in 2021,” underlines Tom Vermeulen. Roto embodies comprehensive expertise in the swing door market segment. As a full-range supplier, the company regularly reworks and improves existing systems and ensures that all swing door hardware components are optimally coordinated. This makes it easier for manufacturers to economically produce high-quality doors with minimal errors.  

Going forward, Roto will continue developing the product range and services to meet the evolving needs of swing door manufacturers. At Fensterbau Frontale, the company will present swing door hardware applications for a wide range of building types.
