Richterswil, July 2024 - ASSA ABLOY (Schweiz) AG is expanding its Planet finger protection portfolio with the FSA 8800 series for swing doors. The innovative fastening technology for efficient planning, quick installation and clean appearance is now also available for doors with Dr. Hahn 4 AT door hinge.

Installing a professional finger guard prevents injuries when closing doors and is an effective measure to increase the safety of people. With the hinge-side cover profile FSA 8800 for doors with roller hinges, diameters 18, 20 and 22 mm, Planet offers a series in the well-known finger protection range that is characterised in particular by low planning and installation effort. The time-saving handling does not compromise on safe functionality and high dimensional accuracy. There is good news for customers of the German door hinge manufacturer Dr. Hahn, as a variant specially designed for the 4 AT door hinge is now also available.

Cover profile FSA 8800 [S30]: Screwless, secure and elegant
In terms of simplicity, safety and elegance, the new FSA 8800 [S30] cover profile is in no way inferior to the other profiles in the series. While several aluminium profiles have to be screwed together in other systems, a screwless plug-in system consisting of only one profile is used here. Even without further specialist knowledge, this well-thought-out design can be used to efficiently secure doors within a few minutes and ensure that the finger protection system fits perfectly in the hinge axis. An optionally available positioning gauge ensures that the adhesive foot can be applied very quickly and precisely on the bottom side.

Smart design for long-lasting simplicity
Even after installation, the smart design ensures the simplest handling over the entire product life cycle. If adjustment on the hinges or other subsequent work on the door element is necessary, the protective profiles can also be removed without tools and then reattached. Since Dr. Hahn offers the 4 AT door hinge with pivot points up to 36 mm, ASSA ABLOY also has an additional profile for special hinges with increased pivot point in its finger protection range. This can be fastened without drilling with a glued and subsequently adjustable clip holder. The FSR 6000 finger protection roller protector, which is also designed for quick installation and is ideally suited for use indoors and outdoors, is recommended as a suitable solution for securing the opposite hinge side on the secondary closing edge.

"With our door hinges, we pursue the philosophy of combining a premium look, high-quality workmanship and high functionality with the simplest handling. Details have also been incorporated into the design of our 4 AT door hinge, which make processing in the workshop and on the construction site even more efficient. Against this backdrop, the Planet finger protection cover profile FSA 8800 [S30] is the ideal addition to our product," emphasises Markus Lenze, Head of Design, Dr. Hahn GmbH & Co. KG.

Shapes, materials harmonised by colours and effects, an evocative representation of the Color Design Lechler project. The emphasis is on the visual effects, the haptic effect of the surfaces and the sustainability of the certified bio-based and water-borne products.
An opportunity to delve into topics such as technological innovation in finishes, trends in surface design and best practices for the use of sustainable products.

The colour is applied to the substrates through diversified painting processes with specific mood boards that relate colours and effects. A vision of the harmony is achieved between different materials using specific colour matrixes.

Thanks to the presented painted elements, it is possible to directly experience the textures, colours and effects of the finishes intended for metallic, plastic and wooden materials.
The proposals exhibited highlight the aesthetics of the finishes, while showing how beauty and functionality can coexist in a harmonic way. At the same time, the sustainability of the solutions proposed by Lechler-IVE and Lechler Tech is highlighted, with a particular focus on products formulated with bio-based and water-borne raw materials: this is an inspiration for sector operators to integrate sustainability into their projects without sacrificing design and performance.

The Outdoor Pleasure OIL line from Lechler-IVE formulation containing BIO-BASED products according to the ASTM D6866 standard has also obtained compliance from a third-party certified body, while satisfying the requirements of CAM, A+, IAC GOLD, and giving access to accreditation for BREEAM, LEED and WELL. The same compliances also belong to Lechler Tech's water-borne line called Lechsys Hydro.

Taking care of the future together, for us and for those who come after us.
