The Atlas friction hinge is the perfect solution for heavy duty egress windows. Accommodating sash weights of up to 50kg and sash widths of up to 1000mm.
The range includes Egress Easy Clean and Egress Only hinges, with a unique geometry providing a maximum clear opening for egress requirements. This greater opening means the Atlas is also ideal for smaller windows where compliance with minimum clear opening dimensions are critical. An easy clean dimension well in excess of British Standards requirements means cleaning the outside of windows is safer and easier, and the hinge automatically resets upon closing.
