Window and Door Technology: Barrier-Free 0 Thresholds
Mestre Raposa International® is one of the pioneers in innovative solutions in the window and door technology market. One such advancement is our Barrier-Free 0 thresholds for house and balcony doors, meticulously crafted in accordance with DIN 18040 standards.
For over two decades, we have championed flat thresholds with a height of 20 mm, meeting the accessibility requirements outlined by DIN 18040. These thresholds have been seamlessly integrated into balcony and house doors, ensuring ease of access for individuals using wheelchairs.
0 Threshold:
In addition to our standard thresholds, we are pleased to offer the revolutionary 0 threshold, a product developed by Alumat in 1996. This magnetic threshold boasts an impressive zero-centimeter elevation, catering to various door types including those made of wood or aluminum. Architects and planners laud its functionality and aesthetics, often incorporating it into their projects.
The versatility of the 0 threshold extends beyond residential settings, finding applications in commercial spaces such as hotels, restaurants, retirement homes, hospitals and children’s facilities. Its appeal lies not only in its accessibility features but also in its variety of benefits:
- Excellent sealing: Our Alumat threshold provides superior protection against wind and rain, ensuring the interior remains dry and comfortable even in adverse weather conditions.
- Improved heat and sound insulation: With improved heat and sound insulation properties, our thresholds contribute to creating a more energy-efficient and acoustically pleasant environment.
- Accessibility: Designed with disabled persons and wheelchair users in mind, our thresholds promote inclusivity and ease of movement for all individuals.
- No wear and tear-no mechanics: Engineered to withstand the test of time, our thresholds boast a wear-resistant design with no mechanical components, ensuring long-lasting performance.
