The hidden benefits of concealment

Technical performance and durability characteristics alone make Perko Powermatic® eminently suitable for a wide range of applications. Add to this the many benefits that can be derived from the closer’s total concealment when the door is closed and it is easy to see why it has become the preferred door closer in projects throughout the private and public sectors.

In addition to enabling designers to retain a clean, unhindered appearance to the door, without intrusion from unsightly boxes and mechanical devices, the benefits of concealment go far beyond aesthetic considerations: A reduced opportunity for the door closer to be vandalised improves reliability of the door to close when needed, particularly important in times of emergency; its ability to be mounted at low levels and the fact that it is hidden from view make Perko Powermatic® ideal for anti-ligature applications and, finally, the absence of significant horizontal surfaces minimises exposure to germs and detritus, enhancing hygiene and simplifying cleaning.

Perko Powermatic® also boasts a plethora of technical performance credentials which enhance its suitability for a wide variety of fire door applications in critical areas of buildings and in buildings where user safety and reliability of the door are of paramount importance. These include CE marking, Certifire approval and compliance with Approved Document M of the Building Regulations.

These key features of enhanced aesthetics, vandal-proofing and anti-ligature suitability, together with outstanding performance capabilities, make Perko Powermatic® ideal for all sorts of projects, including schools, hospitals, secure units, hotel, leisure and commercial developments.
