Meca
Welding, a small family run Blacksmith company based in Belgium, has recently
specified P C Henderson’s Securefold folding door hardware for the renovation
of a pool house at a residential property in Shilde, Belgium.
Specialising
in the creation of wrought iron windows and doors - Meca Welding worked with
the owners of the property to specify an exterior folding door solution for the
property.
The
project brief required a system which could be fully opened during the warmer
months and securely closed off during the winter - whilst also considering the
architectural style and design aesthetics of the building.
Vincent Campforts, General Manager at Meca Welding, commented “We
opted for glazed doors with a black wrought iron frame in order to match the
homes modern interior. Due to the slim profile and minimalistic design of the
doors, it was important that the hardware used to create the folding mechanism
would complement the doors exactly.”
P C Henderson’s Securefold 100 exterior folding door hardware was
identified as the best solution for the project.
“After carrying out some online research, we came across P C
Henderson. We contacted the companies Holland office and arranged a visit to
their showroom where we could view some of the systems first hand. After
viewing Securefold we knew it was the perfect system for our project – it was
secure, versatile, sleek in design and readily available in the matt black
finish we were looking for,” continued Vincent.
Due to
Securefold’s multiple configuration options and high levels of flexibility,
Meca Welding was able to provide its customer with a system that met their
exact requirements – 6 panels folding inwards to one side – providing a
completely clear opening for those warm summer months.
Rene van
den Biggellaar, Business Unit Manager at P C Henderson commented: “Securefold
is an all-encompassing system – its high levels of flexibility means that it
can be used for almost any exterior folding door solution. We were delighted to
be able to work with Meca Building on this project and see our hardware
combined with the wrought iron doors they created – it created an impressive
contemporary style and it was great to see our Securefold system used in this
way.”
P C
Henderson’s Securefold folding door hardware is available in four different
hinge options (standard, mortice radius, mortice squared and non-mortice), four
stunning finishes (black, gold, satin and chrome), top hung and bottom rolling
variants and a range of door configurations to suit both inward and outward
opening. The system is manufactured using marine grade 316 stainless steel
making it ideal for exterior and coastal use.
