Additional features ensure each hinge is fit for application with safety cut-off, friction resistance, lock facility, compatibility with aluminium frames, hinge adaptors and frame component accessories to make assembly easier.

The Elesa website also has an online configurator which allows customers to check the suitability of the hinge selected, with respect to the loads under real operating conditions, as well as a guide with some pointers to the proper application of plastic hinges or steel hinges. Elesa also present a selection of hinges made in the new colour next to traditional black: grey RAL 7040, created to harmonise the tone of the component with that of the aluminium profiles on which they are installed. Also interesting is the range of metal hinges, including stainless steel hinges that allow a high corrosion resistance for use in environments subject to frequent washing and cleaning cycles.
