Sliding doors are considered to be space-saving and offer a wide range of setup options. But aren’t they also difficult to operate and noisy? These are often the concerns when it comes to choosing the right door. But these disadvantages are now a thing of the past, thanks to high-quality Soft Close dampers. The Zimmer Group’s self-closing units ensure exclusive living comfort through quiet, controlled and secure closing and feature easy integration and retrofittability.
Your advantages when it comes to self-closing devices from Zimmer
The Soft Close damper is usually fitted to the top or bottom of the sliding door to close it gently and quietly. The mechanism consisting of the spring, actuator and locking lever exerts a gentle force on the door, slowing it down just before it closes completely and preventing it from slamming shut uncontrollably.
The self-closing devices are available in different versions depending on your requirements, including inward or outward closing as well as double closing for doors that will be opened both to the left and to the right. The significantly improved living comfort is reflected in several advantages associated with this function.
Convenient opening and closing
The advantage is obvious: Soft Close damping makes using the door noticeably more comfortable and convenient. Cumbersome, jamming old sliding doors are a thing of the past; instead, Zimmer’s self-closing systems support easy and elegant operation.
More security for your home
Soft Close dampers help to minimize the risk of injury or damage to the door and wall. You won’t have any trapped fingers thanks to the door braking before final closing. Especially if you live with small children or front doors, the damping systems make your living space much safer and more comfortable.
More comfort thanks to less noise
The controlled closing of the sliding door prevents unwanted noises such as loud slamming. This also makes them ideal for environments where noise can be a problem, such as in apartments with high noise levels or even in hospitals.
Longer service life for your door
Material-friendly for walls and doors: The Soft Close dampers prevent excessive stress on the sliding door and the fittings, which also has a long-term effect on the service life of the door.
