Increased Safety
The HES1F is a winner of the “Kids Design Award” in Japan. The award program is run by an NPO called the Kids Design Association and it honours designs that enhance children’s security and safety, foster children’s creativity, and facilitate raising children. Note: This award does not guarantee safety, but shows that the product is within Japan’s “Better Living” standards.
A unique trajectory that promotes safety
When doors with a standard single-axis hinge are opened and closed, a large gap is created between the hinge side of the door and the door frame. This can increase the risk of accidentally getting fingers caught or pinched between the door and the frame.
The HES series* uses a unique trajectory to keep the gap between the door and the frame at less than 5 mm which reduces the risk of injury.
Easy Installation
3D Door Adjustment
The door position can be adjusted in three directions even post-installation (Vertical: ±4mm / Horizontal: ±2mm / Depth: ±1mm). Additionally, the hinge can be separated into two parts: the door and frame sides which helps make installation a lot easier.
No Help Needed
The HES can be split into two parts (door/frame sides) . A lever on the hinge baseplate is turned once the door side of the hinge is inserted into the baseplate. This allows the door to be held temporally until the screws are fixed.
The HES series has a great reputation for its high durability. It has been a preferred choice in the Japanese market for over 30 years. Endurance tests are performed in order to ensure durability. The HES series passed 300,000* private open/close cycle tests.
*Models for cabinet doors passed 50,000 cycles.
