The FSB acronym is a byword the world over for visually and functionally top-quality system solutions for doors and windows - and a lot more besides. The specialist expertise we have amassed in over 135 years in business has, however, given rise to more than “just” premium door handles that have found their way into New York's Museum of Modern Art. Another reason architects and builders' clients cherish products from Brakel is that we have an advanced understanding of the requirements of modern Civic/Commercial construction. Everything that has anything at all to do with handle culture in built...

So we continue to contribute by way of door hardware systems to high-quality architecture under the motto: “The detail makes the design”. Consistency...

Materials and finishes Aluminium FSB 0105 Aluminium Natural-Colour Anodised FSB 6217 Aluminium Scumble-Lacquered Stainless Steel Aluminium is the most commonly occurring metal in the Earth’s crust. In comparison to other metals, Aluminium has not been known for long – it was first produced with a chemical reaction in 1808. From the very beginning, Aluminium has been used as a hi-tech material wherever there was a need for both lightness and great durability. Neither space travel, aircraft construction or car making would be conceivable without it; indeed, some key innovations in these sectors...

FSB adopts the standard direct-current sulphuric acid electrolyte method for its anodising operations. The oxide layer created with this standard method is approx. 10 μm thick and has a hardness of up to 350 kp/mm2 (Vickers), the equivalent of 2,500–3,500 N/mm2. This artificially created anodised layer protects the Aluminium. Dirt spots can be removed with water and a soft cloth. The lacquered closers and hinges have been tested to EN 1670 and easily meet the criteria for Class 4 status, which testifies to a high degree of durability in outdoor applications under very extreme conditions. Thus...

Materials and finishes S tainless Steel In 1912, the Krupp company in Essen took out the first patents for a new material which became familiar in pre-war Germany under the names “Nirosta” (never rust) and “V2a-steel”. A variety of applications quickly opened up for this new material: from the construction of containers in the chemical industry through to designs in car and aircraft construction, from building materials to household appliances. The generic term “Stainless Steel” now embraces over 100 separate rust and acidresistant steels. We use chromium-nickel steel bearing Material No. 1.4301...
