Hinge boosts workplace safety
Installation of the 1110-SU123 hinge is a simple matter using blind M6 screws on the door and countersunk M6 screws for the main body of the hinge.
This gives enclosure manufacturers a much reduced stock requirement for varying cabinet door sizes, typically leading to a 40% reduction in stock costs on this component type.
OEM/specialist cabinet producers up to now have needed to stock both single and three-point cams, but now need only stock the popular and low cost single point item with a small quantity of adapters.
The 1000 cam adapter is a precision zinc die component suitable for the complete range of Emka 1000 quarter-turn locks where the standard single point cam is appropriate.
Fixing is a single bolt operation and may be carried out in cabinet manufacture, at installation, or as a retrofit, by removing the cam fixing bolt and refitting, then installing the rod system to the door, thus providing two more closure points for improved sealing and security on longer doors.
