Nowadays floor-to-ceiling window and door elements are an important feature of the facade, which serves as the calling card of a building, so to speak. But the heavy windows and doors have to be opened, closed or tilted too. This is where the electric drive comes in: its powerful motor can turn and tilt windows weighing up to 200 kilograms. A proximity sensor activates the control panel integrated into the slender housing. The interface consists of capacitive touch buttons and an LED display that indicates the status of the drive and the opening width of the window.

Jury
A meticulously designed product that is also suitable for retrofitting and therefore deliberately understated. That’s refreshing for a technical product that performs a purely auxiliary function.
