Window and Door Technology: Advanced Barrier-Free 0 Thresholds
Mestre Raposa International® stands at the forefront of innovation in window and door technology, exemplified by our advanced Barrier-Free 0 thresholds. These solutions, meticulously engineered to adhere to DIN 18040 standards, represent a significant advancement in accessibility and functionality.
For over two decades, we have been pioneering the use of flat thresholds with a height of 20 mm, compliant with DIN 18040 accessibility requirements. Our thresholds are seamlessly integrated into both balcony and house doors, facilitating effortless access for individuals using wheelchairs and other mobility aids.
0 Threshold:
In addition to our traditional thresholds, we are proud to offer the groundbreaking 0 threshold, a product introduced by Alumat in 1996. This magnetic threshold features an innovative zero-centimeter elevation, suitable for various door types including wood and aluminum. It is highly regarded by architects and planners for its superior functionality and aesthetic appeal, making it a popular choice for modern design projects.
The 0 threshold is versatile, extending its benefits beyond residential applications to commercial environments such as hotels, restaurants, retirement homes, hospitals and childcare facilities. Its advantages include:
- Exceptional Sealing: The Alumat threshold provides superior protection against wind and rain, ensuring a dry and comfortable indoor environment regardless of external weather conditions.
- Enhanced Insulation: Our thresholds offer improved thermal and acoustic insulation, contributing to a more energy-efficient and acoustically comfortable space.
- Accessibility: Designed with inclusivity in mind, our thresholds facilitate ease of movement for all individuals, including those with disabilities or using wheelchairs.
- Durability and Maintenance: Featuring a wear-resistant design and lacking mechanical components, our thresholds are engineered for longevity and minimal maintenance.
- Compatibility with Passive Houses: Our thresholds meet the stringent standards required for passive housing, supporting the creation of sustainable and eco-friendly living spaces.
