Bohle has launched a standalone black Alva fitting, as well as an Alva with back check, providing installers with additional versatility and efficiency to win more projects and maximise their margin.
The black colourway of the Alva self-closing patch fitting, which was previously only included in the PT20 and PT24 sets, has now been released as a single product.
“We know that margins are tight for installers”, explains Paul Miller, National Sales Manager. “By offering the black Alva as a single product, rather than as part of a set, we are giving installers the products that their customers are demanding, at a price that will help them to succeed.”
As well as the introduction of the standalone black colourway, a back check will also be available to add on to the brushed stainless steel and black RAL 9005 matt Alva finishes, incorporating an innovative design that intercepts and slows down the rapid opening of a door. The back check protects the door from hitting a wall if thrown open too quickly, in strong gusts of wind, for example.
“This function for a hydraulic, self-closing fitting is truly unique”, adds Paul Miller. “It adds an extra level of safety and provides a unique selling point for installers.
The Alva self-closing patch fitting enables quick installation without the need for time-consuming floor recesses. The entire hydraulic system for the self-closing function is housed in a slim fitting, and the fitting is fixed to the floor with screws using a base plate.
And encased within a sleek and contemporary cover, it ensures a clean appearance while still delivering high-quality performance.
Significant investment has gone into developing Alva, and we truly believe it to be a market-leading fitting. Its mounting plate has been designed to be exceptionally accurate, giving it a perfect fit and excellent aesthetics.
It’s also certified to DIN EN 1154 standards, delivering durability and long-term performance. It really is an unmissable asset to your installation toolkit.”
