The benefits of hardware
Schuco VarioTec
Schuco is first and foremost the largest system design firm in the field of joinery. In order for things to fit perfectly, the designers from Schuco decided to create their own hardware systems adaptable to any of the series of profiles created. These hardware systems are designed to last and impress. You are the beneficiary of an exclusive product.
The first thing Schuco engineers have in mind is the ability of the hardware to last a long time. This allows you to enjoy many years of perfectly functional joinery.
If most hardware systems involve cutting and joining metal components, operations that increase the risk of corrosion, the Schuco VarioTec hardware system offers a modular mechanism composed of electrostatically treated elements that blend perfectly with polyamide elements creating a unitary assembly that does not require special maintenance over time.

Schüco Avantec SimplySmart
Visionary thinking needs flexibility and creative freedom. It responds to this trend in Schüco architecture with the world's first hardware, completely hidden with a 180 ° opening. Schüco AvanTec SimplySmart is a generation of inward-opening mechanical hardware that combines timeless design and functional versatility with an economical assembly procedure. In addition to the flexible, tool-free assembly, other design features such as the absence of hinges on the outside combined with the large dimensions of the frames define the uniqueness of this generation of hardware.
In addition, Schüco offers great architectural freedom through the possibility of making frames weighing up to 250 kg as well as complete openings, up to 180º, which was previously possible only with the applied hardware. In addition, Schüco has revolutionized hardware assembly technology. Components such as the corner bearing, scissors and the corner guide are mounted on the rim without tools. This is possible through a new clipping technology, through which the hardware components can be mounted on the sash joined at the corners, directly on the end positions. In addition to assembly technology, the order of assembly operations has also been made more flexible.

Mechanisms
This category includes the corners that continue the polyamide rod between two perpendicular sides, the scissor arm that allows the window to open in the hinged position and the locks that close the sash hardware in the frame places, on all four sides.
The corners contain special joining elements that give continuity to the rods ensuring their movement left / right or up / down without opposing mechanical resistance.
The scissor arm ensures connectivity with the upper hinge and allows the opening of ventilation windows supporting heavy weights.
The locks can be cylindrical or mushroom type that
