Created as an innovative system for sliding door pull, the Flat door pull handles are designed in one single plate by enveloping three sides of the door, integrating both the locking and opening functions.
The opening and sliding functions are obtained by pushing the disk located in the upper part of the plate, while the locking function, by means of a thumb-turn knob, is located in the lower part of the same plate. Made of special alloy, Flat is available in chrome and satin chrome finishes.
Named after the Italian word Otto, which means eight, the Otto door handle has been designed with technological innovation. Otto features a single plate, characterised by an elegant figure of eight shape created by the intersection of two circles, which combines the door’s opening and closing functions.
The lower circle englobes the thumb-turn locking knob, and the upper circle the sliding/opening function. Made of forged brass, Otto is available in many finishes like polished brass, satin brass, satin bronze, chrome, satin chrome, and satin nickel.
