HOPPE AMSTERDAM SECUFORTE® DK window handle with lock

AMSTERDAM is a DK anti-intrusion hammer with lock.‎ The classic shape of the HOPPE Amsterdam series is characterised by the contrast between rounded elements and accentuated edges and is one of HOPPE's most popular series.‎  For almost all areas of application in buildings, from exterior to interior doors, profile doors, balcony doors to windows there is a suitable Amsterdam handle, often equipped with additional technology, such as HOPPE Quadro Rapido, which allows for quick and precise assembly on the door, or Resista®, the 10-year surface guarantee.‎  From now on, Amsterdam series hammers are also available with SecuForte®.‎  With SecuForte®, HOPPE offers a completely new standard in burglary resistance.‎ When the window is closed or tilted, the handle and square spindle are uncoupled and the handle is automatically locked.‎ It is a unique concept that protects against the unauthorised opening of a window from outside.‎ SecuForte® has been registered for both a patent and a brand.‎ Simple.‎ Different.‎ More secure.‎ Window handles with SecuForte® give burglars essentially no options for manipulating the window: As long as the handle is decoupled from the square spindle, it is virtually impossible to operate the handle from outside.‎ SecuForte® protects not only against displacing the window fitting from outside, but also against the break-in methods of piercing the glass seal or drilling the frame in order to be able to turn the window handle from outside.‎ The advantages • Protection against break-ins by piercing the glass seal, drilling the frame or manipulating the hardware • Automatic locking function when the window is closed (0°) and when tilted (180°) • Certified according to RAL • With adjustable spindle VarioFit® • Also available with cylinder locking New protection principle = New actuation of window handle SecuForte® handles are moved differently than usual, but very simply all the same.‎ To open the window, the handle is first pushed in the direction of the rosette.‎ This releases the locking and the handle can be turned as usual.‎ When closing or tilting the window, the handle is locked and can only be operated by pushing it again.‎ The principle of “push to turn” has been around for a long time.‎ It is used, for example, in child-proof bottles for dangerous materials such as medications and cleaning products, to make the container virtually impossible to be opened by children and protect them against injuries that may be caused by the content of the bottle.‎ More window security with SecuForte® Window handles with SecuForte® are decoupled and locked when the window is closed or tilted, which means the handle and the square spindle are not connected.‎ A burglar may be able to reach the handle by piercing the glass seal or drilling the frame and break it off the rosette using massive physical force, yet the spindle will not move.‎
