This quality mark and prestigious seal of approval for incisive, innovative product development is granted every year within the framework of the international “red dot design award” competition.


DORMA MOVEO
DORMA MOVEO has heralded a new age in the planning, installation and application of movable walls. Techniques developed in aircraft engineering involving the use of stable, light materials have been utilised in the development of this truly advanced generation of operable partitions. With speed, lightness and flexibility all available in one and the same solution, the MOVEO concept satisfies the demands of architects, fabricators and operators involved in modern project buildings like no other movable wall system.

DORMA PHA 2500 panic hardware
With its PHA 2500 panic hardware (crossbar emergency exit device with integrated panic lock), DORMA is able to offer a compelling solution in terms of design and functional efficiency for single and double narrow-stile doors. The PHA 2500 excels both in terms of its harmonious styling and its impressive technical features – no visible fixings, satisfaction of the “low projection” requirement according to EN 1125 (projection of the crossbar fitting <100 mm from the door face), and an electronic cylinder combined with a mechanical knob.
