Architects get hands-on:
New handle collections from FSB

FSB feels that de­ci­sions for or against a given door handle model always need to be taken bearing the sur­round­ing ar­chi­tec­ture in mind. A space’s idiom, after all, ar­tic­u­lates itself in com­pressed form in a handle’s design. Either the handle becomes a har­mo­nious part of the whole, or it quite de­lib­er­ately creates a point of con­trast. The very nature of FSB’s dis­course with ar­chi­tects in­di­cates just how deeply en­grained in the company’s think­ing ar­chi­tec­ture is.

Good looks down to the last detail:
FSB window handles for narrow profiles

There is a solid tra­di­tion at FSB of re­fin­ing prod­ucts whose form and func­tion are already well es­tab­lished and of con­stantly en­hanc­ing their fine detail. The eastern West­phalian makers of system so­lu­tions for doors, windows and bar­rier-free con­ve­nience never in the process lose sight of chang­ing ar­chi­tec­tural re­quire­ments. The new FSB window handles for narrow pro­files have been de­signed in re­sponse to a trend cham­pi­oning fil­i­gree de­sign-en­gi­neer­ing so­lu­tions that un­ob­tru­sively blend in with the host ar­chi­tec­ture.

End-to-end FSB quality:
single-source lock and handle hardware

FSB pre­sents a coor­di­na­ted a coor­di­na­ted modular lock+handle hard­wa­re system for single and dou­ble-leaf emer­gency-exit doors (flush).

End-to-end FSB quality:
lock and hardware from a single source

FSB is re-uni­ting what was once one with a com­prehen­si­ve range of mortice locks. In pre-in­dus­trial times, after all, lock and hard­wa­re formed a single unit. The two com­po­nents became de­ta­ched as it were in the course of in­dus­tria­li­sa­tion – and their se­pa­ra­tion was sealed by a series of in­dus­trial stan­dards.

The ErgoSystem® A100 from FSB:
Freedom from barriers simple and attractive to modest budgets

FSB expands the Er­goSys­tem® to a system family: with the new Er­goSys­tem® A100, FSB pre­sents the bud­get-at­trac­tive al­ter­na­tive to the Er­goSys­tem® E300. Whilst the latter is often pre­ferred for ex­clu­sive fur­nish­ings (e.g. hotels) and op­tional service areas, bud­get-sen­si­tive pro­jects can also enjoy FSB quality with the Er­goSys­tem® A100.

The ErgoSystem® in its individual parts:
FSB provides detailed grasp of their quality and design

Er­goSys­tem® man­u­fac­turer FSB has now come up with a truly “ex­plo­sive” idea for a product series that has gar­nered the “Red Dot Design Award”, the “iF Award” and the “ar­chi­tec­ture + health In­no­va­tion Prize” amongst others: the company from Brakel in eastern West­phalia is dis­play­ing all the parts of its func­tional and supremely well-crafted Er­goSys­tem® in­di­vid­u­ally.

Classics for modernity from FSB:
door and window hardware in bronze for inside and out

Along­side design and er­gonom­ics, a key role is played by the ma­te­r­ial in the man­u­fac­ture of fit­tings. In adopt­ing bronze, FSB has revived a ma­te­r­ial that is his­toric in two senses.
