INSIGHTS: THOUGHTS ON DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION

August 5, 2024

Welcome to INsights, Insensation’s blog where we will explore our thoughts on design and construction. You will notice the IN is large, as it is in our INsensation logo, because we will put an emphasis on the interior aspect of design. Insensation means ‘interior sensation’, and even though we also manufacture very high-end exterior, entrance doors, these doors are also have an interior side which we can design to match the frameless interior doors of a luxury residence.

Nr. 1: Universality: one product for all walls and situations. Advanced design for high-end architecture.

Nr. 2: Quality Engineering: Slam Side Protection™, Dual Point Fixation™ and OneP Installation™ are just a few of many unique characteristics of Insensation engineering which no other frameless door company provides.

Nr. 3: Demo Centers: Insensation is the only expert frameless door company that has built and runs seven high-tech demo centers for contractors and architects to see the latest in frameless door technology.

NEW MAGNETIC PERFECTION

November 6, 2023
NEW MAGNETIC PERFECTION

Insensation’s use of magnetic lockcases in frameless doors goes way back to 2002 when we implemented the first frameless doors in Switzerland. The lack of a visible strike plate was a novelty at that time. Today, Insensation implements magnetic technology across a wide spectrum of functionality.

Magnetic Lockcases come in several versions for passage, privacy and security locks.

Magnetic Rollers are used to hold closet doors shut, and are recessed into our frames and doors.

Magnetic NoHa (No Handle) is used when clients want absolute minimalism with no levers.

Magnetic Stoppers are sunk into floors and doors to hold them from hitting the walls.

BIOMETRIC ENTRANCE DOORS

September 20, 2023

All Insensation’s Entrance doors are security doors, and come with extreme security options like bullet-proof cores and locks, and high-tech security access systems.

Our Smart Access is a motorised electronic lock purposely designed for use on armoured doors. The opening and closing functions are controlled by a motor and an electronic card with a state-of-the-art microprocessor. Even in the event of a power failure, the door can still be opened using the mechanical key which, thanks to a security system, can disconnect the motor during the activation of the mechanical cylinder. The system is scalable, and can be used as a simple keypad with code access or with extensive, combinable access controls for the inside and outside of the residence such as:

Biometric Fingerprint Scan, Keypad Code, Smartphone access, Smartwatch access, Transponder (fob), Card access
