May 2025 marks the 45th Building Safety Month, a campaign led by the International Code Council to educate the public on building safety. Roto North America supports this initiative and promotes building safety through innovative hardware and community involvement.
Roto products promote safety
Effective building safety begins with ensuring secure and efficient emergency doors and windows. Roto’s Safe P Multi-point locking system is one such solution, allowing doors to unlock and open in one smooth motion for speed and ease of use. Additionally, the Angel WOCD provides extra security for hung & sliding windows, protecting against child falls while remaining a code-compliant emergency exit, unlike night latches and vent limiters.
Improving weather resistance is another element of building safety that can be enhanced using various Roto solutions such as the Inowa sliding patio door system. The Inowa features advanced sealing technology that protects against noise, water, and air infiltration. The Kempton 4-bar Hinge for Push-Out is another option that ensures stable, reliable operation even in wind-prone areas, while the HPD1 Hinged Patio Door Locking System offers lasting durability with corrosion-resistant 304 SST elements, enhancing both weather resistance and overall building safety.
Community service
Roto also prioritizes its local community. Chris Dimou, President and CEO of Roto North America and Chairman of the Manufacturers’ Council at the Middlesex County Chamber of Commerce, participates in various local events to help strengthen community ties. Additionally, as a leader in the South Central Manufacturing Project, Dimou helps provide career development opportunities for future manufacturing professionals.
Through innovative hardware solutions and community involvement, Roto continuously supports Building Safety Month, underscoring that high-quality hardware is the foundation of building safety.
