VBH Hinge Sees Surge in Popularity

VBH's greenteQ hinge

Hardware manufacturer VBH is reporting a surge in the popularity of its greenteQ Sigma Flag Hinge, thanks to new colors and its 10-year surface guarantee.

About the product

VBH describes the product as a quality adjustable hinge for rebated PVCu doors weighing up to 100 kg. Its 3D adjustment is carried out with a standard 5-millimeter hex key, to make setting up the door on-site easy for installers.

“Thanks to its design, Sigma remains a stylish product and looks great even on older and newer profile designs. It is the standard door hinge for many fabricators of all sizes not only for its appearance but also because it is easy to fit and is installer-friendly," says Gary Gleeson, VBH marketing manager.

“We are always talking to customers about the benefits of our greenteQ range of suited resi-door, patio door and window furniture, of which Sigma is a major component. The introduction of new colors, coupled with the other benefits of Sigma, has led many fabricators to choose Sigma Flag as their hinge option.”

As with all greenteQ Suite products, even the plated finishes of the Sigma hinge are supplied with a full 10-year function and finish guarantee.

“It often comes as a surprise to potential customers that our 10-year guarantee also covers the finish on plated greenteQ furniture, as that doesn’t seem to be the norm in the industry. However, our furniture’s six layers of copper, chrome and nickel give it excellent protection against the elements so we are happy to back that up with the same guarantee as the painted versions," says Gleeson. “This is often the tipping point that makes fabricators choose Sigma and the greenteQ Suite in general, as pitted furniture can easily damage a hard-earned reputation for quality. A lot can hinge on a hinge.”
