If you live in an apartment with a balcony or a house with a garden, the possibility of adding another area to your living space in summer is particularly appealing.

Antibacterial / Antimicrobial Handles

Hygiene standards are particularly stringent in the hospital sector. When it comes to eyes in particular, a strict hygiene concept must be observed, because the eye is one of the most sensitive organs in the human body.

Reference Buildings

The Gütschhöhe residential complex towering above Lucerne is special in many respects. It is not only located next to the well-known luxury hotel Gütsch, but also has a rather unusual concept for a location like this. In the cooperative building, there are only rented apartments at particularly low rental rates.

Upon the reunification of Germany in 1990, Friedrich Hoppe and his sons were strongly determined to make an active contribution to the setting up of the free and social market economy in East Germany.

The police recommend that a burglary-resistant window handle must “withstand a force of 100 Nm” – this means that a perpetrator will have to use a great deal of force to overcome the locking mechanism and turn the handle forcibly. The chances that a window can be opened in this way are already quite low in this case – they are even lower with a HOPPE window handle with SecuSelect^® and Secu100^® + Secustik^®.

In summer, we also long for lightness in our living environment – and it’s no coincidence that numerous lifestyle magazines provide us with the latest “summer looks” for living rooms and the like in their summer editions.

Antibacterial / Antimicrobial Handles

Gastrointestinal infections are very unpleasant and often occur during the summer. This may be due to the fact that people often eat outdoors when the weather is good: on the one hand, bacteria multiply particularly well in food in warm weather, and on the other hand, barbecued meat may be contaminated with bacteria.

Antibacterial / Antimicrobial Handles

The time has almost come: the summer holidays are about to start and with them the holiday season. Many of us jump in the car and immediately head to the North Sea, the Adriatic or Riviera once schools have broken up.

Antibacterial / Antimicrobial Handles

Hygiene and germs are a major topic in retirement and care homes. Because their residents often have a weakened immune system due to their age or pre-existing conditions and are therefore more susceptible to infections.

Antibacterial / Antimicrobial Handles

Public buildings, such as sports facilities, schools or offices, place particularly high demands on the durability of door fittings: it is not uncommon for hundreds of people to use them within a short period of time – not always with particular care – and they must still work flawlessly even after many years.

Antibacterial / Antimicrobial Handles

They’re suddenly out again in force: People sneezing and carrying tissues. The cold virus season is here!

Burglary Protection

A burglary-resistant window handle is primarily expected to prevent the window from being opened from the outside. This can be done with a keyed cylinder, for example, which blocks the turning mechanism of the window handle.
