Engineering
Offset pivot, clear floorThe leaf turns on an axis inboard of its edge, so the core areas inside and outside the opening stay free and a tight plan keeps its floor in use.
Nearly 180 degrees, both waysThe catalogue gives the leaf a large opening angle close to 180 degrees and movement in both directions, so bulky items and several people pass without a hinge limit.
Cast-aluminium art faceSeveral leaves carry a sculpted cast-aluminium face set into the leaf, drawn in bronze, stone and dark tones, with the pivot hardware kept out of the closed face.
Balanced load, longer lifeThe catalogue says the pivot spreads and balances the load, which reduces sag and deformation of the leaf and cuts wear on the hardware parts.
Specifying for heat and value
African projects are usually specified against two drivers: heat, and the total landed cost of the glazing line. Single-glass build-ups cut weight and freight in the container; insulating units step in where comfort or acoustics are required. Both run on the same frame, so the build-up is a line on the quotation, not a different product.
Wall thickness and finish are the second lever. The 6063-T5 sections in the range are extruded in-house, and the anodised and thermal-transfer finish lines are the standard shortlist.
Full-container loading
The container is the unit of supply: a full box of modules for one phase, packed upright with edge protection, with the loading plan drawn against your opening schedule.
Transit to the port of discharge, and the documentation for clearing, travel with the shipment. Transit times are confirmed per route at quotation.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Do you ship to West and East Africa?
Yes. Full-container loading is the standard supply unit, and the loading plan for your opening schedule comes with the quotation.
Can we mix single and insulating glass in one container?
Yes. The glazing build-up is specified per opening on the schedule, so one container can carry both configurations; the mix is confirmed in the loading plan.
What is the Yingfei offset-hinge door?
It is the offset-hinge entrance door of the AURORA range, printed on catalogue pages 075 to 084. The leaf turns on a pivot set inboard of its edge, which the catalogue gives as the answer for narrow spaces and small apartments.
How is it different from a standard swing door?
The pivot sits inboard of the leaf edge and the leaf opens through a large angle, close to 180 degrees, in both directions, so the core areas inside and outside the opening stay clear. A standard side hinge sweeps the leaf across that floor.
