BILOBA

The self-closing screw-on hinge for glass doors

The original for double-action and rebated doors: The BILOBA screw-on hinge has an automatic self-closing function thanks to the integrated hydraulic damping. Patent-protected worldwide and tested in over a million opening cycles, the hinge’s adjustable closing speed can be perfectly adapted to the user’s needs. 

About BILOBA

Bespoke support for transparent room concepts

Thanks to the adjustability of the closing speed, BILOBA is the first choice for sophisticated buildings which need doors to close in a gentle and controlled manner. The doors can be opened manually with little force and automatically close at the set speed. With BILOBA, you can account for a range of door weights, door widths and user walking speeds. Moreover, the hinge is ideal for cases where controlled self-closing is mandatory.

Finishes

Variety for successfully setting the scene

BILOBA is available in different high-quality finishes which allow the screw-on hinge to be aesthetically coordinated, for example, in matte-gold or black for an eye-catching look. Even more finishes allow for a conspicuous or subtle appearance – it’s completely up to you. 

Areas of application

High-quality design
for all situations

Due to a large finish variety and an individualised, visually high-quality design, this classic hinge is suitable for a wide range of applications. This hinge is used in office and administrative buildings, showrooms, museums and upmarket culinary establishments.  

The hydraulic concept

Hinges with
door-closing function

BILOBA has an integrated, hydraulic damping which ensures the closing process is gentle and controlled and prevents the door oscillating around the zero position. The doors can optionally be equipped with door push handles or a latch lock and strike box. The latch of the lock is retracted quietly and reliably into the striker plate, preventing damage to glass, hinges and locks as well as noise. Thanks to an infinitely variable regulator on the hinge, it’s possible to adapt the closing speed to a range of door weights, door widths and user walking speeds on a case-by-case basis. 

The hydraulic concept

Patent-protected
worldwide

The hydraulic hinges are patent-protected worldwide. They are TÜV-certified in accordance with EN 1154:2006 and are therefore functionally equivalent to conventional door closers. The effectiveness of the hinges is greater than traditional door closers (90% compared to 60%). The doors can be opened manually with little force and close automatically at the set speed. So it makes sense to install hydraulic hinges wherever the controlled self-closing of doors is required by law or for technical reasons.
