Twenty-year success

Carl F Groupco has supplied the fully reversible Roto FRH UNI window hardware to the UK market for 20 years.

During the past two decades, the FRH UNI range has become the most successful window product range in Carl F Groupco’s portfolio, the company said.

FRH UNI hardware is designed to suit traditional reversible window profiles, including PVCU, timber, aluminium and timber/aluminium composite windows. It’s a robust hardware system designed for situations where safe control of the window opening is necessary, including high-rise applications where wind and height issues are of concern. Safety features, such as integral child restrictors and reverse catches, provide ultimate protection.

The FRH UNI system offers multiple options for opening, including top swing hinges, which allow end users to fully reverse the window, and projecting side/top hung hinges for standard outward opening window operation. These hinges use the same sash and frame details, allowing any style to be fitted without changing profile routing. This ensures a uniform aesthetic appearance of all window designs and provides a standardised window style throughout a property.

Carl F Groupco’s Roto product manager Julie Warner said: “It’s been a pleasure to be a part of the FRH UNI’s growth and success over the last 20 years. Since Roto acquired the brand in 2016, we have seen major product developments to futureproof the range. The biggest enhancement has been to upgrade all components to grade five corrosion resistance as standard, which has been a massive appeal to new and existing customers.”
