NEW : FLUSH HANDLES

November 15, 2024

MINIMAL DESIGN

Linear, coplanar, essential: Our S0800 handle enhances the design of the minimal door and widens the horizons of the interior designer. Design is no longer just a function as the standard lever is.

The S0800 handle offers a secure and comfortable grip. The handle design always remains coherent with the available possibilities of closing: without a key, for the bathroom with a coplanar knob and with a European profile cylinder.

PRE-INSTALLED

Like all Insensation doors, we specialize in making installation as easy as possible. If you order the S0800 on your doors, it will be pre-installed in our factory, saving you hours of work.

MAXIMUM FREEDOM

The S0800 is the first handle that creates a continuity of shape both for swinging, sliding and pocket doors, which have been always very different from the other, and allows the transversality of the handle on all doors of a house.  Like our magnetic locks and 3D concealed hinges, the S0800 is available in silver, black and white.

INSIGHTS: THOUGHTS ON DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION

August 5, 2024

Welcome to INsights, Insensation’s blog where we will explore our thoughts on design and construction. You will notice the IN is large, as it is in our INsensation logo, because we will put an emphasis on the interior aspect of design. Insensation means ‘interior sensation’, and even though we also manufacture very high-end exterior, entrance doors, these doors are also have an interior side which we can design to match the frameless interior doors of a luxury residence.

Nr. 1: Universality: one product for all walls and situations. Advanced design for high-end architecture.

Nr. 2: Quality Engineering: Slam Side Protection™, Dual Point Fixation™ and OneP Installation™ are just a few of many unique characteristics of Insensation engineering which no other frameless door company provides.

Nr. 3: Demo Centers: Insensation is the only expert frameless door company that has built and runs seven high-tech demo centers for contractors and architects to see the latest in frameless door technology.

NEW MAGNETIC PERFECTION

November 6, 2023
NEW MAGNETIC PERFECTION

Insensation’s use of magnetic lockcases in frameless doors goes way back to 2002 when we implemented the first frameless doors in Switzerland. The lack of a visible strike plate was a novelty at that time. Today, Insensation implements magnetic technology across a wide spectrum of functionality.

Magnetic Lockcases come in several versions for passage, privacy and security locks.

Magnetic Rollers are used to hold closet doors shut, and are recessed into our frames and doors.

Magnetic NoHa (No Handle) is used when clients want absolute minimalism with no levers.

Magnetic Stoppers are sunk into floors and doors to hold them from hitting the walls.

BIOMETRIC ENTRANCE DOORS

September 20, 2023

All Insensation’s Entrance doors are security doors, and come with extreme security options like bullet-proof cores and locks, and high-tech security access systems.

Our Smart Access is a motorised electronic lock purposely designed for use on armoured doors. The opening and closing functions are controlled by a motor and an electronic card with a state-of-the-art microprocessor. Even in the event of a power failure, the door can still be opened using the mechanical key which, thanks to a security system, can disconnect the motor during the activation of the mechanical cylinder. The system is scalable, and can be used as a simple keypad with code access or with extensive, combinable access controls for the inside and outside of the residence such as:

Biometric Fingerprint Scan, Keypad Code, Smartphone access, Smartwatch access, Transponder (fob), Card access

EXPEDITED SHIPPING

May 1, 2022

In these turbulent times, when all manufacturers are being challenged to deliver on time and with reasonable cost, Insensation has maintained a very high level of service. In addition to our Real-Time Tracking of ocean shipments, we now offer Expedited shipping of our frameless doors.

Expedited shipping involves shipping the Frameless door frames ahead of the actual doors. The production and delivery of the frames is typically achieved in 3-4 weeks. The doors follow several weeks later, which allows the contractor to rapidly advance the wall work on the project.

If you are interested in this new option, drop us an email.

Keep in mind that Insensation delivers pre-milled, pre-assembled and pre-hung frameless doors as our STANDARD delivery. This will save your contractor thousands of dollars and time on installation. If you choose Expedited Shipping, assembly is required on site, like all other door manufacturers, which is a disadvantage for you. It is best to plan ahead, get the best product on the market, which is our pre-hung series. Beware what some companies call pre-hung..they mean knock-down, which is NOT pre-hung. Insensation doors are fully assembled, individually packaged and placed in secure wooden crates for shipment.

Insensation has large, active interior doors projects across the USA and Canada.
