Friction Stay Hinge Restricted Non Handed Top Hung 13mm (1 Pair)

Introducing the Nico Standard Restrictor Friction Hinge, a cutting-edge solution for window safety and functionality. This precision-engineered hinge features an integral restrictor mechanism that automatically engages upon opening, limiting the initial vent to prevent accidental falls while still allowing for a manual override for full opening when necessary. Designed with child safety in mind, the restrictor requires a two-handed action to release, ensuring peace of mind for parents and guardians.

Crafted from high-quality stainless steel, this hinge boasts a riveted nose cap, 3-stage counterbored rivet holes, glass-reinforced nylon slides, and a brass friction-adjustment screw. These materials and design elements contribute to its long-term durability, corrosion resistance, and smooth, adjustable operation.

The Nico Standard Restrictor Friction Hinge is technically certified and rigorously tested, meeting a comprehensive range of British and European window safety and performance standards. It complies with BS EN 14351 for load-bearing capacity of safety devices and BS 6375-2:2009 for operational and strength characteristics. The hinge has undergone extensive cycle testing under BS EN 6375-2 and weather testing through BS EN 6375-1, ensuring reliability in various conditions. Additionally, it contributes to compliance with BS 8213-1:2004 for safe cleaning clearance when fully open, depending on size and profile.

Security is paramount, and this hinge, when paired with Nico Xtra Bolts, meets the standards set by PAS 24:2016. Its Secured by Design approval further underscores its status as a police-endorsed safety component.
