This year at K/BIS, Sun Valley Bronze launched FOUR new hardware collections with a fifth collection in the works. Introduced at the show, for the first time, were the new Ridge Collection, The Hampton Collection, The Trellis Collection and The Deco Collection. Sun Valley Bronze shows a wide range of design concepts, from the elegant and subtle details of the Ridge Collection to the bold, transitional, and completely unique style of the Trellis Collection. Sun Valley Bronze also added a new hasp latch, the GL-400 gate latch for narrower stiles, and many new lever, knob and grip handle designs.
Also featured at this year’s show was the new and improved all stainless steel spring assist mechanism. This new system includes a stainless steel limiter and a Teflon coated stainless steel spring. The new spring assist is field-reversible, field-serviceable and is sure to make hardware installation much easier. Extremely durable, the new spring assist was cycle tested to 1.5 million cycles before the cycle tester broke!
Along with this new sping assist mechanism, Sun Valley Bronze developed a new system for dummy sets. All dummy sets are now field reversible and all set screws have been eliminated.
As always, Sun Valley Bronze continues to create, innovate, and expand our already extensive line of hardware and accessories. From technical advances, to design concepts, Sun Valley Bronze moves forward into the future with integrity, honesty, and enthusiasm.
We would like to send a special thanks to all who helped with this year’s show, and to all who attended.
