Nico 12 Inch Egress Friction Hinge with Integrated Restrictor - Left Hand - Sold in Pairs

SOLD AND PRICED PER PAIR

The Nico Restricted Egress Friction Hinge combines the features of standard restrictor and egress only hinges. It provides protection against falling through windows in an initial restricted mode, and then offers a quick escape route in the event of a fire in the egress position. Supplied in matched pairs, the restricted egress hinge is fitted to the bottom of the sash with a matched unrestricted egress hinge fitted to the top. The single restrictor button is integral to the hinge and is designed to be less tempting to children, and the hinge automatically resets after closure from the egress position.

EACH PAIR OF HINGES HAS ONE RESTRICTED AND ONE NON RESTRICTED FOR EASE OF USE
