Soft-close hinges and systems for steel doors
One soft-close system ensures that a door always closes in a controlled and gentle manner. With the aluminium sliding and pivot doors From Aluwdoors, this system is often used to make everyday use more convenient and safer.
Because the door is slowed down automatically, it can be closed in a pleasant manner. At the same time, a soft-close system increases comfort and safety in the home or office.
How does a soft-close system work?
You prevent the doors from slamming shut by choosing our soft-close system. With sliding doors, we always conceal this system within the tracks so that the aluminium profiles stay looking good for longer.
As soon as you slide the door closed, it is gently decelerated at the end of the track. This allows the door to disappear silently into the track. This ensures extra convenient operation and increases safety at home or in the office. After all, fingers are less likely to get trapped.
Benefits of a soft-close system
A soft-close system also contributes to the interior's aesthetic appeal. This system provides extra convenience in areas where doors are frequently opened and closed, such as offices or busy households. Doors with a soft-close system increase ease of use because they always close quietly and evenly.
Soft close for sliding doors
With our sliding doors, the soft-close system is integrated into the track, which is fixed to the wall or ceiling. The mechanism therefore remains out of sight while the doors run smoothly. Furthermore, the door closes softly and gradually, without you having to pay attention to it yourself.
A quiet soft-close system makes it ideal for living rooms, kitchens and offices. In spaces where people gather and where doors are used frequently, soft-close provides extra comfort and tranquility.
The door always closes gently and gradually. With sliding doors, you have the choice of a single or double soft-close system.

With pivot doors, the closing damping is often integrated into the pivot hinge. The hinge slows down the movement and allows the door to close in a controlled manner. Especially with heavy aluminium doors, this provides extra comfort and control: the door swings smoothly and closes neatly. In combination with an automatic closing position, the door always closes completely and gently, ensuring ease of use and a neat finish.

Can a soft-close system be retrofitted?
A soft-close system cannot be retrofitted. Our pivot doors come with soft-close fitted as standard. For our sliding doors, this is an option, but please bear such a system in mind when designing the door.
However, it is important to have it checked carefully in advance whether the door and dimensions are suitable. That way you can be certain that the system will work without any problems and that the door will close smoothly and safely.
