Biloba EVO and Biloba Unica

New hinges which stand out for their clean and elegant design.

Just as all the products branded Colcom, also Biloba EVO and Biloba UNICA underwent strict trials, which guarantee good performances and duration, and stand out for their clean and elegant design combined with functionality and easy assembly. Indeed, both hinges avoid the ground wreckage required by using a traditional door-closer, since the closing function is included into the hinge itself.

Biloba Evo, the new hinge with integrated door closer, for doors with stop, both internal and external. It is the first hinge worldwide with an automatic, smooth and adjustable closing mechanism (up to 180°).

Its particularly thin and streamlined shape, was conceived to allow the closing automatism to work vertically, so the element that clamps the glass can be thin and reduced in its dimensions. Thanks to this mechanism, the doors may keep open.

Biloba Evo is equipped with a shock absorber and an over-pressure valve that avoid glass breaking in accidental shoving scenarios.

The peculiar shape of the adjustment nozzles, and the unique hydraulic system itself, are covered by international patents and allow perfectly controlled movements even in very small environmental spaces.

The Evo series was recently implemented with two applications for inner doors: the first with wall fixation – both glass/glass and wall/glass – the second with a plate for ground fixation, needed when you want to relieve the door’s weight to the floor – available only in the wall/glass version. Both are free hinges, without closing automatism and windbreaker, and both must be matched with a standard Biloba Evo force 3.

UNICA is the innovative hydraulic hinge that enriches the Biloba series. Conceived for installation on external doors its essential shape and design make it ideal for installation in any type of setting.

It is extremely quick and easy to install on the floor and on pivot doors as well.

Biloba UNICA does not require the installation of floor or overhead devices, yet it maintains the advantages of the closing system. Biloba UNICA can be combined with all patch fittings and top hinges of the Maxima series.

Biloba Unica Series was implemented too, by increasing the inner doors’ version. Moreover, the entire Unica range can be matched with squared ground fixation plates, with elegant shape and dimension, and whose colors can be customized – feature which allows minimal and pleasing installations.
