The Portman package has optional soft self-closing mechanism "Klose". This unique patented system allows the door to be held in place within the wall cavity. To release, simply push the door leaf gently and the door self-closes silently using the controlled mechanism.
The Klose mechanism is available with the Portman standard timber door kits.
Being able to have the door slide open and closed (and lock) at the push of a button is exceptionally user friendly and offers huge potential benefits, especially when considering inclusive design and easy access. The Portman powered unit is concealed at the head of the door, is low voltage and has been tested to 30,000 cycles.
