Locks securely
Unlike visible systems, the SIEGENIA DRIVE axxent HSA smart is fully integrated into the top profile of the door. The motor remains virtually invisible to preserve the clean design of modern lift-and-slide doors.
This technology is ideal for large glazed openings, contemporary houses, high-end chalets, prestigious residences as well as commercial buildings.
