When designers consider doors, size, finish, or style are always initial thoughts. One of the basic building blocks of a door system, though, always gets overlooked: hardware. From hinges to latching, hardware makes up what a door will do, how it will feel, and how it will hold up over time.
At Importa, as the UAE’s premier producer of concealed doors and aluminum frames, we realize that hardware is more than a mere accessory—it is the key to performance and design accuracy.
What is Door Hardware?
Door hardware refers to functional parts of a door that cause it to open, close, and latch in place. The following are included:
Hinges – swinging devices that attach the door to the frame.
Locks & Handles – Assuring security, confidentiality, and convenient usability.
Closers & Stoppers – regulating how doors open and shut.
Magnetic Locks – Latest in soft, quiet closure.
Concealed Systems – invisible hardware, that maintains minimal design.
The Role of Hardware in Door Performance
Hardware is small in size, yet it has a colossal contribution in how a door works:
Durability – Quality hardware makes it run smoothly year after year, even under heavy daily use.
Aesthetics – Concealed hinges and magnetic catches are completely compatible with modern minimalistic interior design.
Comfort – Quiet soft-closing systems evoke a luxury ambiance.
Security – State-of-the-art locking systems secure privacy and guarantee protection.
Types of Door Hardware Importa Specializes In
- Concealed Hinges
Unlike traditional visible hinges, Importa uses 3D-adjustable concealed hinges that allow precise alignment. They are hidden when the door is closed, achieving a clean, seamless look
- Magnetic Locks
Importa integrates magnetic locks that allow silent, smooth closing. They replace the loud “click” of traditional locks with a soft-touch luxury feel—perfect for high-end residential and office projects.
- Pivot Systems
For oversized pivot doors, Importa offers reinforced pivot hinges engineered for stability and balance. Even large doors up to 3.5m operate effortlessly.
- Soundproof Seals
For privacy in bedrooms, offices, or meeting rooms, Importa doors can include acoustic seals that enhance comfort while maintaining sleek design.
- Handles & Custom Finishes
While minimalism often hides hardware, handles remain a focal point. Importa offers sleek handle options, or complete flush solutions where the handle is integrated into the door surface.
