HAWA Concepta FAQ & INFO

Why Choose Hawa Concepta?

1. Multifunctional Room Design

In modern architecture, flexibility is key. Hawa Concepta systems allow a single room to serve multiple purposes. Hide a full kitchenette behind flush doors in a studio apartment, or conceal a workspace in a bedroom. When the doors are open, they slide completely into the parking pocket, ensuring full access and zero obstruction.

2. Swiss Precision & "Push-to-Open" Technology

Experience the smooth, silent operation that defines Hawa sliding solutions. The new Hawa Concepta III introduces ergonomic movement support, allowing doors to be opened and parked with a gentle tap. Options include:

  • Soft Closing: Integrated damping for quiet, controlled movement.
  • Push-to-Open: Handle-free designs for a seamless, minimalist aesthetic.
  • Scissor Technology: Unique maintenance-free scissor mechanisms ensure doors never jam, even with heavy use.

3. Seamless Aesthetics (No Floor Tracks)

Achieve a clean, unbroken floor plan. Hawa Concepta systems are designed to operate without a bottom guide channel (floor track) in the visible area, allowing for continuous flooring material from the room into the cabinet or recess.
