The DPHA Door Product of the Year Award was presented to
Frank Allart for its Precision Collection. The Precision Collection
is a standard customizable door, window, and cabinet hardware
offering, featuring eight different texture options including: Smooth,
Diamond Knurl, Diamond Mesh, Linear, Spiral/Starburst, Rotor,
Groove and Square Mesh. Showroom designers can mix and
match the textures, designs, sizes and finishes in this Collection to
create a personal combination with more than 50 million different
standard options.
Accurate Lock & Hardware was presented a DPHA honorable
mention in the door hardware category for its invisi-mount mounting
system that eliminates the need to mount hardware using screws.
Instead, the invisi-mount system utilizes rare-earth magnets for secure
and precise installation as an upgrade to exposed or concealed
fastener options – ideal for MDF and softer wood door species where
smaller wood screws easily strip and lose hold. Also, the invisi-mount
system makes installation simple and less critical as flush pulls literally
snap in place. Invisible fasteners are designers' preferred aesthetic.
Invisible is actually misleading, as there are literally no fasteners.
A user's hand never feels a screw head.
