Roto News
Product Feature

Roto North America is excited to showcase our X-DRIVE Casement Hardware. 

Upon opening the window, you will notice the unique and innovative lockout crank handle. The lockout feature allows the handle to remain in a stable, open position while opening and closing the window. Next, you will notice the color-matching OP08 dual arm operator arms, 2-bar hinge arms, and lock bar, all powdercoat painted to provide aesthetically-pleasing hardware and robust performance. The LB08 lock bar series is complete with pre-installed guide housings and adjustable lock pins.
 
Of special note is the innovative corner drive system, which easily connects to, and compliments the standard lock bar series. The corner drive system can be utilized by window fabricators for enhanced marketing and performance benefits, without the need to alter the fabrication of profile material. The entire lock system is driven by the contemporary lock handle, which is nicely-balanced with levers on both sides of the housing.
