In contemporary architecture, design, comfort and technology are increasingly merging into an intelligent, cohesive system. Doors are becoming active components within connected buildings. As a result, there is a demand for solutions that elegantly integrate technical functionality without compromising the clean aesthetic of modern interior design. A prime example is the high-quality, concealed hinge system TECTUS Energy. This secures the door leaf of rebated and unrebated residential, heavy-duty and entrance doors while continuously transferring energy from the frame side.

Increasing smart-home
use in residential settings

TECTUS Energy offers numerous advantages, particularly in private homes, where smart-home solutions are becoming ever more popular. Doors are increasingly equipped with access control systems and electronic motor locks that enable automatic locking and unlocking. Intercoms also require an uninterrupted reliable supply of energy. And for an especially welcoming atmosphere, integrated LED lighting is being used more and more – whether as slim light strips in the door leaf or as an illuminated profile in the frame.

Security and comfort in commercial settings

Beyond private homes, the demand for electronic components is also growing, particularly in hotels, restaurants and prestigious public buildings. In these environments, doors are increasingly equipped with automated latching systems that manage access for guests, staff and authorised personnel.

Multimedia elements or status displays can also be integrated directly into the doors to aid orientation or convey information. Motion sensors that enhance security likewise require a dependable power supply.

Whether in residential or commercial buildings, it is crucial that all technical components are concealed within the door to preserve the visual design and representative appearance of the space.

TECTUS Energy: Concealed energy supply for any door

As a concealed hinge system, TECTUS Energy provides continuous energy transfer without impacting the aesthetic integrity of the overall room design. The precisely matched components – hinge, special connector and ribbon cable – ensure that power is transferred entirely concealed within the hinge system. A variety of connection technologies guarantees compatibility with all standard locks and fittings. The TECTUS TE 680 3D FD Energy model also facilitates the seamless integration of solid timber entrance doors into façades and options for advanced latching systems or other electronic features.

TECTUS Energy provides doors with a constant supply of energy for a dependable, elegant and completely unobtrusive solution.
