In building technology, windows and awnings are indispensable for providing fresh air, light, and shade as well as for ensuring safety. When it comes to roof skylights, emergency exit windows, or smoke exhaust windows, these components must be easy to operate and ready for use at any time to ensure safety even in the event of a power failure or fire. HAHN gas springs and dampers meet these exacting requirements, and at the same time offer maximum convenience and easy to use. They are also suitable for many other applications around the home.
The easy solution
Our products are used wherever panels, windows, hatches, and doors must be precisely moved, closed, and opened. Our solutions are used in windows, tilt windows, canopies such as awnings and sun sails, wind and privacy screens, sliding doors, garage doors, drive-in barriers, manhole covers, and emergency exits. HAHN gas springs afford you numerous advantages – whether when opening hinged devices or when you need to easily open even heavy loads. Our entire product line stands for secure and comfortable operation as well as easy positioning. They are flexibly adaptable, individually adjustable, and weatherproof.

Applications
Roof windows
that are easy and safe to open
If you have the choice between roof windows and dormer windows, you often opt for the former. They let in more light and open up an unencumbered view to the outside world. The big challenge is, however, the larger and more light-flooded the window, the heavier it is. With HAHN gas springs, opening and closing even very heavy roof windows is effortless and convenient. Our gas springs allow the windows to be locked in intermediate positions, ensuring safe and flexible operation. For special applications, such as roof windows in greenhouses, we offer stainless steel springs with high-temperature seals and squeegees. These springs are designed to withstand high temperatures and the chemical cleaning agents commonly used in such environments.

Egress windows
for safety when it matters
In an emergency, egress windows must be able to be opened quickly and easily to serve as an escape route. Chimney sweeps and tradesmen can also utilize these windows for easier access to the roof. Thanks to our gas springs, the windows can be reliably and continuously locked in any position, providing reliable protection against accidental slamming.

Smoke exhaust windows and panels
for reliable fire protection
In the event of a fire, smoke exhaust windows and panels as well as fire protection windows perform a crucial role. Due to their ability to function as a chimney, they open automatically when smoke forms in order to direct the smoke outside via a draft. Our robust gas springs and dampers ensure that these windows and panels open reliably. Our gas springs are installed pre-tensioned or activated by a gas cartridge, which ensures an immediate response. The integrated damping prevents damage by restricting the panels and windows from opening too much, thus reducing material stress.

Retractable awnings
for light and durable sun protection
Retractable awnings are becoming increasingly popular means for sun protection. Since they are permanently installed, they require less space than sunshades, which often get blown into exit routes in bad weather. HAHN gas springs also allow for considerable weight savings in the construction, giving you more freedom for implementing creative design ideas. Our gas springs have a uniform force curve, as opposed to conventional tension springs, which have an ever-increasing force curve. This generally makes it much easier to extend and retract awnings. Our gas springs also extend the life of the awning material by softening traction forces and thereby increasing the longevity of the awning. Particularly noteworthy are our springs with low progression and very long strokes, such as the G8-28 and G10-40 models, which were specially developed for awnings.

Manhole covers
that are safe and easy to maintain
Our gas springs and dampers in V2A and V4A stainless steel are ideal for manhole covers in building technology. They allow for the safe and controlled opening and closing of heavy covers and prevent them from being slammed shut abruptly. Especially in damp environments, such as cellar shafts or water pipes, the rust-proof materials impress with their high corrosion resistance and durability.
