The Orion Halo range of door hardware is designed to offer a sophisticated and practical solution for both new installations and retrofitting projects. Its primary function is to provide a secure and aesthetically pleasing means of operating doors, with various configurations to suit different needs, including dummy, passage, and privacy functions. The distinctive large rose design is a key feature, specifically engineered to cover existing 54mm holes in doors, making it an ideal choice for renovations where older hardware is being replaced. This thoughtful design ensures a clean, contemporary look without the need for extensive door modifications, seamlessly integrating with the original door structure.
The Halo range is available in several functional variations to cater to diverse requirements within a building. The "Dummy Set" is designed for doors that do not require a latching mechanism, such as closet doors or decorative panels. It includes a single lever handle and a dummy mount, providing the appearance of a functional handle without the internal workings of a latch. This is perfect for achieving a consistent aesthetic throughout a space where not all doors require full operational hardware.
For doors that need to latch but not lock, the "Passage Set" is the appropriate choice. This set typically includes two lever handles and a tubular latch. The standard passage set is designed for a 60mm backset, which refers to the distance from the edge of the door to the center of the bore hole. An alternative "Passage Set - 70mm Backset" is also available, offering flexibility for different door preparations. These sets are ideal for interior doors such as hallways, living rooms, or bedrooms where privacy is not a primary concern but a secure close is desired.
The "Privacy Set - Integrated" is specifically designed for areas where privacy is essential, such as bathrooms and bedrooms. This set includes two lever handles and an integrated tubular privacy latch. The privacy function allows the door to be locked from the inside, typically with a push-button or turn-snib mechanism, and often includes an emergency release on the exterior side for safety. Similar to the passage sets, a "Privacy Set - Integrated - 70mm Backset" is also offered to accommodate varying door specifications. The integrated design means that the locking mechanism is self-contained within the handle and rose assembly, contributing to the clean and minimalist aesthetic of the Halo range.
The installation process for the Halo range is designed to be straightforward, particularly for the passage set, which is often used as a reference for general installation. The large rose, with its 67mm diameter, is a crucial element for retrofitting, as it effectively conceals existing 54mm drill-out holes. This eliminates the need for patching or repainting, saving time and effort during renovations. The hardware is constructed from solid aluminium, ensuring durability and a premium feel. It is designed to accommodate door thicknesses ranging from 32mm to 55mm. For doors that fall outside this range, custom spindles and alternative fixings may be required, which can be sourced separately. It is important to note that the Halo range is intended for internal use only and is not suitable for external applications where exposure to the elements might compromise its finish or functionality.
The aesthetic appeal of the Halo range is further enhanced by its available finishes. The hardware is stocked in three distinct options: Brushed Nickel (BN), Matt Black (BLK), and Graphite Nickel (GN). These finishes are carefully selected to complement a wide range of interior design styles, from modern minimalist to more traditional decors. Brushed Nickel offers a classic, understated elegance with its subtle sheen, while Matt Black provides a bold, contemporary statement. Graphite Nickel offers a sophisticated, darker metallic look that can add depth and character to a door. These finish options allow users to customize the look of their doors to match their personal style and the overall design scheme of their space.
Maintaining the pristine appearance and functionality of the Halo door hardware is a simple process, ensuring its longevity and continued aesthetic appeal. Regular cleaning is recommended to prevent the build-up of dust, grime, and other environmental contaminants that can affect the finish and potentially lead to corrosion. The manufacturer suggests cleaning the surface of the hardware periodically with a warm, soapy, lightly dampened cloth. This gentle approach helps to remove any accumulated residue without damaging the finish. After cleaning, it is crucial to thoroughly dry the hardware with a clean, soft cloth to prevent water spots or streaks. A minimum of monthly cleaning is recommended for both finish preservation and general hygiene, especially in high-traffic areas where handles are frequently touched.
It is important to be mindful of the environmental factors that can impact the hardware's finish. Atmospheric conditions, salt deposits, acids, caustic agents, cement, or dust from construction sites can all contribute to discolouration or damage to the surface. Therefore, it is advisable to protect the hardware from such exposures, particularly during construction or renovation phases. When cleaning, specific precautions should be taken to avoid using harsh or abrasive products. Metal polishes, abrasive cleaners, scourers, or rough cloths can scratch or otherwise damage the hardware's finish, compromising its appearance and protective layer. Furthermore, the hardware should never be sprayed directly with cleaning agents or immersed in liquid, as this could damage internal mechanisms or lead to corrosion in areas not designed for direct liquid exposure. Adhering to these simple care and maintenance guidelines will help ensure that the Orion Halo door hardware remains beautiful and functional for many years to come, preserving its elegant design and robust performance.
