We've recently seen an increase in requests for surface door contacts in black.  Whether this is as result of changes in architects' fashion tastes, or simply more black doors and frames being installed, we're not sure.

 

We've responded to this by offering any of our range in black, subject to an initial set up cost.  If however, the contact is already on the list below (as being made previously for someone else), then there is no such charge:

Very good idea.

IMO a dark grey would be more useful.

Seeing a hell of a lot more aluminium bi-fold doors in dark grey.

 

Either way black will look a lot better than white or brown on dark grey.

Unique I'd imagine. Nice one.

 

@ 'Spike' - Will be digging deep into that samples box tomorrow, at last, will report back!

Technically speaking, we can manufacture contacts (plastic made parts such as ABS, polystyrene etc) in any colour, as long as you provide us with the Pantone colour code, but there would be that initial set up cost.

No worries!  Look forward to hearing back from you - as I said, negative feedback also welcome so we can improve products!

OK

I would suspect it would be easier to do a run of blk cases in std & jb type & sell empty cases than produce assembled stock ?

 

I'd also make the fussy buggers buy them as 10 of 'em in a bag, economy of scales ect...

that's how the brown covers for shock's come from risco - just swap out the guts

I completely agree

agree with the just supply casings.........

 

agree that grey/silver is more of a common issue.

So we should supply packs of 10 housings, and you would use the innards from another one of our 'white' contacts?  The thing is, you'd then also need the magnet side in, plus any spacers and the base for the PCB as this is slightly visible....

 

Surely it would be easier to just buy as many grey / silver products as you need?
