Large and mobile glass sliding wall systems are ideal for designing high-quality shop and office spaces. The MSW all-glass systems fit perfectly into modern spatial and store designs. The clear design emphasises the architecture in modern buildings with a high quality of environment. GEZE developed the MSW Comfort locking mechanism for the simple, safe assembly and disassembly of shop and building fronts.

Easy-to-operate and easy on the body

The MSW Comfort is an automatic floor locking device which is activated simply by moving the sliding panels, and safely locks to and unlocks from the floor. Operation is extremely simple and doesn’t need much effort. Thanks to integration into the bottom profile, no operating elements can be seen when the system fronts are closed. The new locking concept from GEZE is characterised by a clear and consistent design. In linear and slightly segmented shop fronts, no locking elements are visible on the front of the sliding wall. This also reduces the risk of the locking mechanism being tampered with from outside and of stacked panels damaging blinds.
