Soft closing systems and accessories for sliding doors

Gentle and silent: Häfele Smuso leads the way

Smuso, for the first time, is available for furniture sliding doors as well as the architecture sliding doors. Thanks to the modular soft closing system that Smuso involves, with the Smuso, all types of sliding doors are closed gently, smoothly and silently, and pulled into the end position securely. The Smuso can be immediately installed or retrofitted and it also has an extremely aesthetic variant.

The advantages Smuso brings:

  • It brings less noise, extremely ideal for bedroom, hotel, patient room, conference room and office, where concentration and quiet are required.
  • Avoid accidents like fingers being trapped in doors, which is safe for children.
  • Convenience, self and soft closing system provides convenience which means less force is required to close the doors.
  • Material-friendly, Smuso prevents hard collisions between the doors and the frames so the doors can be used for many years.

3 different damping systems in Smuso:

Smuso SD 

Smuso SD

SD means small doors. This mechanism is especially designed for small size furniture door which weights 15–30kg.

 Smuso CD

Smuso CD

CD stands for cabinet doors. This reliable standard class adapts for medium-size furniture door leaf weights 25–80kg.

 Smuso AD

Smuso AD

AD stands for architecture doors. This premium class is for sliding doors opening in buildings and door leaf weights 35–80kg.

The Smuso adopts the most advanced technology of air friction soft closing system. It avoids the risk of oil leaking problems of the oil damper, and also it surpasses the normal air damper on aspects of soft closing effects and stroke.

The comparisons between the air damper, oil damper and air friction damper:
  Air damper Oil damper Air friction damper
Inter media Air Liquid, oil Air
Rebound Strong No Weak
Effect  Smooth
Air compressed first—— loss of damping ways
Strong soft closing effect, no loss of damping ways Smooth
no loss of damping ways
