Primary materials

VIGHI Counterframes are made from galvanised electrowelded sheets with a thickness of 8/10 and 10/10 (jambs). The type and quality of sheets used make the panels particularly robust.

Stability and safety

The clever technical features incorporated into VIGHI Counterframes make them extremely stable, safe (no cracks form in the walls) and quick to install. Additionally, all panels for internal doors and shutters are self-supporting and do not need an architrave.

With/without lower crosspiece

For new construction areas VIGHI produces suitable counterframes with a lower crosspiece. The crosspiece is placed on the rough floor and then incorporated into the finished floor, speeding up assembly and ensuring the counterframe always remains square.
On existing floors, counterframes without a lower crosspiece are used. To ensure maximum stability in this case, the frames are fixed to the floor with screws and anchors.

Quiet operation

The slider system – manual or electronic – of every VIGHI Counterframe is distinguished by extremely quiet operation.

Assembly and operation

VIGHI Counterframes are supplied ready for use or only needing quick assembly or fitting of certain components (slider guide, uprights, lower crosspiece). They are easy to install on any kind of site, whether into new buildings or those under restoration.
Assembly sheets available from the download area.
