Vertical sliding doors
Assunta 75
In the distant past, some interior builders were ‘working’ on vertical sliding doors. One day, we were asked whether we could not replace the noisy tube motor used at the time with a quieter motor and then also with a full-fledged control. By carrying out this project, we got the raid to market this solution more widely as a kit for interior and kitchen builders. Assunta 75 (lifting force of up to 75 kg) thus saw the light of day in 2006.
Assunta 40
The heavy industrial motor was replaced by two separate DC - motors that make the system independent of cabinet width. Protection was now provided by tilting motors that immediately detect a ‘slackening’ of the pull-up belts. This new version was named Assunta 40 in 2018.
Assunta Recta
When it was pointed out that the door panels still had to be chamfered at the top and bottom, the challenge came to do away with this. By using ‘frames’ where all components can be placed on the panel in one move, Assunta (Recta) really is an efficient and quick-to-install product that now completely replaces Assunta 40.

Autodidact
In 1984, I graduated as an industrial engineer in electro-mechanics. Later, I then went on to study electronics (B1), learned to build websites (HTML, CSS, Java) and immersed myself in developing software for microprocessors. In recent years, I gained a lot of experience designing and drawing in 3D (Solid Works). In between, I also enjoyed making Photoshop, Indesign, Premiere Pro and some other packages my own.
Wifi, BlueTooth, App and AI
And we continue ... . For example, Vanbot (Frank Verdonck) has developed a new universal DC - controller. Wifi and BlueTooth are provided as standard. Control with app on smartphone and/or integration into a wifi network are also on the ‘To Do List’. It's all not for tomorrow yet but it's coming....
