AWISA was great opportunity for Lincoln Sentry to show off some of its innovative kitchen hardware and storage solutions, in particular Blumotion, Tandembox and Orga-line by Blum, as well as the full range of low voltage decorative HERA lighting suitable for kitchens, furniture or shop-fitting applications.

The stand displayed three fully functional kitchens, displaying the latest in storage solutions and kitchen accessories. Wire-ware storage solutions by Vauth-Sagel and the various drawer inserts added to the many possibilities that cabinet makers today can offer their customers in providing ultimate storage functionality.

In addition to the functional kitchens, Lincoln Sentry set up their own workshop, where customers could come up, feel, touch and play with some of the latest innovative tools.

“The Workshop area proved a fantastic success with visitors, offering interactive demonstrations of the latest innovative construction products by our technical staff” explained National Marketing Manager, Leo Mangini, “nothing beats hands-on demonstrations and our AWISA workshop gave us the opportunity to showoff some of the solutions we offer the trade”, Leo added. Innovative products from 3M, Zipbolt , Coopers Tools, Dynabrade, Enlock, Fallshaw, Novaryt, Ryobi, Blum and Dow Corning made sure that there was always something to do at the Lincoln Sentry AWISA stand.

One of the most popular products displayed at the Lincoln Sentry stand was the new Corner Drawer solution. The Blum hardware has been the talking point of the industry as an alternate, but innovative use of any kitchen corner space.

To coincide with the release, Lincoln Sentry now offers Corner Drawer Carcasses to suit 900, 950 or 1000mm. Delivered flat-packed the corner drawer is a simple addition for any cabinetmaker to include in their design.

In conjunction with the hardware that offers innovative storage solutions, Dynamic Space® was released to visitors of the AWISA exhibition. Dynamic Space® is the new kitchen standard when designing a functional kitchen. The study offers designers better ergonomics, storage solutions and consideration for left and right-handed workflow kitchens.

Overall, the AWISA stand provided the opportunity for visitors to get better acquainted with Lincoln Sentry and the vast product range it has to offer.

The ultimate holiday destination nestled in the heart of the Whitsunday Sun, 03 Oct 2004 12:46:48 GMT http://www.lincolnsentry.com.au/News.aspx?id=23 The Australian invention has been praised for its innovative yet simple design that delivers clear user benefits. ZIPBOLT’s full program of connectors is rapidly being adapted by a variety of industries.

“Industries that see the ZIPBOLT™ product range, are immediately coming up to us with new suggestions of application”, said Lincoln Sentry, Technical Representative Richard Parker.

“A variety of industries need some type of connector product in a variety of applications and ZIPBOLT™ is proving to be the ideal solution for many of them”, he adds.

“The Staircase market in the United States commented how they had been waiting 150 year for Zipbolt™ to solve the problem of connecting timber balustrades and posts”, Richard explains.

The ZIPBOLT product, designed by Adelaide inventor Milan Pilja, was originally designed for the Kitchen benchtop industry.

“It was a matter of coming up with a more common sense solution to the back breaking method of connecting benchtops”, Milan explains

From there Lincoln Sentry, in partnership with Milan, saw the potential and developed the product further responding to feedback that was received from both Australia and overseas markets. The result so far is a full range of connectors for a variety of applications and industries.

“We are really encouraged by the response we are receiving from the market and are actively seeking new market opportunities that can see the user benefits, time saving and labour cost saving features, especially suited to the production line and on-site installation market”, says Leo Mangini, Lincoln Sentry National Marketing Manager.

The ZIPBOLT™ connector range is available in a variety of versions and sizes for different applications and markets.

It is by far the fasters and most efficient solution to joining substrates in seconds!

The innovative inward facing gear design allows the user to tension the bolt with a hand-held hex drive screwdriver or a power drill in seconds, eliminating the difficult handling and time consuming problems associated with using a hand spanner / wrench. The ZIPTOOL™ rotates the gear that tensions the bolt on the shaft and joins the material.

Traditional methods of joining substrates for work /counter tops or stair railings until now have been time consuming and impractical, compromising on join strength and quality. The ZIPBOLT™ design allows better dexterity when handling the work and less time and labour cost required. The integrated locator hole allows the ZIPBOLT™ Driver to easily locate into the gear and tension the ZIPBOLT™ tightly, easily producing a fast and strong join.

The connectors are suitable for straight or angle fixing to a variety of substrates. When used with dowels and liquid adhesives, ZIPBOLT™ does not require external clamps to hold the work together whilst the glue sets. Assembly can be completed at once, rather than assembled in parts over several days whilst the adhesive bonds, greatly increasing production efficiency.

The ZIPBOLT™ connector is ideal for both permanent fixing for furniture or cabinetmaking constructions or for short term assembly and disassembly, such as shopfitting and exhibition construction.

Zipbolt so far is marketed and sold in Australia, U.S.A., United Kingdom, New Zealand, Holland, Belgium, Germany, Canada, South Africa and Poland.
