The Phu Quoc Island Resort in Vietnam refitted all of their luxury villa doors with Waterson rust proof door hinges due to costly and unsightly rust that had plagued their previous concealed door closers. The 1000+ room changeover sadly cost the 6-star resort as much as $1.5M in lost revenue due to a lengthy period of unbookable rooms.
The resort had overlooked the fact that the alluring salty coastal sea breeze loved by their luxury-seeking guests could cause significant rust and self-closing function problems. They originally chose concealed hinges for their aesthetic appeal, however, salty water carried by the wind would collect on the exposed mechanisms, causing rust and frequent mechanical problems that led to expensive replacement projects.
Rust Proof Hinges To The Rescue
The resort contacted Waterson to help them solve their costly maintenance problem. The architect-in-charge of their renovation project chose Waterson due to our reputation for providing reliable mechanical-only self-closing function, stainless steel rust-resistant hinges, and easy installation. Despite the project’s substantial size, the company delivered an effective solution in record time. The product is made of solid material with a rust-proof finish and flush fit design, making it easy to install using included screws. Waterson offers their product at a perfect price point, guaranteeing its hold and fit. The company’s industry-leading service and support include detailed product information and assistance to ensure customer satisfaction.
