How do you recognise a quality stove? By the firebox door

The search for the ideal stove goes beyond design and heat output. Find out why careful consideration of the firebox door is crucial and how it not only makes operation easier, but also increases safety when handling the hot stove.

People who buy a stove often have fairly precise ideas about its design and heat output. Technical functions that make it easier to fire and load the stove are usually not a priority. However, it would be worth taking a closer look during the purchasing process! A user-friendly firebox door, for example, is simply more enjoyable and provides added safety in daily use of the hot stove.

In general, it's worth taking a closer look at the firebox door when buying a stove. You can recognise the quality of a stove by looking at it. Our tip: Open and close the firebox door several times at the point of sale:

Does it open easily and close again completely? Does it even lock automatically?
Does the hinge run smoothly or does it squeak?
Listen for a pleasant closing noise. You will hear it many times at home.
How does the handle feel in your hand?
Does the door feel solid, compact, tight and heavy? Or is it made of thin steel plates?
Are all the seals on the inside of the door cleanly finished?

The Self-Locking-System© (SLS©) developed by the Attika designers in Switzerland is a special convenience. It allows the firebox door to be opened very easily in an ergonomic movement sequence with a gentle pull. When the firebox door is released again, it automatically and quietly falls into the lock and engages. This is even more convenient than a classic door lock and never leaves you standing next to the open firebox door for an unnecessarily long time.

Have the Self-Locking-System© demonstrated live at your local Attika dealer.
