USA 'ANGLE-SHOE' MANUFACTURERS

'ANGLE-SHOE' MANUFACTURERS IN THE USA'
This can now be considered 'Trumpian' Fake News

'ANGLE-SHOE' pivots will NEVER be made in the USA.  A manufacturer has show a keen interest in the ever growing range of products and negotiations are under way to service that part of the global market.  For architectural hardware distributors please email Howard Styles at hstyles@bigpond.net.au - for contact details.





THE PFS35 LOW COST PIVOT SETS

Angle-Shoe' pivots were officially launched at DesignBuild Melbourne in 2004.
Thousands of pivots sets have now been sold to a bunch of very happy customers.
The pivots go to places like CuraƧao, Suriname, Holland, and even New Zealand.
Some also go to the UK and USA.

Howard Styles the designer and maker of Angle-Shoes makes the pivots in Canberra.
Unlike Washington DC, Canberra is not only the nations capitol but is also:
'The Epicentre of pivot making in Australia'.

The pivots are constantly morphing into new products to facilitate economical details.

The firmness of these new pivots holds these louvres at any angle.
I suspect they could generate electricity during days of high wind.
