TICKR Floor Spring for Fabricator — Precision-Engineered for Glass Door Installations
TICKR manufactures TUV-SUD certified floor springs trusted by glass fabricators across India. Tested to 5,00,000 operational cycles, rated from 80kg to 200kg door capacity, and backed by a 7-year warranty — TICKR floor springs are the professional fabricator’s choice for frameless glass door installations in commercial, institutional and hospitality projects.
Why Fabricators Choose TICKR Floor Springs
For a glass fabricator, a floor spring is not a commodity item. It is a mechanical component that defines the operational life of every frameless glass door installation you deliver. A floor spring that fails at 18 months creates a warranty call-back, a damaged client relationship and an unplanned site visit. A TICKR floor spring tested to 5,00,000 cycles under TUV-SUD protocols gives the fabricator confidence that the installation will perform for the full warranty period — and well beyond.
TICKR’s 5-model range covers the door weight and width combinations that fabricators encounter across commercial projects: single-leaf office doors, heavy entrance doors, wide double-leaf entrances and hydraulic applications with thin glass. The technical data for each model — weight rating, maximum door width, glass thickness compatibility, closing force — is defined, tested and certified, not estimated.
TUV-SUD Certification — What It Means for Your Installations
TUV-SUD is Europe’s leading independent product testing and certification authority. For glass fabricators, TUV-SUD certification on a floor spring means:
- The stated weight rating (e.g., 90kg for TCH-7400) is independently tested — not a self-declared marketing number.
- The 5,00,000 cycle endurance claim is validated under standardised test conditions, not a theoretical calculation.
- The hydraulic closing mechanism performs consistently across the stated temperature and load range.
- Your installations can be specified into five-star hotel, premium commercial and institutional projects that require certified hardware.
When your client’s architect asks for the certification reference on the floor spring hardware, TICKR’s TUV-SUD status provides a verifiable answer — not a generic claim.
TICKR Floor Spring Model Selection Guide for Fabricators
Selecting the correct floor spring model is the most critical technical decision in a frameless glass door installation. Under-specifying the weight rating leads to mechanism overload, premature failure and warranty exposure. Over-specifying by two grades is unnecessary cost. TICKR’s 5-model range gives fabricators the precision to match the right model to each door specification.
| Model | Type | Door Capacity | Max Door Width | Glass Thickness | Warranty |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| TCH-7400 | Single Cylinder | 90 kg | 900 mm | Standard commercial | 7 years |
| TCH-8400 | Double Cylinder | 120 kg | 1,100 mm | Standard commercial | 7 years |
| TCH-9400 | Double Cylinder | 150 kg | 1,200 mm | Standard commercial | 7 years |
| TCH-10400 | Double Cylinder Heavy Duty | 200 kg | 1,500 mm | Standard commercial | 7 years |
| TCH-100 | Hydraulic | 80 kg | — | 10–12 mm glass | 7 years |
TCH-7400 — Single Cylinder (90kg / 900mm)
The TCH-7400 is the entry-specification floor spring for standard commercial glass doors. Rated to 90kg door weight and 900mm maximum door width, it is the correct model for single-leaf office entrance doors, meeting room glass doors, and retail partition entries in the light-to-medium commercial weight range. Single cylinder design provides reliable, calibrated closing force for doors that cycle frequently but at standard commercial weights.
TCH-8400 — Double Cylinder (120kg / 1,100mm)
The TCH-8400 steps up to 120kg capacity and 1,100mm door width — the specification tier for medium commercial glass doors: hotel room entrances, restaurant front doors, wider office lobby entries and glass partition doors in open-plan commercial fit-outs. The double cylinder mechanism provides additional closing force calibration precision at higher door weights.
TCH-9400 — Double Cylinder (150kg / 1,200mm)
At 150kg capacity and 1,200mm door width, the TCH-9400 covers the heavy commercial door tier: hotel lobby glass doors, institutional building entrances and wide commercial glass doors in retail and hospitality. This model is the appropriate specification for projects where TCH-8400 capacity is borderline or where the design intent requires a wider door panel.
TCH-10400 — Heavy Duty Double Cylinder (200kg / 1,500mm)
The TCH-10400 is TICKR’s heavy-duty floor spring rated to 200kg door weight and 1,500mm door width. It is the correct specification for large-format commercial glass doors: wide entrance doors at retail anchors, hotel grand lobby entries, premium commercial towers and institutional building main entrances where glass panel dimensions exceed the TCH-9400 capacity envelope. The heavy-duty double cylinder mechanism is engineered for high-cycle, high-load performance over the full 7-year warranty period.
TCH-100 — Hydraulic Floor Spring (80kg / 10-12mm Glass)
The TCH-100 is TICKR’s hydraulic floor spring, rated to 80kg door weight for 10-12mm glass thickness applications. The hydraulic mechanism provides controlled, smooth closing action — eliminating the abrupt mechanical closing of standard cylinder springs. Specified for applications where silent, controlled door operation is a requirement: premium hotel guest room entries, executive suite glass doors and high-specification interior glass partitions where closing noise is unacceptable.
Installation Considerations for Fabricators
Door weight calculation: Always calculate the actual glass panel weight before model selection. Use the actual glass dimensions and thickness with verified glass density (typically 2.5 kg per mm per m² for standard float glass). Never rely on approximate estimates — under-specifying is the primary cause of premature floor spring failure on fabrication sites.
Floor box mortise depth: Verify that the floor construction allows for the correct mortise depth required by the selected model. TICKR’s technical team provides floor box dimensions for each model on request. Confirm with the structural engineer on poured concrete floors before installation begins.
Pivot point alignment: Top pivot and bottom floor box must be precisely co-axial. Misalignment creates lateral load on the floor spring mechanism, accelerates wear and reduces operational life. TICKR provides pivot alignment guidance with each supply.
Closing speed calibration: All TICKR cylinder floor springs (TCH-7400 through TCH-10400) include adjustable closing speed and latching speed via the hydraulic control valve. Set closing speed to comply with local building regulations and the specific occupancy requirement. The TCH-100 hydraulic model provides additional closing-arc control.
Glass edge treatment: Floor spring installations at the base of frameless glass require precise glass edge preparation. Confirm with TICKR’s technical team for the correct glass edge cut specification and tolerance for each model.

Frequently Asked Questions — TICKR Floor Spring for Fabricators
Which TICKR floor spring model should I specify for a 90kg glass door?
Specify the TCH-7400 (Single Cylinder, 90kg capacity, max 900mm width) for doors at or below 90kg. For a 120kg door, move to the TCH-8400. Always specify at or above the actual door weight — never below. If the door weight is borderline between two models, specify the higher capacity model.
How many operational cycles are TICKR floor springs tested to?
All TICKR floor springs are tested to 5,00,000 operational cycles under TUV-SUD certified test protocols. This significantly exceeds typical commercial project lifecycle requirements, ensuring reliable performance throughout the 7-year warranty period.
What glass thickness is compatible with TICKR floor springs?
The TCH-100 hydraulic model is rated for 10-12mm glass. For the cylinder series (TCH-7400 through TCH-10400), confirm glass thickness compatibility with TICKR’s technical team at +91-9855225874 based on your specific panel dimensions.
Does TICKR provide installation technical documentation to fabricators?
Yes. TICKR provides fabricators with installation drawings, floor box dimension specifications, pivot alignment guidance and closing speed calibration instructions for all floor spring models. Contact sales@tickrindia.com to request technical documentation for any model.
What is the warranty on TICKR floor springs for fabricator-installed projects?
TICKR offers a 7-year warranty on all floor springs regardless of the installation channel. The warranty covers hydraulic mechanism failure, body defects and functional degradation under normal commercial use conditions.
