Family values fueling innovation

For over nine decades Teckentrup has blended tradition with advanced engineering to become an international market leader

Teckentrup GmbH( Teckentrup) is an international door manufacturer based in Germany, boasting an impressive portfolio of customers. Its doors have been installed in theaters, recording studios, and even the UK’ s MI5 and MI6 headquarters. Managing Director Christian Hanke outlines the company’ s expertise and offerings:“ Our products include garage doors, industrial doors, and hinge doors, particularly those with specialized functions such as fireproof hinge doors, smoke-proof hinge doors, and soundproof hinge doors. We can combine all these functions, making us one of the most specialized door manufacturers in the industry. Hinge doors with special functions account for between 70 and 80 percent of our business, while the remainder is made up of industrial and garage doors. We have been in this business for over 90 years as a family-run enterprise. We take great pride in the family-oriented culture that the company has nurtured throughout its history. We value maintaining close, open relationships not only with our employees but also with our customers.”

Christian reflects on the success of the company’ s recent merger with ABC:“ This was a significant step in developing the right portfolio for the UK market. In the UK, we handle many direct projects, which means we not only design and manufacture specialist doors but also install and maintain them. ABC is the part of the business responsible for fitting and maintenance, and we are very happy with the progress this operation has made over the past year.”
