Hotel bed design is evolving with a stronger focus on experience and efficiency. Designers are rethinking how form and function work together in limited spaces while maintaining a sense of luxury. Every choice affects how guests perceive comfort and quality.

When you’re working through the details of a new product design, it’s easy to think, “A hinge is a hinge.” But if you’ve ever seen a lid sag, a door bind, or an access panel fail under load, you know hinge selection can make or break a design.

The temptation to save a few dollars with a lighter, cheaper hinge is real, especially when budgets are tight. Yet choosing the wrong hinge can lead to damaged equipment, unsafe operation, and costly redesigns down the line. 

At Weber Knapp, sales and marketing rely on relationships, clear communication, and an understanding of what customers need to succeed.

The problem with standing desks isn’t the desks. It’s how people use them.

When it comes to high-end kitchen appliance design, great performance is as important on the outside as it is on the inside.

When most people hear “ergonomics,” they picture office workers at desks. But ergonomics – designing or modifying the working environment for the worker’s health and comfort – is just as important in the construction industry.

Most restaurant injuries don’t come from knives or open flames – they come from something as ordinary as a countertop. Lifting a heavy bar pass-through dozens of times during a shift strains backs, spills drinks, and leaves staff scrambling to recover.

Some projects start as neat sketches. Others take shape through trial, error, and plenty of back-and-forth. At Weber Knapp, guiding those ideas into finished products requires both patience and creativity – two qualities that define Jeremy Redlecki’s career.

When most people think of Weber Knapp, one thing might come to mind: hinges. And it makes sense. For decades, the company has been a trusted source of precision-engineered motion control solutions, especially heavy-duty and counterbalance hinges. But here’s the thing – hinges are used in such a wide variety of applications.  

You’re planning a new bar – or giving your current space an upgrade. The goal is to create a space that feels stylish and original, where customers enjoy the atmosphere as much as their drinks.

Motion control solutions can bring strength and versatility to bar and restaurant design, supporting both modern and traditional concepts.
