ASSA Fix 160/2 in left-hand version
This is an ASSA Fix 160/2 with 252 mm long brake box, 20 mm wide rectangular profile and detachable frame bracket.
To ensure that it works properly immediately, check that your existing brake has:
252 mm long brake box
20 mm wide rectangular profile
Detachable frame bracket
Left-handed design
So, how to check the left side: Hold the brake lever with the opening facing upwards, the short side facing you and the locking lever away from you. On this model, the brake pin should be on the left side.
Left or right is not determined by the side of the door hinge.
Compare with the old brake before ordering. If the brake has a fixed frame mount, it could instead be ASSA Fix 150. If the brake box has a 16 mm wide T-shaped profile and is 257 mm long, it normally belongs to the ASSA 750 or 760 series.

Quick check before ordering
Choose this ASSA Fix 160/2 left when the following applies to your existing brake:
The brake box is 252 mm long
The profile is 20 mm wide and rectangular
The armrest is adjustable
The brake lever is on the left side
The old brake lacks a child-protecting locking function
The length of the brake lever is not enough by itself to identify the correct product. Also check the profile, the bracket mount and the left hand grip.
1. Check the profile
The ASSA Fix 160 has a 20 mm wide rectangular brake caliper. Measure over the widest part of the profile.
If you have a 16 mm wide T-shaped profile or a 22 mm wide special profile, it is a different brake family.
2. Check the mounting bracket
ASSA Fix 160 is said to have a detachable frame bracket. This allows the brake arm to be disconnected when the door or window needs to be opened further.
ASSA Fix 150: fixed frame attachment
ASSA Fix 160: detachable frame bracket
The mounting bracket is purchased separately. The series normally uses the ASSA 5550T or ASSA 5580.
3. Measure the length of the brake drum
Measure the straight brake bracket from side to side. Do not count the lower bracket, the protruding pin or the arm.
This model should have a 252 mm long brake box.
The long locking sleeve is cut by the customer during assembly. When replacing, use the old locking sleeve as a reference.
4. Check the left execution
Hold the brake box with the opening facing upwards and the short side towards you. The long axle should point away from you.
Left: the brake pin is located on the left side
Right: the brake pin is located on the right side
On this product, the brake lever should be on the left side.
Left or right has nothing to do with which side the door hinge is attached to.

This is how ASSA Fix 160 works
The brake is operated using the shuttle’s usual handle. When the handle is in the closed position, the brake holds the door or window in place with friction in the selected ventilation mode.
When the handle is moved to the open position, the arch is allowed to move freely. The friction during opening increases as the opening angle becomes larger. In case of severe overload, the brake can slip to reduce the load on the arch and hinge.
The difference between the 252 and 257 mm brake chamber
A difference of five millimeters can mean that it is a completely different brake family.

ASSA 750/2 or 760/2: 257 mm brake caliper and 16 mm wide T-shaped Euronot profile
Therefore, do not choose the model whose length is closest. Always check both the exact length of the brake caliper and the width and shape of the profile.
This product is a common one ASSA Fix 160 without child safety locking function.
The lower beam is cut by the customer during assembly
The long connecting rod, also called the transfer bar or pin, is supplied to be able to be adjusted to the dimensions of the door or window.
When replacing the brake, use the old brake caliper as a reference and cut the new one to the same length.
First check that the following is true:
ASSA Fix 160/2
252 mm brake caliper
20 mm rectangular profile
Detachable frame bracket
Left-handed design
Double-check before cutting
Only cut the long lower part of the brake cable. Do not cut the brake cable itself. Make sure the correct product has been ordered before cutting the lower part of the cable.
Does the ASSA Fix 160/2 fit my window or my patio door?
ASSA Fix 160/2 is normally used for beam widths from 401 to 550 mm. The model can be used in windows, smaller window doors and other constructions with a compatible ASSA bracket.
The manufacturer of the door or window is not sufficient to guarantee compatibility. Check the existing brake's design, dimensions, and performance first.
Assembly and replacement
When replacing an identical brake, the old brake is used as a reference. The brake caliper is unscrewed, the brake arm is disconnected from the frame mount and the old brake is removed.
Cut the new handle to the same length as the old one and install the new brake in the corresponding position. After installation, check that the handle activates the brake and that the door or window moves freely when the handle is in the open position.
Always follow the ASSA installation instructions. If you are unsure about the installation or if the old brake is missing, the work should be carried out by a professional.
Do you need help identifying the brake?
Send clear photos of the entire brake, the short side of the profile, the frame mount, the length of the brake caliper, and the mechanism where the left or right pin is visible.

Is this a left- or right-hand model?
This is a left-hand model. Hold the brake lever with the opening facing upwards, the short side towards you, and the left armrest away from you. The brake lever should then be on the left side.
Does the door hinge determine whether I need left or right?
No. Left or right is determined by the position of the brake pin inside the brake box, not by which side the door hinges are on.

How long is the lock spindle upon delivery?
The total delivery length of the lower arm is 457 mm including the pin. The customer cuts the arm to the correct length during assembly.
Should the lock spindle be cut?
Yes. When replacing, use the old brake caliper as a reference and cut the new one to the same length. Make sure the model, profile, bracket attachment, length, and left-hand design match before cutting.

Can I choose the model closest in length?
No. Always choose the exact length of the brake track and also check the profile width and shape. A difference of five millimeters can mean that it is a completely different brake series.

No. The ASSA Fix 160/2 has a 252 mm long and 20 mm wide rectangular brake caliper. The ASSA 750/2 and 760/2 have a 257 mm long and 16 mm wide T-shaped Euronot profile.
Can this replace the ASSA 770?
No. ASSA Fix 160 has a 20 mm wide rectangular profile, while ASSA 770 has a 22 mm wide special profile with a different design and attachment.
Can I choose the brake according to the door manufacturer?
No, not just that. The same manufacturer may have used several different brake systems. Always check the profile, mounting bracket, length, and left or right of the old brake.
Can the old hinge be reused?
A completely intact and comfortable armrest mount can often be reused. Replace the mount if it is worn out, cracked, bent, or damaged.
Can I change the brake myself?
When replacing an identical brake, the work can often be done with ordinary hand tools. Use the old brake and the low-speed pulley as a reference and check the function carefully after installation.
Why does the door or window not stay in place after installation?
Check that the transmission is engaged, that the parking brake is activated, that the parking shaft is the correct length, and that the frame mount and the parking brake are properly installed.
