Innovative development from Hans Buch’s supplier PennEngineering® provides unique and customized solutions for many applications.

The broad industry is increasingly demanding a solution where mounting elements such as screws, bolts, nuts, and other types of fasteners can be hidden in the applications. Our supplier PennEngineering® now has an elegant answer to this.

PEM® Ghost™ Fastening: Hidden and Secure Locking Mechanism

PEM® Ghost™ Fastening technology is invisible from the outside and provides an elegant aesthetic to your applications. Additionally, the technology contributes to increased security, making it more difficult for outsiders to access the application.

In other words, the technology ensures a solution where the application from the outside has no visible traces or marks to identify the position of the components used to close and lock the application’s content.

How does PEM® Ghost™ technology work?

• PEM® Ghost™ Fasteners consist of a pin and a bushing/holder, both mounted on the inside of the cabinet/housing in your application.
• Magnetic tools are used to release and disassemble the locking mechanism in PEM® Ghost™ Fasteners.

What are the advantages of PEM® Ghost™ Fastening?

• Ensures an unbroken surface to maintain a high aesthetic and new design possibilities.
• Can replace many types of smaller screws, bolts, and bushings conventionally mounted on the outside of an application.
• Available in many sizes, lengths, and widths and can be customized to unique needs for many applications.
• Easy and quick access with magnetic disassembly.

What is PEM® Ghost™ suitable for?

The PEM® Ghost™ fastening technology is applicable in many sectors and industries where there may be a need for a fastening method to hide the components that enable such a solution. Examples of sectors in the broad industry include:

• Telecom
• Servers
• Security
• Consumer products
• Access hardware such as doors, drawers, cabinets, etc.
