Aluminium lift and slide doors

Luxurious door system made of top-quality material for highest demands

A generous view outside and rooms flooded with natural light - you can make these wishes come true with an individual lift and slide door. Sliding patio doors are popular solutions for the access to the terrace or balcony.

The lift and slide door is a comfortable, user-friendly and space-saving variant. Such systems are usually made of uPVC, timber or aluclad-timber.
However, aluminium frames are often used in upscale residential and public buildings - for a good reason: Due to their high stability, aluminium sliding patio doors offer the possibility of exceptionally large glass surfaces. In addition to a noble and highly customisable design, when choosing such a door you benefit from the unbeatably low maintenance requirements and the above-average durability. Modern aluminium systems can also score when it comes to safety and thermal insulation.

Home comfort at a high level

Lift and slide doors consist of at least one fixed and one movable sash. When the door is closed, the sliding element rests in a perfectly sealed position. By operating the door handle, it is lifted out of this position with the help of special fittings and can now be slid sideways parallel to the fixed sash. On the top and bottom of the lift and slide door there are rails in which the movable door leaf slides on rollers or carriages. This ingenious mechanism not only ensures space-saving and easy opening, but also provides a much better tightness than other sliding patio doors.

An additional advantage of lift and slide systems is the option of having a free passage threshold, at the same level with your floor. This creates a walk-through passage between the living room and the outside area, which is even suitable for wheelchairs.

Such a sliding door is perfect for your:

 

  • terrace
  • balcony
  • conservatory

Stability combined with thermal insulation

Aluminium lift and slide doors create glass surfaces and large opening widths with simultaneously a slimline appearance. This is due to the material aluminium, which combines a very light weight with enormous stability. You do not need to worry about distortion of the aluminium frame of doors and windows even with extreme temperature fluctuations. The security of the building also benefits from an aluminium lift and slide door. Especially in combination with special glass and security fittings, you get a considerably increased burglary protection.

Even if aluminium as a material doesn’t have a good insulation value, the manufacturers Reynaers and Schüco have counteracted this with innovative sealing systems and insulation technologies. The modern aluminium profiles achieve first-class Uf-values and - especially in combination with the right glazing - can certainly keep up with the excellent thermal insulation of lift and slide doors made of uPVC or timber.

The perfect aluminium lift and slide door for your needs

When choosing your new sliding patio door, you benefit from the highly individual configurability of our aluminium lift and slide systems. There are almost no limits to the quantity, height and width of the sashes. You are also free to determine whether the aluminium sliding patio door should open to the left or right. The profiles are timeless and blend in visually with any architectural style. In order to meet your taste in matters of colour, you have the maximum choice of coatings in various RAL colours.

To give your property a harmonious overall appearance, a design with different colours on the inside and outside of the aluminium patio door is also possible. Aluminium itself is already almost indestructible. In addition, the special coating offers weather protection and protection against other external influences. With an aluminium lift and slide door you get a durable product that requires hardly any maintenance. An occasional wipe of the frame with warm water is completely sufficient.

The durable CP 130 can be used to create particularly beautiful and extensive views. On the one hand, this is due to the comfortable, almost level threshold. On the other hand, the CP 130 can optionally be fitted with a completely opening corner. This makes a fixed corner post unnecessary and thus let's your gaze wander without disturbance. Furthermore, the CP 130 is extremely stable and allows the use of glass weighing up to 300 kg.

Even with the slim profiles and a reduced mullion geometry, this profile is extremely stable and allows sash weights of up to 400 kg. This means that the CP 155 can be used to realise the desire for a very large sliding glass door and even a completely open corner. The profile keeps reliably tight in wind and driving rain and can achieve an Uf-value of up to 1.07 W/m²K depending on the frame/sash combination and thickness of the filling.
