Product Overview:

Designed to meet the most stringent North American performance criteria, this 150 mm deep lifting sliding door system delivers hurricane‑grade water resistance and exceptional air‑sealing without sacrificing operational smoothness. Independently tested and certified to NAFS (AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440‑11) , CSA, and CE standards, it offers the flexibility of two distinct hardware platforms: a high‑performance lifting sliding mechanism for effortless handling of panels up to 300 kg, or a standard sliding configuration for cost‑sensitive projects. With a slim interlock stile and clean sightlines, it is the ideal solution for luxury residences, coastal properties, and commercial applications requiring both aesthetic refinement and verified structural integrity.

Key Features & Technology:

1. Dual‑Hardware Flexibility – One System, Two Price Points
Engineered to adapt to project budgets and performance requirements:

Lifting sliding version – Precision‑engineered lifting hardware elevates the panel slightly when the handle is turned, breaking the seal and allowing the 300 kg sash to glide effortlessly. When closed, the panel drops onto continuous compression seals, achieving 720 Pa water tightness and near‑zero air infiltration.
Standard sliding version – Retains the same profile, thermal break, and glazing capacity, but utilises conventional sliding rollers. Ideal for interior partitions, mild climates, or projects where the ultimate water/air performance is not required. Cost‑effective without compromising structural strength.

2. Certified North American Compliance
Full validation through accredited third‑party laboratories:

NAFS (AAMA/WDMA/CSA 101/I.S.2/A440‑11) – Meets or exceeds Class CW‑PG performance levels
CSA A440 – Canadian standard for fenestration
CE marked – International project acceptance
Tested size: representative production samples

3. Outstanding Weather Performance – Hurricane Ready

Water penetration resistance: 720 Pa – Superior to most sliding doors in its class, suitable for high‑exposure coastal regions.
Wind load resistance: +3600 Pa design pressure – Withstands severe storm events.
Air infiltration: Meets A4 / class equivalent (verified by NAFS testing).

4. Slim Interlock Stile – Maximised Glazing Area
Despite its massive 300 kg capacity and 150 mm chassis depth, the vertical meeting stile has been engineered to be visually slim. This allows for nearly uninterrupted panoramic views – a critical design feature for high‑end residential and hospitality projects.

5. Thermal Break & Energy Efficiency
Integral polyamide thermal break separates interior and exterior metal surfaces, minimising condensation and thermal bridging. Whole‑system Uw value ≤ 1.7 W/m²K (approx. 0.30 BTU/hr·ft²·°F) – compliant with energy codes across North American Climate Zones 4–7. Compatible with double or triple glazing.

6. Acoustic Insulation
Weighted sound reduction index Rw up to 35 dB effectively attenuates exterior noise – suitable for urban residences, airports, and busy commercial districts.

7. Heavy‑Gauge Structural Profiles
Main profiles feature 2.0 mm wall thickness, engineered to support panels up to:

Width: 600 – 3000 mm
Height: 1500 – 3500 mm
Weight: 300 kg per panel

Why Choose This 150 mm Sliding Door System?

For Architects & Specifiers
Achieve coastal‑grade performance without the visual weight of traditional storm‑rated sliders. The 150 mm chassis supports panels up to 3 metres wide, while the slim interlock keeps sightlines clean and contemporary. Dual‑hardware options allow you to precisely match performance to budget – lift for extreme weather, standard for interior or climate‑controlled applications.

For Developers & Builders
One inventory platform serves both luxury specification and value‑engineered phases. The lifting version commands premium pricing; the standard version competes in the mid‑market. Common profiles, glazing, and accessories reduce complexity and shorten lead times.

For Homeowners
Experience the silky smooth operation of German‑engineered lifting hardware. A light turn of the handle floats the panel open, while the multi‑point lock pulls it shut against quadruple compression seals. Enjoy storm‑safe confidence, lower energy bills, and a whisper‑quiet interior.
