Why Choose Aluminum Sliding Doors?
Why Choose Aluminum Sliding Doors?
Aluminum sliding doors provide a sleek and contemporary solution for modern homes and commercial spaces. Unlike traditional hinged doors, which require space to swing open, sliding doors move horizontally along a track. This design is ideal for areas with limited space, offering an efficient and seamless transition between indoor and outdoor areas without taking up additional floor space.
Popular Residential Sliding Door Frame Sizes
Aluminum sliding door frames are available in a variety of sizes, such as 80mm, 120mm, 140mm, 210mm etc, to suit different architectural requirements and aesthetic preferences. Double-glazing is typically standard for sliding doors, and options like LowE glass, argon gas fills, or tinted glass can be included to improve energy efficiency and comfort.
Sliding Door Track Options
Aluminum sliding doors are available in different track configurations, with the two most popular options being 2-track and 3-track (stacking) designs.
2-Track Sliding Doors: This is the standard configuration, where two door panels slide along two parallel tracks. This design allows one panel to slide over the other, providing a simple, clean look and easy access to the outdoors.
3-Track Sliding Doors (Stacking Doors): For larger openings, the 3-track option—often referred to as a “stacking door”—is ideal. This design includes three tracks that allow multiple panels to stack neatly behind one another when opened. It maximizes the opening width, creating a more expansive, open feel and a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor spaces.
Customized Design Options for Your Sliding Doors
Our aluminum sliding doors are versatile and can be tailored to meet a wide range of design preferences and functional needs. From standard configurations to custom designs, there are numerous options to choose from, including 2-panel, 3-panel, 4-panel, or even multi-panel sliding door systems that can open up large spaces, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor flow.
Quality Sliding Door Hardware
The hardware for sliding doors is designed to be both functional and reliable. Key components typically include a secure locking mechanism and heavy-duty rollers that support smooth and effortless operation. These rollers are concealed under the door panel for a clean look, while the lock is generally flush-mounted, ensuring a sleek design without compromising on security. Key lock options are also available for enhanced security.
Screen Options for Sliding Doors
Sliding doors can be fitted with screens to allow ventilation while keeping out insects and debris. Here are the two primary screen options:
1. Mosquito Screen: Made from fiberglass, this economical option provides basic protection from insects.
2. Security Stainless Steel Screen: The 304 stainless steel screen offers enhanced security, ideal for homeowners who prioritize safety along with airflow.
Customizable Color Options
Our sliding doors come in a range of color options with a durable powder-coated finish. For homes in coastal areas or regions with harsh weather conditions, a PVDF coating is recommended to provide extra durability and resistance against salt corrosion, UV rays, and extreme weather.
