Description

Aluminium glazed bifold doors designed with narrow 55 mm frame depths and contemporary square-edge profile the SUNFLEX SF55 is suited for bifold door configurations that slide to one end or meet in the middle and slide to either side.


The German designed system is the result of more than 35 years of folding door research and development and each set of doors is handmade in-house by SUNFLEX's own experienced fabricators to the exact requirements of every project.


Features and benefits:


  • Designed with more than 35 years of folding door experience.
  • Slender 55 mm frame depths, narrow 115 mm sightlines and a choice of either low-threshold or fully weathered tracks.
  • Offers an ultra-smooth, effortless operation on doors that can open inwards or outwards and that include exclusive panel catch technology.
  • Manufactured with multi-point locking to meet the requirements of PAS 24:2016 and the Secured by Design™ police preferred specification for security.
  • Independently tested to severe weather rating standards to achieve 900 Pa water tightness* and 600 Pa air permeability*.
  • Thermal performance, with overall system U-values from 1.4W/m²K†.
  • Locking panel catch holds the lead door of the system in place when the doors are being opened, preventing the door from swinging shut.
  • Stacking clip holds the doors securely in place when they are stacked open, stopping the wind (or young children) closing the doors unexpectedly.
  • Patented 24 mm polyamide thermal break.


* Water tightness and air permeability test performance is dependent upon a number of factors including system configuration and panel sizes.


† Thermal performance achieved is dependent on glass specification.
