Application

Provides a contemporary, elegant solution for both residential and commercial applications.

Description

A high-quality, high-performance slide and fold door which maximizes light and space to provide unimpeded views. The highly versatile, easy-to-operate system can open up an entire wall, yet present a contemporary, elegant glazed facade when closed.

With high-security glazing, robust locking mechanisms (including multi-point locks on the main opening sashes, and shoot-bolts on the floating mullions), an unrivalled colour range and the option of colour-matched accessories, the system can be tailored to meet each project’s specific requirements.


Delivering a combination of strength and performance, Visofold 6000 profiles feature a polyamide thermal break that enhances the system’s thermal performance as well as high-quality ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM) gaskets and weather brushes to aid weather resistance.


Fully compliant with the requirements of Building Regulations (E&W) Document L 2010, the doors have the option of either low thresholds for unimpeded, easy access, or rebated thresholds that offer improved weather resistance.


The system features a choice of internally or externally folding sashes, which when open, sit flush to the frame. Sashes are hung from a floating mullion and slide on a recessed bottom roller and top guide, which allow ultra-slim profiles, smooth operation and robust security.


Features and benefits:

  • An enhanced system designed to comply with the revisions to the Building Regulations (E&W), Document L compliant.
  • Door sashes are moved to the side in a concertina fashion.
  • Smooth, easy and reliable operation.
  • Slim profiles maximize open space.
  • Slim lines and discrete hardware maximize light.
  • Maximum flexibility - minimum space requirement.
  • Integrates outdoor and indoor living space.
