A horizontal sliding patio-door option using aluminum frame construction for a crisp, durable profile. Aluminum systems can provide different sightlines and size directions than conventional PVC frames, but thermal design, glazing, sill, panel limits and tested performance must be evaluated as a complete system. Thermal design, visible profile width and panel limits must be checked for the measured opening.
Product media
Use these views to compare proportions and visible details. Final colours and components are confirmed for the measured configuration.
Selection guidance
Aluminum construction offers a crisp, rigid frame appearance that can support contemporary elevations and larger panel directions. Thermal-break design and visible profile width vary, so aluminum alone does not define performance.
Product details
These documented characteristics provide a starting point; the measured configuration determines the final specification.
Complete project scope
Confirm opening size, panel limits, sill, drainage, glazing, thermal design and hardware after measurement. Large panels also require a practical handling route and adequate structural support.
Continue comparing
Compare it with PVC for frame warmth and profile character, and with slim-frame aluminum when reduced sightlines are the primary architectural goal.
A contemporary sliding patio-door direction using aluminum construction and reduced visible frame lines. The slimmer profile prioritizes glass area and a restrained appearance, particularly in larger openings.
A patio-door option combining more than one frame material within the complete system.
A sliding patio-door option built around an insulated PVC frame direction. PVC systems are common in residential replacement work and can support different frame depths, glazing packages, panel arrangements and hardware.
