Frame Size
An example of one of the largest glazed sliding doors we have installed is located at the Viaduct Events Centre in Auckland measuring 4mtrs x 4mtrs. The limitation is generally with maximum transport loads and glass weight, however larger doors can be transported CKD and assembled on site where necessary.
The stile section for the over-sized sliding doors is generally 100mm and is capable of receiving double glazed units up to 24mm. Depending on the door size and other environmental factors such as wind - stiffeners may be required.
