PERFORMANCE AND COMPARISON TABLE


23/28

Choose the right sliding doorKeep your eye on the whole picture. Which functions are most important for you? Light

and openness often add value to the whole house. User-friendly functions are important

for practical daily use.

FunctionMake sure you prioritise the function of the room. Choosing

the right sliding door with the right fittings is dependant onhow you want to use the room.

OpeningHow large an opening do you want? Large sections also

imply heavy weight. Fixed window sections combined with

sliding doors give a visual openness.

PositionWeather and wind influence your choice. Areas close to

the sea require strong materials and solutions. Sealing,

low U-values and minimum maintenance save both energy

and time.

Comfort and performanceStable designs with good weather seals give the right

conditions for a good acoustic climate and good energyhouseholding. The choice of handles and fittings is impor-

tant for easy use and security.

GlassChoose your functional glass in consultation with our

producers. Our standard solutions are suitable in most

cases, but there is always room for special requirements.

Surface treatmentAluminium building systems require minimum maintenance.

Choose between anodised or painted surfaces. You can

choose different colours on the inside and outside.

The U-value of a structure defines how much

energy is lost through radiation, convection

and conduction. The following values are

calculated for a selection of sizes to help you

compare products.

Uw

(Uwindow

) gives the value for the whole door

solution, Ug(U

glass) gives the value at the centre

of the glass. Our calculations are based on a so

called hot edge insulated window pane.

Examples of u-values for different sizes ofdoors*

Energy valuesOur system solutions are flexible and dimensions can be customised to suit your requirements.

* Theoretical U-value calculation with consideration

to glass, profile proportion and linear factors for edge

zone effects according to EN -/.
