SF60 & SF80 High Performance German Designed Sliding Doors
Large panel sizes achievable
The SF60 and SF80 are giants in sliding door technology, offering individual panels that span up to 6 meters wide, 4 meters tall, and weigh up to 800 kg.
With the potential to configure entire door systems up to 32 meters wide, these models redefine possibilities for expansive, open views. The combination of these impressive panel sizes with sleek 30mm sightlines allows for almost uninterrupted views, whilst maximising the amount of natural light let in.
Non-bonded sliding door system
Bonded sliding doors, where the glass is glued to the frame of the system, have become increasingly more common as other manufacturers struggle to make their slender frame systems rigid enough to provide protection from the elements.
The risk with bonded systems is that should you ever need to replace the glass you'll need to replace the entire panel - frame and all. For this reason the SF60 and SF80 are dry-glazed and not bonded - meaning the glass is held in place by glazing beads not bonded to the frame - ensuring you have complete peace of mind for years to come.

Minimal appearance
The SF60 and SF80 can be manufactured with a unique flush stacking panels. This innovative design allows each panel to slide seamlessly behind the next, creating a sleek, contemporary look when the doors are open and maximising your view out.
When closed the doors combine slender 30mm visible sightlines with frames that align flush with the glass, eliminating the need for bulky reinforcing profiles commonly seen in many slim sliding door systems - ensuring that your view remains unobstructed from every angle.
Industry leading weather performance
The SF60 & SF80 provide industry leading protection from wind and rain, ideal for those in exposed or rural locations. The doors are independently tested in laboratory conditions for water tightness, air permeability and wind load, with the results measured in Pascal ratings.
The doors can achieve 900Pa (Class 9a) for water tightness, 600Pa (Class 4) for air permeability and 2000Pa (Class C3/B5) for wind load, meaning the systems can stand up to even the harshest of British weather conditions all year around.
