The HD82 Non-Impact Rated system is offered in a range of configurations, multiple sill types and impacted rated thermal glass options - all suited for the most severe climates and weather conditions.
The HD82 system is also available in an Impact rated version with numerous thermally efficient glass options in addition to Turtle and Tinted options. The HD82 Non-Impact rated system, is the result of an extensive design process focused on energy efficiency, structural and water resistance, performance, versatility and value.
As a result of their DP70 rating, the HD82 Hurricane rated Non-Impact folding sliding door systems complies with the stringent Florida Building Codes and for use in other wind-borne areas outside the High Velocity Hurricane Zone.

Powder coating
All of our aluminium products are powder coated which exceeds the current industry standard. There are hundreds of RAL colours that you can choose from.Our powder coatings have a life expectancy of up to 25 years and are maintenance free.To choose your colour accurately and to get a more precise idea of what the colour looks like, it is advised that you obtain a printed RAL colour chart from your local decorators' merchant.Translucent Wood Coatings & Custom colours
All of our wood products are factory sprayed as standard with the highest quality coatings on the market. Choose a natural stain to enhance your choice of woodgrain or choose any RAL paint reference to match an existing building project or existing windows and doors, or if you prefer left natural, the choice is yours.Our factory spray coatings are applied to the timber in three coats at 250 microns per coat, this is comparable with up to 15 coats of brush-applied paint.Our factory spray coatings are low maintenance and have a very long-life span, up to 10 years before requiring first maintenance.Our standards are high
Double glazed, argon filled, Low-E coated toughened (tempered) glass, 1⅛" / 28mm constructed units fitted with Super Spacer® Bars4mm toughened glass outside, 20mm cavity and 4mm toughened Low-E glass inside.
Low-E (K) coating on the inside, gives the glass better thermal properties and allows most natural light to enter freely but reflects a significant portion of short-wave heat energy. In summer, long-wave heat energy radiating from objects is reflected back outside, lowering cooling cost. In winter, internal longwave heat energy is reflected back inside, lowering heating costs.
Toughened glass is a safety glass, shatters into small pieces, is about 4 times stronger than standard glass, is resistance to thermal stress and impact resistance. Argon, has a 34% lower thermal conductivity than air.

HD82s Sculptured
The HD82s Impact Rated Aluminium system incorporates a more aesthetic contour which embraces the characteristics usually associated with timber profile design.
HD82b Bevelled
The HD82b has a sharper look for a modern design. Both options provide the same level of performance with an outstanding DP70 rating.
Bottom Track Options
We manufacture an inline out of sight track system, this track system is strong and secure, and all running gear is concealed (which ever option you choose) and is resistant to attack from potential intruders, we offer both inward and outward opening options. Our flush track option is also water resistant, many other systems do not offer these options.
There are threshold details to suit all applications, some people prefer a step on the inside and outside, some prefer a step on the outside only. But for the many, they prefer flush threshold that blends the inside floor with the outside floor, especially those with children, elderly or someone in a wheel chair.
