It’s Bigger – Everyday

Despite its much bigger span capability than many comparable systems, Aero-Slide is described as an ‘everyday’ inline PVC-U option by its system supplier.

Aluplast makes the system. The new product joins a sliding door range that includes the high-end HST85 lift-and-slide; and the intermediate, Neo Smart-Slide. Aero-slide has been developed for projects where a fuss-free, reliable patio door is required without the need for a premium system.

Accessibility

Providing customers with a more accessible inline sliding door option for larger openings, Aero-Slide combines contemporary looks and high performance with easier fabrication.

Keith White, the managing director of aluplast UK, said: “Aero-Slide fills an important gap in our range. We already have premium sliding systems for higher-specification projects, yet customers also need a straightforward inline patio door that delivers technically, while remaining competitive in the mainstream marketplace.”

“With configurations that allow multi-pane doors up to 6m wide, aero-slide’s wider-span capability sets the system apart from its competitors.”

Big and energy efficient too

“One of the foremost technical features is that we can go to a 2m sash on a 4m, 2-pane door, which beats the entire market at 2.4m high,” explained White.

“In addition, a double brush seal on the interlock and some very sophisticated brush seals on the sash deliver excellent air leakage performance, while the system accepts glazing from 28mm to 36mm thick. This allows triple glazing and U-values of around 1.0W/m²K, depending on specification.”

The door features a seven-chamber outerframe, four-chamber sash and 85mm frame depth.

Security

Aero-slide is available with standard PVC or PAS24 aluminium interlocks, alongside standard or pre-prepped steel reinforcement options.

It comes in a range of finishes, including smooth colours and woodgrain foils. With Aludec or Woodec, doors can be made in an authentic aluminium or timber appearance.

"If customers want a contemporary matt black finish or a traditional, real oak look, Aero-Slide offers the flexibility to achieve either option very convincingly,” added White.

Aero-Slide’s SquareLine styling complements Aluplast’s Ideal 70 and Ideal 4000 window systems, for a coordinated project package.

“As a straightforward, reliable and commercially practical patio door that fits neatly into our customers’ wider product offer, Aero-Slide completes our sliding door range and presents a new opportunity for fabricators and installers looking to sell into that market,” said White.
