- Panel configurations from 2 to 10 panels, folding inward or outward.
- Standard 5+20A+5 double tempered insulating glass with fluorocarbon spacer.
- Multiple threshold options: low track (~20mm) or waterproof track (55mm).
- Project-based quotation supported by CE, NFRC, AS2047, and CSA certifications.
Product Details
Designed as a low-rise building door system, this 80 Series aluminum folding door features a robust 2.0mm wall thickness frame and a German-technology thermal break to manage heat transfer. The accordion glass door integrates a triple-seal EPDM gasket with a one-piece duckbill profile, helping to maintain water and air tightness across multiple panels while still allowing effortless folding operation.
Multiple panel configurations (C1–C9) allow the aluminum bifold door to fold to one or both sides, accommodating opening widths up to 60 feet, subject to structural and wind load verification. Stainless steel bottom support rollers and zinc alloy drain caps add long-term durability. This system fits restaurants, hotel event spaces, and villa terraces, eliminating vertical mullions for a fully open transition between interior and exterior areas.
Product Features
Robust 6063-T5 Frame: 2.0mm wall thickness and 80mm frame depth provide structural integrity for frequent folding and large openings without excessive deflection.
Insulating Glass Standard: Comes with 5+20A+5 double tempered insulating glass and fluorocarbon spacer; upgrade to Low-E, reflective, or built-in blinds for better solar control.
Thermal Break Technology: German-style polyamide strip reduces conductive heat transfer between interior and exterior, supporting energy code compliance.
Weather-Resistant Sealing: EPDM triple-seal design with duckbill gasket helps achieve water tightness and air tightness performance, even in exposed low-rise applications.
Smooth, Secure Hardware: CMECH aluminum handle, hinges, and multi-point lock points combined with stainless steel rollers ensure easy operation and locking security.
Flexible Panel Layouts: Choose 2 to 10 panels, center or single-side opening, inward or outward folding, to fit site dimensions from narrow apartment balconies to wide retail facades.
Customizable Styles
Glass Options: Beyond standard double tempered, select triple argon-filled, Low-E, reflective, laminated, tinted, or built-in blinds (19A magnetic or 21A solar) based on project needs.
Frame Colors: Standard finishes include Caramel Coffee, Quartz Gray, Black Crystal Stone, and Starry Sky Black; custom powder coating and dual-color interiors/exteriors available.
Panel Configurations: C1–C9 layouts offer 2 to 10 panels folding to one or both sides, with inward or outward opening direction; select after consulting opening dimensions.
Track Selection: High track, low track (~20mm), or waterproof low track (55mm) to suit threshold conditions; integrated folding screen optional.
Size Customization: Single panels range from 500–850mm wide and 1000–3000mm high; overall width depends on panel count and may be engineered up to 60 feet, subject to confirmation.
Hardware Accessories
CMECH Aluminum Handle: Black aluminum finish, ergonomic grip, and corrosion-resistant for repeated daily use in commercial settings.
CMECH Hinges: Precision-machined to maintain alignment and smooth folding motion across multiple panels, reducing wear over time.
CMECH Lock Points: Multi-point locking integrated into frame for enhanced security when the door is closed and locked.
Stainless Steel Rollers: Bottom support rollers with durable stainless steel construction and protective caps, handling panel weight and frequent cycling.
EPDM Sealing System: Triple-seal duckbill gasket provides reliable air and water resistance; includes zinc alloy drain caps for water management.
Basic Parameters
Performance Item | Available Information | Buyer Notes |
|---|---|---|
Thermal Insulation | Level 7 per manufacturer catalog; U-Factor 0.38 for standard glazing | Request project-specific NFRC report; actual U-value depends on glass and frame configuration. |
Wind Pressure Resistance | Level 9 (no specific pressure value provided) | Confirm design pressure rating and wind load test report for your building location. |
Water Tightness | Level 4; catalog shows 350Pa static | Verify dynamic water penetration resistance under expected rainfall and wind conditions. |
Air Tightness | Level 6; catalog shows 1.8 m³/(m·h) | Clarify air leakage class per relevant standard (e.g., EN 12207 or ASTM E283) for project spec. |
Sound Insulation | Level 5; no Rw/STC value given | Demand laboratory acoustic test report with Rw/STC rating for chosen glass configuration. |
