Product Details
The Aluminum Door For Patios is a sliding aluminum patio door engineered for thermal efficiency. It uses a thermal break mechanism to reduce heat transfer while delivering smooth operation. The frame uses 6063-T5 aluminum alloy with 2.2mm wall thickness, and the standard insulated glass unit (5mm+27A+5mm) provides thermal and acoustic performance. EPDM double sealing and hidden drainage channels help maintain water tightness and air tightness in exposed patio positions.
For project buyers, the aluminum patio door system offers flexibility beyond standard sizes—panel widths from 580mm to 3000mm and heights up to 4000mm for heavy sliding doors, with load capacities reaching 1000kg per panel. The factory’s annual production capacity of 300,000㎡ and dedicated engineering support allow for consistent supply across multi-unit residential, hospitality, and commercial developments. Buyers can expect ready customization and technical consultation, with lead times typically 25–35 days after drawing confirmation.
Product Features
Thermal Break Efficiency: The aluminum patio door uses a proprietary thermal break profile to achieve U-values as low as 2.3 W/(m²·K), helping reduce energy costs in climate-controlled spaces.
Wind Pressure Resistance: Engineered to withstand wind pressure up to 4.5kPa, the structure suits coastal and high-rise applications where strong gusts frequently challenge stability.
Sound Insulation: With ratings of 30–32dB depending on glass configuration, these doors help maintain a quiet interior environment even near busy streets or public areas.
Heavy Panel Capability: The large sliding door configuration can support panels up to 1000kg, enabling expansive glass openings without compromising operating smoothness or long-term reliability.
Anti-Typhoon Design: An anti-swing upper wheel and 12mm upper rail overlap provide extra resistance against panel displacement during extreme weather events.
Hidden Drainage: A patented floor drain structure (ZL202130307725.6) channels water away discreetly, preserving clean sightlines while protecting interior floors from water ingress.
Customizable Styles
Glass Upgrades: Options extend beyond standard double tempered glass to include Low-E, laminated safety glass, reflective, tinted, and triple tempered configurations, enabling precise solar control and security.
Frame Finishes: Powder coating, PVDF, anodized, and wood grain finishes are available. Buyers can request RAL or Pantone reference colors; physical samples may be provided upon order confirmation.
Dimensional Flexibility: Panel width can range from 580mm to 3000mm, and heights from 800mm to 4000mm for heavy series, making custom aluminum patio doors suitable for both intimate terraces and grand commercial entrances.
Track Configurations: Two-track, three-track, and fixed panel combinations allow for single, double, or multi-panel sliding arrangements. Motorized synchronization can be discussed for automated opening systems.
OEM Branding: Private-label hardware engraving and custom logo printing on packaging are available. Buyers can discuss branding requirements with the factory team prior to production.
Hardware Accessories
HOPO 340mm Aluminum Handle: A key piece of aluminum door hardware, this handle combines aluminum alloy durability with an ergonomic design, suitable for frequent use in high-traffic patio door systems.
304 Stainless Steel Hook Lock: Crafted from stainless steel, the single hook lock resists corrosion and provides positive engagement, an important feature for exterior doors exposed to humidity.
Custom Silent Four-Wheel Pulley: Enables exceptionally smooth and quiet sliding, even under heavy panel loads, reducing wear on the track over time.
Anti-Swing Upper Wheel: Prevents door panel displacement during strong winds, adding structural stability, particularly in typhoon-prone regions.
Multi-Point Locking System: An important addition among aluminum sliding door accessories, this system engages at multiple points along the frame to significantly enhance perimeter security.
Basic Parameters
