The Aluminum Sliding Door For High Wind Areas from DERCHI is built to handle extreme wind loads up to 4.5kPa, making it a reliable choice for coastal, typhoon, and hurricane-prone projects. This B2B solution combines 6063-T5 aluminum alloy, dual tempered glass, and advanced sealing to meet demanding building codes.
- Wind pressure resistance up to 4.5kPa qualifies it as high wind aluminum sliding doors suitable for typhoon-rated installations.
- Multi-chamber 2.2mm 6063-T5 aluminum profiles provide structural integrity under stress.
- Custom sizes, glass types, and finishes with a low MOQ of 2 sqm accelerate project procurement.
Product Details
The Aluminum Sliding Door For High Wind Areas achieves its performance through a combination of 6063-T5 aluminum multi-chamber profiles, 2.2mm wall thickness, and a thermal break design that maintains insulation under wind loads. Its EPDM nine-step embedded sealing system and double EPDM on 143 Series doors deliver air tightness and water resistance critical for wind-driven rain. An anti-typhoon upper wheel with 12mm rail overlap prevents panel derailment, even under pressure fluctuations.
Contrasting with standard sliding doors, this system supports large format sliding door high wind applications with glass options like PVB/SGP laminated glass for impact resistance. The design integrates a multi-chamber profile to absorb wind pressure and a PVDF or anodized finish for coastal sliding door system durability. These features make it a hurricane proof sliding glass door candidate when tested to the required project standards.
Product Features
4.5kPa Wind Pressure Rating: The door resists extreme wind loads common in typhoon rated patio door installations, reducing structural risk for high-rise and coastal projects.
Advanced EPDM Sealing: A hidden nine-step embedded sash and double EPDM system (143 Series) achieves air tightness of 3.0 m³/(m·h) and water tightness up to 350Pa, subject to configuration confirmation.
Anti-Typhoon Upper Wheel: The anti-swing design with 12mm upper rail overlap prevents panel disengagement under wind surges, enhancing user safety.
Custom Impact Glass: Upgrades like PVB/SGP laminated glass can be specified to meet hurricane proof sliding glass door standards, with test reports available upon request.
Corrosion-Resistant Finishes: PVDF coating and anodizing protect the aluminum sliding door wind resistance hardware and frame against salt spray and humidity.
Silent Four-Wheel Pulley: The custom pulley system ensures smooth operation even with heavy panels, suitable for commercial sliding door high wind areas usage.
Customizable Styles
Glass Configuration: Choose from dual tempered, Low-E, tinted, reflective, laminated (PVB/SGP), or triple tempered glass, often specified for large format sliding door high wind projects.
Frame Finish: Options include powder coating, PVDF, anodizing, and wood grain transfer to match architectural requirements in coastal sliding door system installations.
Dimensions: Door leaf width from 580mm to 2000mm and height up to 3000mm enable large openings, subject to engineering review for wind load.
Color and Wood Grain: Custom colors and realistic wood grain patterns available with MOQ 2 sqm for personalized aesthetics.
Track Configuration: Top-hung sliding or 90° corner-post-free opening can be discussed for open-plan living and commercial layouts.
Hardware Accessories
HOPO 340mm Aluminum Handle: Sleek and durable, this handle is standard, with other HOPO options available to meet ergonomic or aesthetic needs.
304 Stainless Steel Single Hook Lock: The lock provides high anti-pry security and tight closure, essential for aluminum sliding door wind resistance integrity.
Custom Silent Four-Wheel Pulley: Engineered for quiet, smooth sliding motion, even with heavy hurricane-rated panels.
Anti-Typhoon Anti-Swing Upper Wheel: This component enhances panel stability, contributing to the system’s typhoon rated patio door performance claims.
304 Diamond Mesh Fly Screen: 11 mesh × 0.8mm wire provides ventilation without compromising corrosion resistance, suitable for high wind areas.
