Product Details
These doors combine 6063-T5 aluminium frames with optional thermally broken construction to lower U-values, while concealed drainage and reinforcement profiles maintain structural integrity under heavy use. Automotive-grade EPDM gaskets form a durable weather seal that helps keep lobbies comfortable and maintenance low.
They handle wind loads up to 5 kPa and water tightness of 700 Pa, as demonstrated by the W-Z3 pivot door. Multi-point locking integrates with access control, and custom dimensions, sidelites, and transoms allow specifiers to meet both aesthetic and code requirements without compromise.
Product Features
Thermally Broken Construction: Polyamide strips separate interior and exterior aluminium, cutting heat transfer and helping reduce a building's heating and cooling loads.
High-Strength 6063-T5 Profiles: Frame and leaf thicknesses of 2.5 to 5.0 mm (depending on model) resist deformation and corrosion, even in coastal or high-traffic settings.
Multi-Point Locking: Heavy-duty shoot bolts secure the door at multiple points, while optional smart locks enable keyless and remote access.
Automotive-Grade Seals: Full-perimeter triple-lip EPDM gaskets maintain air and water performance, keeping lobbies draft-free in challenging weather.
Smart Access Options: Fingerprint, facial recognition, or RFID locks can be integrated—compatible with building management systems and access control networks.
Tested Performance: Systems are independently tested for air (1.2 m³/(m·h)), water (700 Pa), and wind (5 kPa). NFRC and CE certifications are available for project documentation.
Customizable Styles
Glazing Packages: Options include tempered, laminated, low-E, tinted, and insulated double or triple units; bullet-resistant glazing is also available for high-security entries.
Surface Finishes: Standard powder coat colors plus PVDF coatings (Retro Green, Mint Gold) for enhanced weathering and UV resistance.
Size & Configuration: Custom dimensions, multiple panels, sidelites, and transoms can be configured without sacrificing structural performance.
Opening Styles: Pivot, swing, sliding, folding, or French door arrangements adapt to project traffic flow and architectural expression.
Architectural Details: Flush sills (for accessibility), thermally broken frames, and concealed hinges can be specified to meet local building codes.
Hardware Accessories
Heavy-Duty Handles: Full-grip pull handles or lever handles in stainless steel or powder-coated finishes, engineered to withstand thousands of cycles daily.
Concealed Pivot Hinges: Adjustable hidden pivot sets provide smooth operation and a clean, minimalist appearance while supporting heavy door leaves.
Multi-Point Anti-Pry Locks: Class C smart lock options with hook bolts reinforce security. Optional fingerprint or RFID modules integrate with the door's locking system.
Sliding Hardware Kits: For commercial sliding entrance solutions, heavy-duty rollers and tracks ensure quiet, effortless movement for large glass panels.
Weather Seals and Gaskets: EPDM profiles, brush seals, and silicone-flap inserts maintain high air-water performance and are easily replaceable over the door's life.
Basic Parameters

Application Scenarios
Apartment: Multi-unit residential projects benefit from multi-point locking and thermal barriers that reduce common-area energy costs. Access control integration can be matched to building management systems.
Home Office: A quiet, professional entry helps define a home office. Sound-dampening double glazing and sleek hardware create a polished look while maintaining security.
Hotel: Hotel lobbies and guest entrances need doors that perform 24/7. Smart locks with key card readers integrate seamlessly, and low-e glass helps temper lobby heat gain.
Office Building: High-rise offices require aluminium storefront entrance systems rated for wind and air. Our door configurations combine narrow sightlines with structural strength, and customizable sidelites suit corporate branding.
Outdoor: Covered exterior corridors and semi-open spaces rely on weather-resistant seals. We review each site’s exposure and drainage needs to recommend the right gasket and coating package.
Residential Building: For upscale condo developments, full-height door panels, custom finishes, and energy-efficient glass create a refined entry. Code-compliant hardware can be specified for egress and accessibility.
Exterior: As the primary exterior door, thermal break models help manage condensation in cold climates. Our team evaluates wind loads and anchoring details to ensure safe, long-term performance.
Villa: Oversized pivot doors with premium finishes and smart locks act as a design centerpiece while providing security. Wide glass panes and thermal performance are tailored to the villa’s layout.
