Heavy Duty or Oversize Sliders offer increased Architectural opportunity. Thermosash suite sections allow for large sliders, single or multiple stacking. These are commonly specified where vehicle or over height access is required into a building for example car sales yards and convention centres.
The hardware systems that Thermosash allows for offers easy sliding or integration of automated door opening gear where required and high loading / trafficability over the sliding tracks.
Frame Size
An example of one of the largest glazed sliding doors we have installed is located at the Viaduct Events Centre in Auckland measuring 4mtrs x 4mtrs. The limitation is generally with maximum transport loads and glass weight, however larger doors can be transported CKD and assembled on site where necessary.
The stile section for the over-sized sliding doors is generally 100mm and is capable of receiving double glazed units up to 24mm. Depending on the door size and other environmental factors such as wind - stiffeners may be required.

Low-Carbon Aluminium heavy duty sliders
Thermosash partners with a local NZ-owned extruder achieving a lower carbon footprint than the global average - offering reduced upfront carbon emissions. (find out more about our Sustainable Aluminium).
Thermosash manufacture all of our own façade components in New Zealand, and primarily source materials were available from the New Zealand market to reduce transport distances and emissions from freight. We recycle 100% of all our metal waste.
