What it is
Non-insulated sliding systems
A sliding glass enclosure with minimal profiles for pergolas, terraces and other unheated spaces.
Role in the project
Slide Glass
Slide Glass is a non-insulated sliding system that can be used to enclose terraces and pergolas.
What to consider
Purpose and limitations
Slide Glass uses a non-insulated construction and is not a thermally insulated glass enclosure.
Three separate non-insulated sliding systems
Choose the type of unheated enclosure
Slide Cold, Ecoslide and Slide Glass are not three levels of the same family. They are three equally valid non-insulated systems, compared by sash weight, number of tracks, type of infill and the space you want to enclose.
01
Technical system name
Sturdier non-insulated framed sliding systemSlide Cold
Choose Slide Cold when an opening onto an unheated space, or a suitable interior opening, needs an aluminium sliding profile, a wider range of infills and a higher permitted sash weight. ‘Cold’ means that the system has no thermal break; it is not a substitute for Slide Plus, HST or thermally broken French doors.
View version02Technical system name
Lightweight multi-track enclosureEcoslide
Choose Ecoslide for balconies, loggias, terraces and interiors when slim profiles, two to four tracks and several light sashes matter. It is a lightweight non-insulated system, not a large sliding door for the heated building envelope or a high-performance terrace sliding system.
View version03This systemTechnical system name
Glass enclosure with minimal profilesSlide Glass
Choose Slide Glass when you want to enclose a pergola, terrace or other unheated space with sliding glass panels and barely visible vertical profiles. It uses 10 mm glass and is not a thermally insulated glass enclosure.
