What it is
Lift-and-slide doors
A broad family of sliding and lift-and-slide systems with a choice of thresholds, tracks and corner solutions.
Role in the project
Ultraglide
Ultraglide is used for large glazed openings, in a sliding or lift-and-slide version to suit the project.
What to consider
Purpose and limitations
The low-threshold, corner, Monorail and Thermo versions are each built differently.
Five Ultraglide variants for different projects
Choose the layout, threshold, corner or thermal assembly
The Ultraglide versions are not ranked by quality. The basic system, the low threshold, the corner solution, Monorail and Thermo suit different project conditions, and each version has its own geometry.
01This system
Technical system name
Standard sliding and HST platformUltraglide
The versatile Ultraglide base for sliding and lift-and-slide layouts in large glazed openings. Final weight, size, number of tracks and operation are confirmed for the specific configuration.
This system02Technical system name
Easier access with a low thresholdUltraglide low threshold
Choose this version when a lower step-over height is an important requirement for the project. A low threshold alone does not guarantee a fully level, barrier-free or watertight detail; that also takes a properly designed floor and drainage.
View version03Technical system name
Glazed corner that opensUltraglide corner system
The corner solution lets the sashes slide away and open up a 90° corner. It is not a fixed glass corner; the sash order, the choice of two or three tracks and the number of units depend on the specific layout.
View version04Technical system name
One sliding track and a dedicated fixed lightUltraglide Monorail
Monorail separates the active sliding sash from a purpose-built fixed light. It has its own asymmetric frame and is not interchangeable with the standard Ultraglide or the Inferno Monorail cross-section.
View version05Technical system name
Ultraglide assembly with improved thermal performanceUltraglide Thermo
Thermo is chosen when thermal requirements call for a deeper frame, a sash depth of 77 mm and a wider range of infills. It has its own profile assembly, which is checked for the specific unit.

Before the final specification
What is the Ultraglide system?
A broad family of sliding and lift-and-slide systems with a choice of thresholds, tracks and corner solutions.
What is the Ultraglide system designed for?
Ultraglide is used for large glazed openings, in a sliding or lift-and-slide version to suit the project.
What should you consider when choosing the Ultraglide system?
The low-threshold, corner, Monorail and Thermo versions are each built differently.
Is all the technical data the same for every version?
Sizes, glass, hardware, structural calculations, threshold and opening type are confirmed for each individual opening – only then can the system be tailored to your LUMORA project.
