Lift & Slide Doors — Walls
of Glass That Actually Move
Premium aluminum lift-and-slide systems creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Minimal sightlines, maximum glass area, and effortless single-hand operation — regardless of panel size or weight.
Sliding Door System Available
A standard sliding door and a lift-and-slide door are completely different products. In a standard sliding, the panel drags on a fixed bottom track. In a lift-and-slide, operating the handle raises the panel off its seal onto precision stainless rollers — it then glides with almost no effort, regardless of the panel's weight or size.
This mechanism allows panels to be dramatically larger and heavier than standard sliding doors — true floor-to-ceiling glass, panels several metres wide, multi-panel configurations that open an entire wall. Ultra-slim aluminum sightlines as narrow as 20mm between panels create an almost frameless glass wall effect.
When the handle returns to lock, the panel drops back onto a perimeter compression seal — achieving the same airtightness as a hinged door. This is the product specified for luxury custom homes, penthouse apartments, and high-end commercial projects.
Key Benefits
Panels can be as tall as your ceiling and as wide as several metres — creating a genuine glass wall. The standard sliding door cannot achieve this scale.
The lifting mechanism means even a 400kg glass panel operates with a single finger. Regardless of how large the panel is.
When the handle returns to lock, the panel drops onto a full-perimeter compression seal — the same sealing principle as a swing door, which standard sliding tracks cannot replicate.
Profiles engineered for lift-and-slide achieve sightlines as narrow as 20mm between adjacent glass panels — an almost frameless appearance from inside and outside.
Thermally broken aluminum profiles and triple glazing with Low-E coating achieve excellent U-values. A large glass wall doesn't have to mean a large heating bill.
Lift-and-slide doors have become the defining feature of luxury custom homes — connecting interior living space to a covered terrace, pool deck, or garden with no visual barrier.
