Sunflex 45 Non-thermal aluminium system
More info...

Sunflex 65 Laminated timber system
More info...
The Sunflex 65 Timber (65mm front to back) folding sliding door system has the slimmest sightlines in Europe and truly highlights Sunflex’s commitment to quality and design. All timber is sourced from sustainable forests: the standard timbers are Meranti (hardwood), Nordic pine (knot free-softwood), while other timbers such as American White Oak are available by special order. The natural beauty of the wood is enhanced by Sunflex’s finishing techniques, resulting in a product that is comparable to high-quality furniture.
Profile
The Sunflex 65 is manufactured from triple laminated solid timber sections. These sections have been stabilised at stress points and bonded back together with opposing grains, which creates added strength whilst preventing warping and twisting.
This ensures the quality, thermal efficiency, and reliability associated with the Sunflex product range.

Security
The design of the system makes it impossible to lever the panels from their tracks, the standard locking offers a very high level of security whilst providing quick, smooth and easy operation. It consists of a three-point top and bottom shoot bolt mechanism, which is incorporated into the framework and locked into position by a five-lever profile cylinder, meeting the requirements of the Association of British Insurers. Additional profile cylinders or a multi-point locking can also be added for higher security. All panels are internally glazed as standard.
More info...
The shoot rods are manufactured of aluminium and linked by a corrosion-resistant cam. Additionally, they are capped with polyamide cones that prevent any damage to the track when locking.

Weather seals
A moderate weather rated system with rebated twin nylon brush piles separated by a fin seal, front and back to the top and bottom of the panel and a double rebated seal to the sides. This achieves DIN 18055, Category C performance for wind loading and water leakage.
More info...
The flush track
The flush track option is recessed into the floor, providing an uninterrupted floor finish. The bottom seal between the door and the flush track is via double, twin nylon brush piles separated by a fin seal, giving an effective seal. It is recommended that some form of drainage and a slope away from the doors be integrated.
