Schüco UK unveils simple to fabricate innovative panoramic sliding door

Simplified fabrication is the promise for the new ASE 51 PD sliding door being launched by Schüco.  The new panoramic sliding door offers faster fabrication without compromising on the quality that is synonymous with the Schüco brand. Featuring slim sightlines, elegant design and superior thermal performance, it is expected to attract significant interest from homeowners.

The new ASE 51 PD sliding door stands out with its 32 mm interlock and slim 45 mm outer frame, which can be concealed within the building’s structure. Fabricators will be interested in the unique design which eliminates the need for structural bonding between the glass and vent profile, enabling quicker and easier assembly.

Fabrication is further simplified with a wraparound system with screw port connection. A reduced profile selection provides a wide range of design possibilities with fewer profile types to keep in stock.

This sliding door is available with a variety of threshold options including a concealed level threshold with external ‘ACO’ style gutter profile, and a low threshold option suited to refurbishment projects.

The system can accommodate both double and triple glazed units, with options for 200 kg and 400 kg rollers – the latter adjustable to accommodate building tolerances, making installation easier.

The door’s locking mechanism is elegantly integrated within the door frame, complemented by a newly designed handle. Additionally, system extension packers accommodate ventilation requirements without impacting on the design.

Duncan Grover, Head of Product Management, Schüco UK comments: “We are thrilled to introduce our latest innovation – a beautifully designed sliding door that marries technical excellence with aesthetic appeal.  This new addition is not just testament to our commitment to quality and design, but a game-changer for our partners. It allows them to expand their residential offerings with a product that is not only quicker and simpler to fabricate, but also meets the high standards homeowners expect, whether they are refurbishing or constructing new builds.

“With its superior performance, slim sightlines, and elegantly crafted new handle, our door is a perfect example of how thoughtful design can meet rigorous technical performance without compromise.”

The new sliding door is available to see in the Schüco showroom in Milton Keynes. Current Schüco partners can find the ASE 51 PD on SchüCal or can contact their Business Development Manager (BDM) for details.
