Another common sign that it's time to replace sliding glass doors is if you see any gaps between the two doors, or between the door(s) and the frame. This is not only unsafe, but it's costing your clients money on their heating and cooling bills as well. Older houses are notorious for having sliding glass doors that are horribly energy inefficient, so if the sliding doors you are examining are several decades old, more than likely they will need to be replaced. • Keep in mind that sliding glass doors have two basic components: The stationary panel and the sliding panel. Pry loose any exterior trim elements, and then remove the sliding panel first, followed by the stationary panel. • Apply flexible, leak-proof flashing to the doorsill, sides and top (if needed) of the opening.

Sliding Glass Doors: The Engineering

Base Track and Sliding RailRunning underneath the whole of the sliding system is a solid neoprene block. There are many reasons why the system has been engineered this way: It gives a very good thermal break between the internal and external floor finishes and it provides a robust, continuous and solid base for IQ Glass to fit their glass to. This means that there are no dips or undulations in the sliding track over time meaning a higher longevity or use for the system. Made of stainless steel, the rail is curved based on a railway track principle meaning that you get minimal friction across the sliding motion.The sliding door system also comes with the option for an integral slot drain. This drainage solution sits neatly under the external floor finish. Any water runoff from the sliding panes will drain through the base track and onto the neoprene base which has built in water run-off grooves. This will drain any water away from the system and internal spaces into the drainage available.Locking and VentilationLocking in a minimal framed system such as Sliding Glass Doors can sometimes be quite difficult to engineer due to the lack of framework available. The Sliding Glass Door system is engineered to solve this problem with their integrated two point lock. From the outside, the lock consists of a discreet handle that when turned, sends shoot bolts to fit into the ceiling and floor securing the system in place.After installing large, mostly unframed sections of sliding glass it seems a waste to stick trickle vents along the top of the system. With Sliding Glass Doors you can use s system call 'Slot Aeration' whereby you can lock the Sliding Glass Door into one of three locking positions either allowing you to lock the system, give a 20mm ventilation gap or a 40mm ventilation gap.Sliding Glass Doors TechnicalMulti-point locks and key locks are also available on request.Sliding Glass Doors — TechnicalDownload the Sliding Glass Doors Technical Manual to access all the downloadable section details in CAD form.

Replacing Sliding Glass Doors - When, Why and How

Another common sign that it's time to replace sliding glass doors is if you see any gaps between the two doors, or between the door(s) and the frame. This is not only unsafe, but it's costing your clients money on their heating and cooling bills as well. Even if you do not see any gaps, sliding glass doors can still be very energy inefficient; for example, if you can feel any kind of draft when you stand by the door, it's time for a replacement. Older houses are notorious for having sliding glass doors that are horribly energy inefficient, so if the sliding doors you are examining are several decades old, more than likely they will need to be replaced. • Take all of the necessary measurements to find out the width of the rough opening (distance between the studs), as well as its height (distance from floor to beam). This will ensure that you are buying the right sized doors for the replacement. • Keep in mind that sliding glass doors have two basic components: The stationary panel and the sliding panel. Pry loose any exterior trim elements, and then remove the sliding panel first, followed by the stationary panel. • Apply flexible, leak-proof flashing to the doorsill, sides and top (if needed) of the opening. Start by applying the flashing at the bottom first, then work your way up. • Install the new door. Make sure to follow the manufacturer's specific instructions for that particular door, because door handles, lock hardware, weatherstripping systems, and installation methods can vary from one manufacturer to the next. • Finish up the inside by adding extension jambs and trim, then finish the outside by adding trim and support strips. Add caulking to seal it all up.
