Smooth Lift and Glide Operation
The system lifts slightly from its track during use, allowing the door to move smoothly without friction. When released, the door settles securely into position for a tight, weather-resistant seal.
Strength and Insulation Combined
Each system is constructed from thermally broken aluminium profiles that provide rigidity, strength and insulation. This combination delivers comfort and durability all year round.
Made to Measure for Every Opening
Smart Lift and Slide Patio Doors can be specified with two, three or four panels. Each unit is built to order, ensuring a perfect fit and smooth operation in any property layout.
Looking for a Slimmer Sliding System?
If you prefer a simpler sliding action without the lift mechanism, take a look at our Smart Patio Sliding Doors. They share the same reliable build quality and thermal performance while offering slimmer frames and a classic sliding operation.
