A new ‘Hi’ for
aluminium sliding doors
When it comes to specification, style, and security, the
ultra-slim Hi-Finity sliding door from leading aluminium
system company Reynaers is going to be hard to ignore.
» » REBECCA COPE, MARKETING
Manager at Reynaers, said: ‘‘Our Hi-Finity
sliding door has created some of our most
elite projects. Security is a growing concern
amongst many, especially when large areas of
the home are on show through large glass
panes. This product ensures optimum safety
and peace of mind for our clients.’’
The sliding door system has been tested
at dedicated façade engineering consultants,
Wintech, who are accredited by the United
Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) using
state-of-the-art testing facilities. Wintech
tested on a manually operating Hi-Finity sliding
door consisting of one fixed pane and one
sliding pane with an electric locking system.
It is the first bonded door of its type to be
tested to the PAS 24:2016 security standard;
the latest test method used for the enhanced
security performance of windows and doors.
The product is intended to resist attacks linked
with casual or opportunistic burglars. The
test is also required as part of the prestigious
Secured By Design accreditation which
Reynaers is in the process of finalising for the
Hi-Finity sliding door.

The variant of the Hi-Finity sliding door
system was tested to a size of 3.1 metres
wide and 3.05 metres high, maximising
the height achievable at the independent
test centre. The scale of testing ensures
that the Hi-Finity product can provide
large transparent walls and uninterrupted
panoramas with a light and sleek appearance
whilst offering maximum security levels.
Ideal for low-energy contemporary
architecture, the system can be installed in
both residential and commercial projects.
The design utilises an ergonomically designed
handle and concealed locking system as
well as the opportunity to create floor-to-
ceiling and wall-to-wall glass. Furthermore,
the extreme strength of the system allows
for large panes of glass weighing up to 750
kilograms and measuring up to three and a
half metres.
