STELLAR LIFT & SLIDE PATIO DOOR OPENS UP MORE OPPORTUNITIES
|
The Stellar Lift & Slide door from Epwin Window Systems supports current market trends perfectly with its slimline , clean aesthetics and quick fitting innovations . With the recent resurgence in sliding door popularity driven by consumer demand for a larger glazed area , the Stellar Lift & Slide door is fast becoming the sliding door of choice with installers .
Philip Parry , Business Development Director at Epwin Window Systems explains : “ Like all of the products in the Stellar range , the Lift & Slide Door is an example of the exceptional results you get when

a product is designed with the fabricator , installer and end user in mind . The Lift & Slide Door continues the Stellar innovation of utilising pre-gasketed profiles and our recently patented pre-gasketed aluminium knock-in beads . Not only is
it quick and easy to glaze minimising installers time on site , it also delivers a neat , clean gasket line for a superior overall finish and eliminates common issues associated with systems relying on old fashioned and time-consuming installation
techniques which can often deliver poor aesthetics further down the line .”
Available in 2 , 3 and 4 pane variations , the Lift & Slide Door is suitable for openings of up to 6.5 meters . Sash widths of up to 3 metres wide are available with a choice of 96mm , 68mm and 50mm interlock widths to achieve the best combination of perfect sightlines and size capability . Combined with Stellar ’ s slim sightlines , it means the door delivers the large glass area and clean , pared-back aesthetics that are so desirable . Phil said : “ There is a growing market looking to give their home something different to the
more common bi-fold with the constraints that they can present , and the additional glazed area is welcome to those looking to maximise the amount of glass and minimise obstructions to their view . Epwin has set a new standard for the domestic aluminium system sector . Stellar is a pre-gasketed system offering superior aesthetics that is adaptable , attractive and simple to install and is available from a systems company with a customer-focused friendly approach , making it a true star performer .”
The doors are easy-touse thanks to the use of Lift and Slide technology , which means there ’ s a
built-in system that takes some of the weight when opening the panes . The range of threshold options means the door can meet various access needs including a low threshold for an almost seamless transition . Others are designed to offer easy access for wheelchairs and for more exposed locations .
The system has been fully UKAS approved to PAS24:2016 and exceeds all requirements for BS / EN6375-1,2 & 3 in its standard form , also meeting Secure by Design requirements with appropriate glazing .
