NW Rooftech, a leading provider of high-performance fenestration solutions, continues to offer some of the most advanced whole-house fenestration available, with Aluna Sliding Doors remaining a standout option in its sliding door range. These aluminium doors represent a shift in the market towards refined, high-performance systems that cater to the evolving demands of both residential and commercial spaces. Combining contemporary aesthetics with superior functionality, Aluna Sliders offer an advanced solution for homeowners and developers seeking seamless integration between indoor and outdoor environments.

The Evolution of Sliding Door Technology

In an industry that continuously pushes the boundaries of form and function, patio slider technology has undergone a significant transformation. Homeowners and developers are increasingly seeking fenestration solutions that prioritise slim sightlines, energy efficiency, and smooth operation, moving beyond the bulky, restrictive designs of traditional patio doors. Aluminium sliding doors, such as those within the Aluna range, represent the next generation of architectural glazing; offering high-performance engineering, large glass expanses, and superior durability.

What sets Aluna Sliding Doors apart is their ability to accommodate impressively large glazing areas while maintaining ultra-slim interlocks of just 25mm. This ensures maximum visibility and natural

light, a feature that has become a hallmark of contemporary architectural design. As homes increasingly embrace open-plan concepts and fluid transitions between interior and exterior spaces, these doors provide the perfect balance of function and form.

Advanced Engineering for Modern Living

Aluminium has become the material of choice for modern fenestration due to its strength, versatility, and low-maintenance properties. The marine-grade aluminium construction of Aluna Sliding Doors takes this a step further, ensuring exceptional durability, even in coastal and high-exposure environments where resistance to

corrosion and weathering is paramount. In addition to structural resilience, thermal efficiency remains a core consideration in product development. Aluna Sliding Doors achieve U-values as low as 1.4 W / m ² K, delivering excellent insulation that supports sustainable, energy-efficient homes. This is made possible through thermally broken aluminium frames and high-performance glazing, which work together to minimise heat transfer and maintain indoor temperature stability. With energy regulations becoming increasingly stringent, doors that meet and exceed these standards are essential for forward-thinking developments.

Acoustic insulation is another key advantage. Whether installed in an urban apartment, a countryside retreat, or a high-traffic residential area, these doors significantly reduce external noise levels, creating quieter and more comfortable indoor environments.

Security is equally prioritised, with Aluna Sliders built to PAS24 security standards, reinforcing protection against forced entry and providing homeowners with greater peace of mind.

“ Homeowners and developers are looking for more than just a standard sliding door; they want a product that delivers on aesthetics, security, and long-term performance,” says Andy Ingman, CEO of NW Rooftech.“ Aluna Sliding Doors meet all of these expectations, offering a solution that enhances any living space while standing up to the demands of modern construction.”

Seamless Integration & Design Flexibility

Beyond their technical advantages, Aluna Sliding Doors offer unparalleled versatility, making them an excellent choice for various architectural styles and applications. With sash sizes reaching up

to 2.5m wide and 2.7m high, these doors allow for impressive glass expanses, that seamlessly integrate with both contemporary and traditional properties.

Options for monorail, inline, and liftand-slide configurations provide further flexibility, catering to specific project needs and aesthetic preferences. The integration of soft-close technology ensures smooth, effortless operation, while precision-engineered weatherproofing seals and treadplates enhance long-term performance against the elements.

“ The Aluna Sliding Door range offers a rare combination of elegance and robustness,” added Andy.“ It’ s a system that is as much about ease of use and durability as it is about visual impact; giving installers and homeowners the best of both worlds.”

The inclusion of Aluna Sliding Doors in NW Rooftech’ s portfolio underscores its commitment to offering market-leading solutions. With shifting consumer preferences placing greater emphasis on energy efficiency, security, and aesthetic appeal, aluminium sliding doors are becoming the preferred choice for homeowners and developers alike.

As demand for high-specification, low-maintenance solutions continues to grow, NW Rooftech remains at the forefront of this evolution, providing best-in-class fenestration products that combine cutting-edge innovation with real-world practicality. By aligning itself with industry-leading systems houses, the company ensures that its trade installers have access to solutions that set new benchmarks in design, durability, and performance.
