Sapa Confort 160 highly thermally efficient aluminium double glazing profiles are coupled with 40mm omega shaped, glass fibre reinforced polyamide strips, which reduce thermal conduction. This exciting new product also offers the possibility to gradually enhance thermal value when thermal inserts are applied. The result is that Confort 160 double glazed aluminium sliding doors achieve a high thermal performance level and improved total insulation, leading to lower total energy consumption, a positive benefit to the environment.
These commercial aluminium sliding doors are fabricated and installed by independent double glazing manufacturers Hazlemere Commercial. The product’s combination of multipoint locking, safety glass and special hardware ensures a high resistance against forced entry. Confort 160’s anti burglary profile prevents penetration via a vertical flange. Furthermore an armour plate closes off the lock. Security pieces on top of the vent prevent lifting. Internal tubular glazing beads prevent unclipping of the glazing beads from the outside.
Sapa’s Confort 160 delivers excellent water evacuation via integral drainage holes and integrated sealings. Separated drainage: two levels of drainage. Q-Lon seals ensure perfect weather resistance for the sliding version, EPDM gaskets for the lift-slide version. Combined gasket and brush sealings in central joint of sashes ensure a draught free door.
Confort 160 is designed by Sapa to offer a very appealing design in frame and vent. The system is compatible with other Sapa Building System products that Hazlemere Commercial manufacture and install, such as their curtain wall and conservatory systems. The frame allows the internal floor finishes to be flush with the inner frame and avoids thresholds. Standard ventilation systems can easily be integrated. A comprehensive range of supplementary profiles allows the fenestration to be integrated perfectly into any building. Specially designed end pieces make Confort 160 complete in all respects. The lock of Confort 160 Lift-Slide can include a night vent position, which assures healthy ventilation.
Sapa Building System offers its software SapaLogic, an open concept for automation, to fabricators who have a CNC machining center like Hazlemere Commercial doors and windows. A combination of strong profiles, stainless steel rails and polyamide rollers with needle bearings, allows Confort 160 to be used for glazed areas up to 3m high without external reinforcement. The use of a stainless steel rail ensures the smooth movement of the vents and avoids surface finish pealing off. Polyamide bottom rollers can take up to 400kg for each vent and still ensure a smooth operation. The vent profiles with a building depth of 70mm accommodate glazing up to 55mm. So triple and laminated glass are possible. All Sapa System profiles can be easily cleaned. Aluminium does not rust, rot or tear and the shape does not deform. Aluminium is a green product. It can be recycled infinitely without quality loss.
Over 400 powder coated paint colours in matt, gloss or satin. Unique wood effect, textured and textured metallic ranges are available from Hazlemere Commercial, bespoke Sapa aluminium double glazing manufacturers. Anodised finish is also an option. Accessories can be supplied in corresponding colours to match the profiles. The polyamide thermal breaks allow bi-colour finishes, so that the exterior design requirements do not infringe the interior design requests.
