Epwin Window Systems has launched the latest addition to its Stellar Aluminium range, the new Stellar Aluminium inline sliding door.

Phil Parry, technical director at Epwin, said: “The Stellar inline sliding door continues Stellar’s track record of products that set new standards across the industry and redefines product excellence at every level.”

The new door offers a slim aluminium profile and a slimline interlock of just 35mm. Each sash can be up to 1,675mm wide, so there are fewer sashes and wider glazed expanses. And because the outerframe seamlessly aligns with the sash, the door delivers a flush appearance that perfectly suites with other products in the Stellar Aluminium range. It’s available in 2, 3, and 4-pane configurations with a maximum total width of 6,500mm.

Polyamide thermal breaks deliver a U-value of 1.4 W/m²K with 28mm double glazing and as low as 0.9 W/m²K with triple glazing. At the same time, effective seals and bespoke design features provide class-leading performance to BS 6375 standard.

The Stellar Aluminium inline sliding door is available in a standard range of stocked colours or in any other made to order RAL finish. Textured, non-textured and dual colour options are available too. All doors are Qualicoat-approved and come with a 25-year colour guarantee.

Two- and 3-pane doors feature Yale’s 6-hook locking system as standard. For 4-pane doors, there’s a specially developed Yale 10-hook locking system. As a result, the new door is a PAS 24:2022 accredited system and meets Approved Document Q requirements as standard. With the correct glazing specification, it can also meet Secured by Design standards if required.

It also benefits from pre-gasketed knock-in beads, which make sashes quick and easy to glaze, whilst providing a neat, high-end finish on the gasket line.

Phil concluded: “The new Stellar Aluminium inline sliding doors is the perfect solution for any fabricator or installer seeking to offer a standout aluminium sliding door. And because it’s part of the Stellar Aluminium system, it’s part of a comprehensive flush window and door suite, providing elevated aesthetics for today’s modern interiors.”
