Handles

Handles

For these doors you can have a stylish P-handle. An ergonomic user friendly handle, with which to operate the doors. Comes with key locking, P-handles are available in Gloss White, Black, Chrome or a Matt Silver finish.


Stainless Steel Track & High Spec Rollers

Stainless Steel Track & High Spec Rollers

These doors are bottom hung and sit on high strength rollers that can take sash weights of up to 200Kg. The hardwearing nylon rollers support the entire weight of the doors and when combined with the stainless steel track, result in a smooth gliding opening action. The rollers are concealed by the sliding sash, which overlaps and runs on the track like a monorail.

Duraslide 2000 Security Without Compromise

Duraslide 2000 aluminium sliding patio doors have been designed with security in mind, combining secure locking, anti-lift protection, robust frame design and high security glazing for confidence every day.

Five key security features working together

When anyone has new windows or doors installed in their home, security is always at the forefront of their mind. That is why our patio doors have been designed and manufactured with security in mind, delivering excellent security without compromise.

From high security multipoint locking and anti-lift protection through to mono-rail frame construction and high security glazing, each detail has been developed to help keep the system safe, secure and dependable.

  • High security multi-point locking
  • Anti-lift blocks
  • Mono-rail frame construction
  • Key locking handles
  • High security glazing

High Security Multi-point Locking
01

High Security Multi-point Locking

These patio doors are fitted with high security multipoint locking as standard. The locking mechanism consists of four bi-directional hook locks, which fully secure the sliding panels and help prevent them from being lifted out of their track.

The mechanism is operated by lifting the small lever on the handle when the door is closed.

Anti-Lift Blocks
02

Anti-Lift Blocks

External sliding doors should ideally be fitted with an anti-lift device, and these doors use anti-lift blocks designed to prevent the sliding panels from being disengaged from the track — a common method of attack on patio doors.

Once the sliding sashes are inserted into the frame, this simple but effective device is fitted to the top and bottom of each sliding sash. It restricts movement, helps guide the panel smoothly and, when combined with the multipoint lock, greatly improves security.

Mono-Rail Frame Construction
03

Mono-Rail Frame Construction

The door panels slide on a mono-rail style track, which acts as both a guide and a security measure. The sliding sashes sit on the mono-rail shaped outerframe and track, which protrudes up into the sliding panels.

When closed, the sliding panel wraps over the outerframe jambs in a male-to-female coupling action, helping to conceal the locks and keeps. This makes the locking arrangement much harder to attack and also helps prevent the panels being lifted out of the frame.

Key Locking Handles
04

Key Locking Handles

When closed, the doors are secured by using a key to lock the cylinder, which then locks off the handle and prevents it from being used to operate the locking mechanism.

These cylinders are designed to be highly resistant to picking and drilling, helping to provide greater protection in everyday use.

High Security Glazing
05

High Security Glazing

These patio doors use a high security wrap-around glazing system, providing both added security and ease of installation. Because the sliding sashes are constructed around the sealed units, the glass can only be deglazed by removing the sliding sashes from the frame and deconstructing them.

Toughened safety glass is supplied as standard, and laminated security glass is also available as an upgrade for additional protection.
