GR132 Lift & Slide Door
The lift-and-slide system: a heavy 132 mm frame for wall-sized glazed openings that lift clear of their seals to glide, then drop and lock airtight.
Turning the handle lifts the panel off its gasket so a large, heavy leaf slides with one hand; releasing it sets the panel down onto a continuous seal for a weathertight, low-air-leakage close. It suits the big openings that make an amenity floor or a penthouse.

What is a lift-and-slide door?
A lift-and-slide door is the heavy-duty evolution of a slider. Turning the handle physically lifts the panels off their seals so even a large, heavy leaf glides with one hand; turning it back sets the panel down onto a continuous gasket and locks it in place. That lift-and-drop action gives far better air, water, and structural performance than an ordinary sliding door. Panels come in two-, three-, and four-leaf layouts, and the biggest units still open with one hand and close with a finger.
