Rehau Euroslide Design S920 System Description for Sliding Doors

The Rehau Euroslide Design can be used to make a wide variety of upvc sliding double glazed windows and doors. Three main categories of pvcu window and door design can be fabricated:

  • Horizontal sliding double glazed windows or doors with 2 (two) or more sliding sashes
  • Horizontal sliding double glazed windows or doors with fixed glazing unit
  • Horizontal sliding double glazed windows or doors with flyscreen

Typical design illustrations or photographs of double glazed sliding system windows and doors can be found in the Product Menu or in Gallery.

Sliding Double Glazed Window and Door Frames

There are three frame profiles available

  • Frame 2 with 2 runners, 60mm profile depth
  • Frame 3 with 2 runners, and a flyscreen runner, 88mm profile depth
  • Frame 1, for fixed double glazing.

The frame members are made from the same profile. They are mitre cut and welded together for a stronger joint.
Aluminium or stainless steel rails are fitted to the runners of the frame profile, on which the sashes slide to open and close horizontally.

Double Glazing Sliding System Features

Sliding Double Glazed Window and Door Sashes.
  There are two sash profiles: one for double glazed windows and one for double glazed doors. All sashes can be fitted with seal 5x6mm, which provides optimum air, water and sound tightness.
The sash profile has a depth of 41mm, which allows both single and double glazing of glass thickness up to 20mm.
   
Reinforcement within Sliding Double Glazed Windows and Doors.
  The reinforcement chambers of the profiles are designed to provide optimal reinforcement to fulfil static requirements even for large window and door elements. The galvanised steel or aluminium profiles are inserted into the PVC profiles and secured with screws at specified intervals to provide maximum structural integrity to the double glazed window or door.
   
Sliding Sash Double Glazed Window and Door Interlock.
  When the sashes are at closed position, the interlock profiles overlap each other. Optimal sealing is ensured with the addition of two rows of brush seal that attached to the interlock profiles..
   
Sliding Sash Double Glazed Windows and Doors Filler Piece.
  The filler pieces fitted with brush seal provide optimum resistance to driving rain and also prevents the sash from being lifted out of the frame once the installation is completed..

The total cost of delivery is directly related to the sizes and number of double glazing items in your order. If any of your double glazed windows or doors exceed a certain level in either height or width, we must use a bigger truck, which will raise the cost of delivery, even if you have only a single double glzing item. The first delivery level is 4m wide; the second delivery level is 6m wide. Of course, we always stack the items in a most efficient way to save space.   Read more on double glazed sizes and dimentions

 
     
 

BASIX Compliance

 

With greater concerns about the environmentally detrimental methods and materials of traditional building practices, the government introduced special measures to minimise the long term impact on the environment. By using our products in your home, you will improve the rating of your home, because double glazing rates higher than single glazing in analysis and pvc rates higher than aluminium in terms of thermal performance. In addtion, consider strategic placement of windows and doors to maximise natural light but limit the exposure to midday summer sun, by utilising shade from nearby trees, other buidings, orientation, area and other factors.   More info on double glazed basix compliance

 
     
 

Toughened Glass

 

Also known as tempered glass, it is a type of safety glass that has increased strength and will usually shatter in small, square pieces when broken. It is used when strength, thermal resistance and safety are important considerations. At home you are likely to find toughened glass in the shower and sliding glass patio doors. For commercial structures, it is used in unframed assemblies such as frameless doors, structurally loaded applications and where there is a danger of human impact. Toughened glass is typically four to six times the strength of annealed glass.   Greater detail on double glazed toughened glass can be found here

 
     
 

Laminated Glass

 

Is a sandwich made of one thin layer of plastic Poly Vinyl Butyral between two or more sheets of glass. The PVB sticks with the glass, forms chemical as well as mechanical bonds. When laminated with annealed glass, the layer maintains the geometric integrity of the pane in case of breakage.
Also, it gives acoustic insulation as well as providing protection against damage caused due to UV radiation because it cuts almost 99% of UV radiation present in the sunlight.   More info on double glazed laminated glass

Sealing

 

Many people have the impression that all silicone gels on the market are the same, but we have found that their properties and, therefore, suitability varies dramatically. Generally, the descriptions of silicone offer little information as to the correct grade and type for a given application, and because of performance variability, there is no one type of silicone sealant that should be used for everything. Using the incorrect silicone or improper use may cause joint failure, contamination of surfaces because of poor application, excessive movement in the sealed joint.   Examine all the facts on double glazed sealing page

 
     
 

Low Maintenace

 

Upvc is the ideal frame material due to its inherent qualities of resistance to corrosion, fire, water, and sunlight. Apart from the most obvious applications in coastal areas where salt destroys the appearance and function of aluminium windows, while wooden windows must be specially treated with chemicals or paint, upvc frames have also been used in commercial and industrial applications and in areas of high pollution or for high impact winds. In addition, the upvc composition includes ultra-violet components, which reflect the sunlight and resist damage. The profile will not warp because it contains aluminium or steel reinforcement and wont need to be repainted, chemically treated, polished or cleaned. However, cleaning may be required for glass, intermittently, as desired, which will be necessary regardless of the frame material used. Our upvc Double Glazed Windows and Doors are ideal for the get and forget consumer! The low maintenance factor of upvc windows and doors exceeds that of any other frame material, saves your time and energy for the important things in life!   A complete guide for double glazed low maintenace can be found here

 
     
 

Handling and Storage

 

After the double glazed windows are delivered to your home or the construction site, ideally they should be installed as soon as possible, to minimise the risk of accidental damage. However, we understand that this may not be practical if there are other renovation or construction work being completed - in this case, it is best to store the double glazed window/ door frames and glass separately and in an area with limited access, so that the upvc window frames and insulated glass units experience the least movement possible.   Extra information about double glazed handling and storage can be found here

 
     
 

Float Glass

 

Is the most cost effective option because the features of this type of glass are rather basic. Float glass refers to a completely flat plane of clear glass. The term float is derived from the production method, and this type of glass is also often referred to as flat glass.   For more information double glazed float glass
