PS128 Aluminium Lift and Slide Door Product Guide
The PS128 aluminium lift and slide door is a custom sliding glass door solution for wide openings between living rooms, patios, terraces and gardens. Choose a 2-panel, 3-panel or 4-panel aluminium sliding door layout to suit the opening. Slim aluminium profiles, panoramic glass and concealed hardware combine a clear architectural appearance with flexible multi-track sliding door configurations.

Multi Panel Sliding Doors for Wider Openings
Flexible 2-panel, 3-panel and 4-panel layouts
PS128 aluminium sliding patio doors use panels that move horizontally along tracks, avoiding the swing clearance of a hinged door. The usable opening depends on the number of moving and fixed panels, track arrangement and stacking position. Where a larger opening is required, select a suitable multi-track aluminium sliding door layout and confirm its clear opening dimension.
Indoor and outdoor living
A large sliding glass door can connect a living room with a garden or terrace, while a partial opening provides day-to-day ventilation. For villa sliding doors, terrace doors and garden-facing aluminium doors, the PS128 lift and slide system supports flexible access for entertaining and circulation. The selected layout determines how much of the glass facade can open.

Values and inequality signs are reproduced from the original catalogue. Performance varies with dimensions, glass and configuration; the catalogue does not state a unit for K. Confirm the applicable test conditions and project specification before ordering. The 600 kg figure is a system maximum, not a load rating for every hardware and panel combination.
72 mm and 84 mm aluminium door sash profiles
The 72 mm regular sash prioritises a slim appearance. The reinforced 84 mm special sash is intended for projects that require assessment of larger panel loads and stability. A 32 mm narrow interlock is compatible with the two sash options according to configuration, with reinforcement or screen variants.

Concealed hardware and lift-and-slide operation
The PS128 sliding glass door system covers accessory slots and conceals outer-frame locking components for a cleaner open-panel appearance. The original system supports sliding or lift-and-slide hardware arrangements. A lift-and-slide aluminium door uses handle-controlled lifting and sliding hardware; the brand, load class, locks and operating method are specified for each order.
Corner and interlock sealing design
High-strength nylon provides support in the corner sealing components, while flexible silicone helps the seals conform to the profiles. Upper and lower interlock plugs and track seals support sealing continuity in the aluminium patio door. Final performance also depends on glazing, installation accuracy, track selection and drainage.
Double Track Triple Track and Multi Track Door Layouts
The original PS128 aluminium door drawings include double-track, triple-track, multi-track and corner arrangements, with sliding and lift-and-slide options. All drawings are viewed from indoors. Arrows identify movement; fixed areas are confirmed in the selected production drawing.
A two-panel sliding door suits many conventional openings. Three-panel sliding doors and four-panel sliding doors offer additional layout choices for wider facades. Suitable multi-track stacking can increase the clear opening, but does not imply that every panel disappears into a wall or that 100% of the opening is clear. Confirm tracks, active panels, stacking and usable passage width.

Assess the PS128 aluminium lift and slide door when larger circulation openings and indoor-outdoor connections are priorities. Assess the PS118 aluminium compression sliding window when a large fixed view pane with one sliding ventilation sash is sufficient. For coastal, exposed, high-rise or directly rain-exposed projects, verify structural and tested performance requirements for the actual installation.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does a three-panel door always open wider than two panels?
No. Compare the active panel count, track configuration and clear opening dimensions.
Can the track be flush with the floor?
An embedded sliding door track requires early coordination of finished floor level, recess depth, waterproofing and drainage.
Does the 600 kg figure apply to every sliding door?
No. Glass weight, sash dimensions, hardware load rating and installation conditions must be assessed together.
Custom Aluminium Sliding Door Ordering Guide
1 Measure the opening
Provide opening width, height and installation photographs. State whether measurements describe the rough opening or finished door. Include the finished floor level if flooring is incomplete.
2 Confirm the sliding door layout
Specify two, three or four panels, the indoor viewing direction, left or right movement, fixed and sliding panels, number of tracks and required clear passage width.
3 Choose profiles and glazing
Confirm the 72 mm or 84 mm sash option, glass build-up, safety glazing requirements, finish and colour. Translate thermal, solar-control and acoustic needs into verified glass and system specifications.
4 Choose tracks and hardware
Confirm low, high or embedded tracks, hardware brand and load rating, handles, locks, screen options and drainage. Brands illustrated in the catalogue are not all included as standard.
5 Approve drawings and quotation
Check panel divisions, glass dimensions, opening direction, finish, accessories, packaging, installation responsibilities and lead time before production. Include special requirements in the approved order.
Use and Maintenance
Keep aluminium sliding door tracks and drainage outlets clear. Follow the specified hardware maintenance instructions. Unlock the door and select the correct handle position before moving the panel; avoid glass impacts and never force an obstructed sash.
