S.10 All Aluminum Lift & Slide System

The S.10 system is custom made to order with a large variety of options available.

System Overview: This Lift and Slide door system has been specifically engineered for maximum weather tightness, security and performance.

Maximum Panel Height: Up to 14 feet or up to 20 feet with a true divider.

Maximum Panel Width: Up to 10 feet.

Panel Weight: Approximately 7 to 8 lbs/sqft depending on overall panel size.

Number of Panels: Countless panel groups can be built.

Profiles: Manufactured from 6063-T5 extruded aluminum with a profile thickness of 2 3/4″ allowing for oversized panels.

System Configurations Available: Almost any size and shape of opening can be accommodated. Lift and Slide door systems can pocket to left or right, and can stack to left and/or right. 45 and 90 degree no-post configurations are available, as well as panoramic with a radius of minimum 144″.

Glazing: Clear Low-E insulated is the standard. Various types of glass and other materials at a thickness of up to 1 7/8″ may be used. Optional integrated blinds are available.

Weather-stripping: The entire Lift and Slide door system has specially designed EPDM V-type gaskets and dense felt brushes to create a totally closed weather sealed system.

Bottom Track Options:

All weight is carried on the bottom track, the top track serves as a guide.

Trench Depth: Min. 2 1/2″

• ADA Compliant Standard Track. Recessed into sub-floor to ensure the smoothest possible operation. The finished floor is laid in between tracks leaving only a 3/16″ rail exposed. A virtually unobstructed threshold from the interior to the exterior area for a “barefoot” friendly passage.
• ADA Compliant Track with drainage. In addition to the above features, this track has a weep channel for increased security against water infiltration. Panda holds a patent for the drainage technology used in this track.

Trench Depth: Min. 1 1/4″

• ADA Compliant 1 1/4″ in track. Recessed into sub-floor to ensure the smoothest possible operation, this track features a shallower recess than the two tracks mentioned above and is leveled with stack shims instead of all-threads. The finished floor is laid in between tracks leaving only a 3/16″ rail exposed. A virtually unobstructed threshold from the interior to the exterior area for a “barefoot” friendly passage.
• ADA Compliant 1 1/4″ in track with drainage. In addition to the features mentioned for the previous track, this one has a weep channel for increased security against water infiltration. Panda holds a patent for the drainage technology used in this track.

Trench Depth: Mounts on floor

• ADA Compliant Surface Track. It is used in situations where recessing is not possible. This low 3/16″ track mounts directly to the finished floor. For best operation, floor must be smooth and level.

Header Track:

• The header track features adjustable shims from 1/2 ″ to 1″ depending on type of bottom track and finished floor thickness.
• The header track widths are 4″ for one panel, 7″ for two panels, 10″ for three panels, and 13″ for four panels approximately.  Trench width should be taken into account when planning rough header construction.
