Aluminium sliding doors with a narrow mullion are a modern alternative to traditional sliding doors. Strong and sturdy, but slim aluminium frames designed to ‘support’ large panes of glass provide a better view and a very modern look.
What does an aluminium sliding door with a narrow mullion look like?
The design of the narrow mullion sliding door is based on creating a product with a minimal amount of visible aluminium. The result is a virtually frameless sliding door that fits perfectly into modern buildings. At the same time, these doors naturally provide full functionality, security and weather resistance.
Advantages of aluminium sliding doors with a narrow mullion
Maximisation of natural light
This is undeniably the biggest advantage of the aluminium sliding door with narrow mullion. The large glass panes, combined with the slim frame, allow plenty of natural light to enter the room. They brighten it up and make the room appear larger and warmer.
Very good thermal insulation
Aluminium sliding doors with a narrow mullion are distinguished by their very good thermal properties, making them extremely energy-efficient. They thus help to reduce the rate of heat transfer in and out of the house, keeping the temperature lower in summer and warmer in winter, which in turn results in lower energy bills.
Durability and robustness
Aluminium sliding doors are very durable, lightweight, strong and ductile. This type of metal does not corrode and is not susceptible to deformation due to thermal changes.
Modern design
Aluminium sliding doors with a narrow mullion also have a modern, designer look. Their great advantage is the possibility of creating unusual interiors and attractive surfaces.
