Modern Aluminum Sliding Door for Kitchen

Product Overview

This innovative sliding system solves this through a 6063-T5 aluminum frame with slim sightlines and smooth operation, creating seamless transitions between kitchens and adjacent living areas while maximizing usable space. Unlike wooden alternatives prone to warping in humid kitchen environments, these aluminum doors resist moisture, heat, and daily wear—maintaining like-new appearance for decades. The large glass panels maximize natural light penetration, reducing artificial lighting needs by 40% during daytime hours.

Product Features

Space-Efficient Design: Requires only 100mm clearance for full operation, saving up to 1.5m² of floor space compared to swinging doors. Track system allows panels to stack completely, creating unobstructed openings up to 4m wide.

Durable Construction: 1.4mm thick aluminum profiles with 120μm powder coating (AAMA 2605 compliant) resist grease, steam, and cleaning chemicals, maintaining appearance through 5,000+ cleaning cycles.

Optimal Glass Solutions: 5mm tempered safety glass with optional low-e coating reduces heat transfer by 55% between kitchen and living areas. Frosted or patterned glass options provide privacy without sacrificing light.

Smooth Operation: Heavy-duty ball-bearing rollers with 150kg load capacity per panel ensure effortless sliding with <6N force required, even after 50,000 cycles of operation. Soft-close mechanism prevents slamming.

Product Applications

Open-Concept Homes: Creates flexible zones between kitchens and dining/living areas that can be closed off for privacy or opened for entertaining, supporting modern lifestyle needs.

Small Kitchens: Maximizes usable space in compact layouts, with sliding operation eliminating the need for door swing clearance that typically wastes 0.5-1m².

Indoor-Outdoor Flow: Connects kitchens to patios or gardens with weather-resistant designs that withstand temperature fluctuations and moisture exposure.

Renovation Projects: Easy retrofitting into existing openings with minimal structural modification, often installable in a single day with standard tools.
