Heat Strengthened Glass vs. Tempered Glass
Tilt Slide Patio doors are beautiful, safe and tight
Our tilt-slide patio doors often referred to as tilt and slide doors, are also another terrific variation of our patio doors. The design and function of our tilt-slide patio door is comparable to the sliding door of a mini-van insomuch that they work very much the same way. Our door is encased in its frame when closed; and when open, it gently disengages from the frame for a small measure and like the mini-van; it slides to the side effortlessly for passage.
Tilt-Slide Patio Doors – Closed Mode
When in closed mode the door is automatically aligned back into the neutral position by the technologically engineered hardware. Once closed, the handle can be turned to either lock the door secure or to tilt the door in for safe and secure ventilation; all while still keeping the door in a firmly held “closed” position.
It is a much more efficient and secure choice than its domestic counterpart because our tilt and slide patio doors not only close as tightly and securely as a swing door, its rollers never collect dust, debris or any other unwanted matter because they are located on the interior of the door.
