The S70 RPT series of aluminium folding doors systems is notable for being specially reinforced, with thermal break and triple sealing gasket. Perfect for outdoor areas with adverse weather conditions and strong winds.
The thermal break in this bi-fold door series offers thermal insulation values ??(Uw) of up to 2.6 W/m²K.
It can incorporate standard handles, business-type handles or three-point bolt locks. Accessories are available in white, black and, on demand, in the same colours as the profiles. See available fittings and accessories.
The S70 RPT bi-fold door profiles can be lacquered in the colours of the RAL Classic range, or given an anodised finish or an imitation-wood effect. Choose the finish for your bi-fold doors.
Insulating glass
Insulating glass, also known as double glazing, multiple glazing, or Climalit (trademark), consists of two or more glass sheets separated by a space that prevents any contact between the glass.
The inner space between the glass sheets is usually filled with dry air or other inert gas, but it is also possible to form a vacuum, thus improving their performance. In any case, the spaces are hermetically sealed to prevent air flow and the entry of pollutants.
There are also insulating glasses with special 'very low emissivity' treatments, a transparent metal coating on the inner surface, which provides 50% more insulation than conventional double glazing.
Insulating glass can be combined with other solar control functions, low emissivity, etc.
Insulating glass properties.
If there is a positive aspect to double glazing compared to other glass models, it is the possibility of creating customised glass according to the performance required. Therefore, this type of glass can incorporate heat, acoustic and safety insulation features.
For example: a product with highly beneficial features can be achieved by combining an insulating glass with a low-emissivity and solar control glass all in the same panel, even adding a laminate or acoustic laminate.
In addition, thanks to its space this glass offers very low thermal transmittance and therefore great thermal insulation, which will provide air conditioning savings of over 50%.
Finally, it must be noted that the gas contained in the space will also greatly influence the properties of the glass.
For example: the main objective of the SF6 is to improve the acoustic insulation by reducing approximately 3 dB. Argon, on the other hand, has a low heat conductivity, lower than that of air, which provides greater thermal insulation (reduction of the U value by more than 0.3 W/m²). On occasions, a mixture of two of these gasses is used to achieve specific properties.
Chamber size and energy transmittance.
The thermal transmittance (U-value) in a glass sheet has an inverse relationship to its thickness. The higher the interlayer profile (and therefore the greater the distance between the glass sheets), the lower the radiation transmission (the U-value decreases).
Please note: in spaces greater than 15-18 mm, the air currents created inside them increase energy transmission, so the generic rule referred to here does not apply.
Sandwich panel
Our roofs enable the installation of totally opaque and highly resistant aluminium plates or sandwich panels. These plates are composed of three sheets: thermo-lacquered aluminium sheets with different finishes (RAL coatings, anodised or wood) that are placed on the inside and outside, and an extruded polystyrene core of great resistance to compression that provides excellent thermal insulation.
Sandwich panel properties.
Lightweight structure with high impact resistance, manufactured in different thicknesses according to insulation needs. It also comes in a great variety of finishes, although light colours on the outside are always recommended for greater durability.
Perfect for applications in which a totally opaque enclosure is required, blocking out incoming light when it is closed. Once the system is opened, light is allowed back in.
