/ AN XXL SLIDER

GENEROUSLY-SIZED OPENINGS TO MEET YOUR

PROJECT’S REQUIREMENTS

GALÈNE is a 126 mm module thermal break patio door

featuring a lift and slide system and whose design has
been optimised for use in large openings up to 10 m
wide.

EASY OF MOVEMENT

The lift and slide mechanism allows the guiding wheels

to retract when the leaf is closed. This roller track
system ensures smooth movement and easy operation
despite the exceptional size of the leaves. The design of
the pull handle allows for excellent grip.
A version without a thermal break is also available
using the same configurations for geographical areas
that do not have the same thermal constraints.

GALÈNE KEY FEATURES
/ PANORAMIC SLIDING WINDOW
AND INNOVATIONS
LARGE DIMENSIONS
• Designed for the creation of openings with large
dimensions for more natural light.
• Dimensions up to 5.00 m x 2.5 m in frames with
two leaves with a maximum weight of 300 kg per
leaf.
ACOUSTIC PERFORMANCE
• In urban environments, road noise corresponds
to an average level of 60 decibels.
• Thanks to these glazed infills, Galène is able to
dramatically reduce urban noise.
ACCESSIBILITY AND EASE OF USE
• A lifting system ensures that the large leaves are
easy to move and slide smoothly.
• A handle offering a good grip and ease of
movement.
LOCKING MECHANISMS
• 2-,3- or 4-point locking systems activated by a
special handle (single or double).
• Half-open position provides ventilation whilst
ensuring that the frame is still secure.

AND SECURITY

• Symmetrical glazed infills thanks to a mitre-cut The lift and slide system facilitates the safe
peripheral opening frame. movement of the leaves which may each weigh up
• Technical” glazing combining high levels of to 300 kg and measure up to 2.50 metres high by
thermal, acoustic and security performance. 2.50 metres wide.
• Possibility of glazing with an integrated blind for
solar protection. Security can be reinforced by the implementation
up to 39 mm
of a multipoint locking system activated by a
specially-designed handle. In all cases, this
remains very easy to use, thanks, in particular, to
the well-designed profile combined with the high
leverage. The operation of the GALENE slider
has received level 4 classification in accordance
with the standard EN 1191.2001, following 20,000
opening and closing test cycles.
