The AA®3572 Lift/Slide Door is a solution for projects that demand the highest levels of thermal and weathering performance.

The AA®3572 thermally insulated system delivers optimum levels of quality and performance with the lift/slide technology providing effortless operation enabling maximum panel sizes up to 3m x 3m with maximum weights up to 400kg.

Robust profiles with high insulation values enable large areas of glass for freedom of design. The option of slim meeting stiles allow the system to remain unobtrusive. As a sliding system, it is an ideal space saving solution where safety is a consideration and projecting swing doors are undesirable.

The double EPDM gasket with continuous rebate provides exceptional weathering performance and high levels of sound reduction.

Construction

Two track and three track lifting/sliding system. The AA®3572 is a multi-chamber thermally efficient system depending on construction type with 1, 2 or 3 insulation zones and is manufactured from high quality aluminium 6063T6 alloys in accordance with BN EN 12020.

Thermal Performance*

The AA®3572 Lift/Slide Door achieves a Double Glazed U-value of 1.4 W/m²K and a Triple Glazed U-value of 0.83 W/m²K.

* U-values based on 2 pane assembly measuring 2180mm x 2350mm (BS EN:10077) using 1.1 W/m²K double glazing or 0.6 W/m²K triple glazing with Swisspacer V bar.

Acoustics**

The AA®3572 Door is independently tested at Vinci to BS EN ISO 10140-2: 2010 R_w (C:Ctr) = 40 (-1-3).

** Full test reports are available from the Technical Services Department at Runcorn.

Security***

The AA®3572 Lift/Slide Door has been independently tested to PAS 24:2016 and compliance depends on the door configuration.

*** Does not refer to standard hardware, security hardware required and compliance depends on door configuration.
