Minimal-Frame Glazing
Frameless, minimal-frame glazing opens up new possibilities and meets the most exacting standards of exclusive architectural design.
Aesthetics and functionality The threshold-free installation of our systems enables forward-looking living while enhancing both visual appeal and everyday comfort. Special ball bearings and stainless-steel axles in sealed SKF/RMB housings deliver uniquely smooth operation. A sliding door with a total weight of 180 kg can be moved with less than 20 Nm (2 kg) of force. If desired, the glass panels can also be operated electrically. Reduction to the maximum The glazing is constructed using thermally broken, lightweight metal system profiles. The extruded profiles, made from a corrosion-resistant aluminum alloy (Al, Si, Mg 0.5), are thermally insulated with rolled-in polyamide strips. Finish options include natural anodizing, a brushed stainless-steel appearance, or powder coating in colors from the RAL, NCS, or anthracite metallic mica ranges.
Uncompromising simplicity for the most exacting standards Thanks to their slender, modular design, our glazing systems are equally suited to new construction and remodeling, to large or small spans, and to exterior façades or interiors. Even numerous exceptionally large sliding panels can be incorporated—coordinated with one another, disappearing silently into a partition wall, or sliding away from a corner without a post. Even when the system is closed, the view from the light-filled room out to nature remains unobstructed. The floor track and perimeter frame profiles can be fully recessed into the floor and ceiling and into the walls at the sides. Innovative minimalist windows – Swiss made FineLine is the next generation of minimal-frame glazing. It is the world’s first minimal-frame glazing system built to the Minergie standard, with the slimmest sightlines and unrivaled performance values. The use of highly insulating glass with a Ug-value of 0.5 W/m2k now makes it possible to meet a wide variety of needs for discerning individuals seeking the highest standards of architectural excellence. The system achieves outstanding sound-insulation values. Impact-resistant and bullet-resistant glazing can also be incorporated. Even very large sliding windows deliver excellent operating performance. Experience and expertise FineLine window systems are manufactured by specialists using state-of-the-art technology and the finest traditions of craftsmanship. Yet even the best technology is of little value without the right people—people who truly understand their craft. Practical implementation Involve us in the planning process at an early stage. The installation of frameless glazing must be taken into account in the structural design. We will be pleased to advise you on creating the right conditions. The premium window for architecture in its purest form Quality, design, and passion come together in our slender-framed windows for exceptional requirements.
Security at the highest level FineLine provides optimum protection through monitored multipoint locking systems combined with appropriately specified laminated glass connected to an alarm system or offering bullet resistance.
