Tracking Market Demand

A triple-track option is coming soon for the SheerGlide inline aluminium patio door range. A four-pane option has been added already and is available to order now.

The move comes after demand for greater choice from fabricators, installers and homeowners.

SheerGlide benefits from the single component interlock developed by Sheerline’s in-house R&D team. It is this new in-built technology that enables it to breeze through both thermal and security testing.

Historically, inline sliders have struggled to convincingly achieve both accreditations, yet today they are essential due to new rules and regulations as well as demand from consumers. Whilst SheerGlide is the first product to showcase this technology, it will be used more widely in the future.

Differentials

Several design elements differentiate SheerGlide from other inline sliders including simplified manufacturing. There are fewer components compared to a traditional slider and there is a kit option as well.

When customers order a kit, they receive a box that contains everything they need. It’s all in the box: locks, fixings, rollers and all the lengths are prepped and packed ready to go. 5-day lead times are offered as standard across bar length and kits.

Popular addition

Ben Hartshorn, Sheerline’s technical and design director, said: “SheerGlide is proving to be a popular addition to our fully suited range. The thermals and security definitely help it to stand out. So does our in-house offering.

“The majority of orders have been powder coated, however, we’ve started receiving more woodgrain foil requests. This highlights how useful this in-house service is as it gives installers another option when they need to match new and existing products.”

Woodgrain foiling is offered by Sheerline on 10-day lead times for stocked colours.
