The variant of the Hi-Finity sliding door system was tested to a size of 3.1 metres wide and 3.05 metres high, maximising the height achievable at the independent test centre. The scale of testing ensures that the Hi-Finity product can provide large transparent walls and uninterrupted panoramas with a light and sleek appearance whilst offering maximum security levels.

Rebecca Cope, Marketing Manager at Reynaers, said: ‘‘Our Hi-Finity sliding door has created some of our most elite projects. Security is a growing concern amongst many, especially when large areas of the home are on show through large glass panes. This product ensures optimum safety and peace of mind for our clients.’’

The sliding door system has been tested at dedicated façade engineering consultants, Wintech, who are accredited by the United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) using state-of-the-art testing facilities.

Wintech tested on a manually operating Hi-Finity sliding door consisting of one fixed pane and one sliding pane with an electric locking system. It is the first bonded door of its type to be tested to the PAS 24:2016 security standard.

PAS 24:2016 is the latest test method used for the enhanced security performance of windows and doors. The product is intended to resist attacks linked with casual or opportunistic burglars. The test is also required as part of the prestigious Secured By Design accreditation which Reynaers is in the process of finalising for the Hi-Finity sliding door.

The extreme strength of the system allows for large panes of glass weighing up to 750 kilograms and measuring up to three and a half metres.

Ideal for low-energy contemporary architecture, the system can be installed in both residential and commercial projects. The design utilises an ergonomically designed handle and concealed locking system as well as the opportunity to create floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall glass.
