The Gaulhofer tilt and slide patio door is the most innovative and architecturally-correct sliding patio door on the market today. Not only does it have the tilt option of our other units but it was also designed with strict insulation guidelines in mind.
When in the closed position, a multipoint locking system pulls the operable sashes tight against a triple weather strip system, pulling it flat into the same plane as the adjoined fixed windows. When the handle on the first opening sash is turned, the patio door tilts inward at the top. Further rotation of the lever kicks the bottom of the patio door inward, allowing it to be pushed over the fixed window next to it. The second sash functions the same way creating an opening width over 8’.
The functionality and ease of operation will amaze generations to come.
