Product Description
Strong design enables the IS.14 Impact Lift & Slide to endure rigorous hurricane and large missile impact testing standards, including systems of up to 5′ wide and 12′ tall.
Designed for hurricane wind and water condition, this Impact Lift and Slide system has been specifically engineered for maximum weather tightness, security and performance.
Features
The IS.14 Impact Lift & Slide System is custom made to order with a large variety of options available.
-
System Overview: Designed to comply with stringent Florida Building Codes TAS 201; TAS 202; and TAS 203; and U.S. building regulations from wind-borne debris areas outside the high velocity hurricane zone (HVHZ), the IS.14 features superior components that can endure large missile and hurricane impact. This system permits oversized panels to withstand Category 5 Hurricanes, tropical storms, high winds and driving rain, while standing up to coastal pressures such as corrosion, humidity and salt.
-
Testing simulations made on the (IS.14) Impact Lift and Slide system by a third party company resulted in outstanding results with structural loads at 100 psf, water infiltration at 20 psf, and air infiltration at 1.57 psf for a large 5′ x 10’ system and even larger 5′ x 12’ model. With these results, Panda becomes the only manufacturer in the industry with the ability to craft large-sized panels while providing ultimate performance and weather protection.
-
Maximum Panel Height: Up to 14 feet or up to 20 feet with a true divider.
-
Maximum Panel Width: Up to 5 feet.
-
Panel Weight: Approximately 7 to 8 lbs/sqft depending on overall panel size.
-
Number of Panels: Countless panel groups can be built.
-
Profiles: Manufactured from 6063-T5 extruded aluminum with a profile thickness of 2 3/4″ allowing for oversized panels.
-
Rail & Stiles: Narrow 4 1/2” stile and rail profiles for maximum view and minimal obstruction.
-
System Configurations Available: Systems can pocket to left or right, and can stack to left and/or right. Straight, 45° and 90° zero-post corner configurations are available.
-
Glazing: Laminated impact resistant glass, either ½” monolithic or 1 3/8” double insulating glass. Optional integrated blinds are available.
-
Weather-stripping: The entire door system has specially designed EPDM V-type gaskets and dense felt brushes to create a totally closed weather sealed system.
Bottom Track Options
All weight is carried on the bottom track, the top track serves as a guide.
Trench Depth: Min. 2 1/2″
-
ADA Compliant Standard Track. Recessed into sub-floor to ensure the smoothest possible operation. The finished floor is laid in between tracks leaving only a 3/16″ rail exposed. A virtually unobstructed threshold from the interior to the exterior area for a “barefoot” friendly passage.
-
ADA Compliant Track with drainage. In addition to the above features, this track has a weep channel for increased security against water infiltration. Panda holds a patent for the drainage technology used in this track.
Trench Depth: Min. 1 1/4″
-
ADA Compliant 1 1/4″ in track. Recessed into sub-floor to ensure the smoothest possible operation, this track features a shallower recess than the two tracks mentioned above and is leveled with stack shims instead of all-threads. The finished floor is laid in between tracks leaving only a 3/16″ rail exposed. A virtually unobstructed threshold from the interior to the exterior area for a “barefoot” friendly passage.
-
ADA Compliant 1 1/4″ in track with drainage. In addition to the features mentioned for the previous track, this one has a weep channel for increased security against water infiltration. Panda holds a patent for the drainage technology used in this track.
Trench Depth: Mounts on floor
-
ADA Compliant Surface Track. It is used in situations where recessing is not possible. This low 3/16″ track mounts directly to the finished floor. For best operation, floor must be smooth and level.
Header Track
-
The header track features adjustable shims from 1/2 ″ to 1″ depending on type of bottom track and finished floor thickness.
-
The header track widths are 4″ for one panel, 7″ for two panels, 10″ for three panels, and 13″ for four panels approximately. Trench width should be taken into account when planning rough header construction.
