• Maximum Panel Height: Up to 12 feet.

• Profiles: The durable profiles are made of 6063-T5 extruded aluminum thermally broken using a high quality polyamide iso-bar. The panel frame is a slim 3 1/4″ wide and 2″ thick which provides a maximum glass to frame ratio for a large visible glass area.

A unique option in this system is 1 1/2″ insulated glass with automated blinds between the glass. Other options include frosted or tinted glass, argon or krypton fill, and SDLs or TDLs may also be integrated for a custom look.

Accessories

• All gaskets are made of EPDM rubber for weather tolerance and longevity.

• Optional stainless steel screws and bolts are available for coastal regions where excessive corrosion is a concern.

• A multi-point locking system option is available for better intrusion resistance.

Bottom Track Options

• ADA Compliant Standard Track. This track is available in 1 1/2″ and 2″ track heights. It can be either surface mounted on the finish floor or set directly on the subfloor for an even, recessed finish. It has the ability to weep water away which makes it the most weather tight of all available track types. Ideal for window applications.

• ADA Compliant 1 1/4″ in track. Recessed into sub-floor to ensure the smoothest possible operation, this track features a shallower recess and is leveled with stack shims instead of all-threads.

• ADA Compliant 1 1/4″ in track with drainage. This track features a weep channel for increased security against water infiltration. Panda holds a patent for the drainage technology used in this track.

• ADA Compliant Recessed Track. Recessed into sub-floor to ensure the smoothest possible operation. The finished floor is laid between tracks leaving only a 3/16″ rail exposed for a virtually unobstructed threshold from the interior to the exterior area. This track has a minimum trench depth of 2 1/2″. For minimum depth installation, sub-floor must be smooth and level.

• ADA Compliant Recessed Track with drainage. In addition to the previous mentioned 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.

Header Track:

• The header track features adjustable shims of approximately 1/2 ″ depending on type of bottom track and type of sill finish.
