Engineering
A broader surroundThe wide-frame leaf carries more aluminium around the glass than the slim and medium-narrow lines, so the door reads as a solid, weighted panel on the wall.
Five finishes, one deep redThe set runs from two quiet neutrals through a metallic gold to a deep red sandstone, which the catalogue shows on a full leaf in a living room.
6063-T5 primary aluminiumThe leaf is extruded from 6063-T5 primary aluminium, the alloy used across our window and door lines, valued for strength and for resistance to corrosion and wear.
Double-glazed and ratedThe glazing is a double-glazed insulating unit, rated in the catalogue for sound and heat, and the lever handle and lock set is fitted in a silver finish.
What US projects require
Glazing rules tighten in the high-velocity hurricane zones: the code requires impact-rated glazing and defined structural performance on the exterior envelope, and most spec writers work from the ASTM and Florida building code framework as the reference point. In practice the glazing build-up, the frame section and the hardware have to be stated on the quotation, line by line, against your zone and wind-borne debris category.
Adam Alux does not hold US test certifications. The bridge is the specification process: send the zone, the debris category and the opening schedule, and the glazing build-up, frame section and hardware layout come back confirmed against that project at quotation, with a finished test unit available before production.
Shipping to US ports
Modules ship in export-standard containers sized around the opening: glazed units travel upright with corner and edge protection for the trans-Pacific line. The loading plan, including modules per container for your mix, comes with the quotation, because it depends on frame depth and glass build-up rather than a fixed table.
Freight and port handling are confirmed per shipment, and transit time is quoted at order. Packing list and conformity documentation travel with the container.
