Engineering
Opens on an induction signalThe leaves run on a head track and part when the sensing unit reads an approach, so a wide glass front opens without a hand and the entrance clears without a swing.
A glass wall until it movesFull-height clear leaves in a slim aluminium mullion frame read as a single glazed wall when the door is shut, which keeps the frontage light and the sight line into the room open.
6063-T5 primary aluminiumThe door range is extruded in 6063-T5 primary aluminium, the grade the catalogue names across the window and door lines and selects for toughness, strength and resistance to cracking.
Controls at the openingThe catalogue scene shows both parts of the control set: a sensing unit recessed into the head rail above the glass, and a wall panel fitted beside the frame for the door to be driven by hand.
Specifying for heat and value
African projects are usually specified against two drivers: heat, and the total landed cost of the glazing line. Single-glass build-ups cut weight and freight in the container; insulating units step in where comfort or acoustics are required. Both run on the same frame, so the build-up is a line on the quotation, not a different product.
Wall thickness and finish are the second lever. The 6063-T5 sections in the range are extruded in-house, and the anodised and thermal-transfer finish lines are the standard shortlist.
Full-container loading
The container is the unit of supply: a full box of modules for one phase, packed upright with edge protection, with the loading plan drawn against your opening schedule.
Transit to the port of discharge, and the documentation for clearing, travel with the shipment. Transit times are confirmed per route at quotation.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Do you ship to West and East Africa?
Yes. Full-container loading is the standard supply unit, and the loading plan for your opening schedule comes with the quotation.
Can we mix single and insulating glass in one container?
Yes. The glazing build-up is specified per opening on the schedule, so one container can carry both configurations; the mix is confirmed in the loading plan.
What is the electric responsive door?
It is an automatic sliding system in the Adam Alux door range: full-height glass leaves on a head track that open on an induction signal, shown in the catalogue at an office entrance.
How does the door open?
The leaves slide sideways on the head rail once the sensing unit reads an approach, so the opening clears with no swing. The catalogue scene shows the head-rail sensing unit and a wall control panel beside the frame.
