How terrace glazing differs from a balcony
Openings on a terrace or veranda are wider and taller than on a balcony and are often open at the top. So the maximum size of the system, the weight of a panel and whether the terrace is needed in winter all matter. For a summer terrace a sliding system with tempered glass is enough; if the veranda becomes part of the house, you need a thermally broken system; if there is no roof, a winter garden or pergola is added to the glazing.
Panoramic sliding glazing
The Kanaat sliding system with 3 or 5 tracks and 10 mm tempered glass is made up to 3100 mm high with panels up to 1100 mm wide, with or without a threshold. Kanaat Lux with 4+20+4 or 6+16+6 double glazing reaches 3500 mm with a 1400 mm panel width, allows corners to open and has its own lock. Kanaat Eco with 4+12+4 double glazing goes up to 3000 mm: an economical option with adjustable bottom rollers. The aluminium Asash RS70, 70 mm deep, is built on 2, 3 or 4 tracks.
An insulated veranda: thermally broken systems
If the veranda will be a living room all year round, you need a system with a thermal break. Asash RST116 (116 mm) is designed for panoramic terrace exits and villas, with double glazing, multi-point locking and stainless tracks. The Profilati AKS 122 Hebeschiebe lift-and-slide system lifts the sash before it slides, so a sash of up to 400 kg is easy to move; it takes glass units up to 4-36-4 mm. Profilati AS82 opens with 2, 3 or 4 sashes and suits large terrace exits.
Guillotine: glass that drops down
The Kanaat guillotine system moves vertically and is remote-controlled (Somfy, Mosen motor). It is split into three parts: the bottom one is fixed and the two upper ones rise and lower. When open, the bottom section stays and works as a railing, so the system is fitted on terraces, balconies and outdoor restaurant areas. Height and panel width are 3000-3500 mm, the glass unit is 4×12×4 tempered, and the profile comes in any colour.
A roof over the terrace: winter garden, pergola, tent
The Kanaat winter garden is an aluminium structure with a glass roof: one side is fixed to the house wall and rainwater runs off through hidden channels. On the Kanaat bioclimatic pergola the louvred roof opens by remote and rotates to any angle, there is LED lighting, and the sides can be closed with sliding glazing, a guillotine or a folding system. On the Profilati Diamond the louvres are turned by an electric motor. The pergola tent folds its fabric to one side and suits large café and hotel areas. The Asash SKY65 glass roof is fitted over a terrace, atrium or pool.
Curved balconies and bay windows
We glaze rounded balconies and bay windows. These need a custom survey, and we choose the system for the shape during the free measurement. For curved glazing the catalogue includes Altis Glass bent glass with radii from 1300 to 17 000 mm. Frameless folding systems and rounded balconies are covered in detail in a separate guide.
