HSW60 - Single Track Aluminum Framed Sliding SystemTechnical Description
The HSW60 is a thermally broken, aluminum framed single track sliding system, designed to provide an opening glass wall or storefront with any custom panel size within the limitation of the Maximum Size Chart. Different panel widths are possible with additional tracks in the stacking bay for the different widths. Sliding panels convertible to incorporated swing entry/exit panel(s) are possible. An end panel can be a swing panel hinged to a side jamb. Swing panels are single acting but can be either inward or outward opening. Possible configurations and stacking bay options are virtually limitless.
Special Features of Nanawall HSW60 System
Incorporated Swing Entry/Exit Panel(s)
If desired, every other sliding panel can include an incorporated single acting swing panel. A pair of incorporated swing panels allows the possibility that either panel can be opened first. The conversion from swing door to sliding panel is quick and easy. Swing panels can open inward or outward.
Floor Track Optional
For certain applications, sills can be eliminated completely – providing seamless transition between two spaces. Locking rods in panels engage in adjustable floor sockets.
Multiple Stacking Options
The sliding storefront can be completely out-of-sight during business hours. The tracks can be laid out beyond the frame in a variety of configurations, and the stacking bays can be positioned anywhere along the track. The two carrier suspension system permits the use of track with right-angle turns and curves, allowing multiple options for space set-up and remote storage.
Multiple Space Set-up
Using the same panels with additional parallel and perpendicular tracks will expand or reduce heated or air conditioned spaces with ease and convenience.
Right Turns and Segmented Curved Walls
With an ingenious, variable angle astragal profile, systems can be supplied with any segmented angle between 0º and 90º between panels, allowing the designer to create completely open corners or bays.
Design Flexibility
Custom sizes of frame heights up to 9’10” (3000 mm) and panel widths up to 3’11” (1200 mm) are possible. Individual panels can be designed with different widths, glazing choices (insulated glass, laminated glass, etc.) and muntin layouts (horizontal mullions, SDLs, , solid panels, higher bottom rails, etc.).
Weather Resistant
The system is engineered to provide weather resistance, high structural performance, and resistance to dust infiltration.
Superior Thermal Break
Thermally broken with a 9/16” (14 mm) polyamide plastic reinforced with glass fibers. This thermal barrier provides increased strength, superior humidity control, improved acoustics, and energy savings.
Normal Traffic Entrance Doors that can Move Away
With its patent pending opening mechanism, the NanaWall HSW60 entrance doors have been engineered for “normal” traffic and have been tested to a million opening and closing cycles. Conversion from swing door to a sliding panel is easy.
Quickly Open or Close a Glass Wall
The two carrier suspension allows each single panel to be easily slid. The 60° and 90° switches provide flexibility and ease in panel stacking
Virtually Unlimited Number of Normal Traffic Entrance Doors that can Move Away
Any number of swing panels that can be converted to sliding panels and vice versa can be designed into the system. Single acting doors can be either inswing or outswing. Pairs of swing doors are also possible.
Space Management
Using the same panels with additional parallel and perpendicular tracks makes it possible to expand or reduce heated or air conditioned spaces with ease and convenience.
Common Features of Nanawall Aluminum Sliding System
Engineered, Tested System from a Single Source Supplier
The NanaWall has been engineered for superior performance. Some units have been independently tested for air and water penetration resistance, structural deflection, thermal performance and forced entry.
Panels Can Be Taken Out of the Plane of the Opening
The storefront can be completely out of site during business hours. The tracks can be laid out beyond the frame of the opening in a variety of configurations. The stacking bays can be positioned anywhere along the track which makes remote storage possible.
Single Track, Top Hung Systems
When closed, all panels are on a single track, eliminating the need for bulky multi tracks and hence, thick walls.
Virtually Unlimited Number of Panels
The number of panels is restricted only by structural steel constraints. Even if there are structural posts, tracks can be laid to the inside or outside of the posts to allow sliding of the panels beyond the posts.
Swing Entry/Exit Panel
All units are made to custom sizes. Glazing choices with insulated glass, laminated glass, etc. A large selection of muntins layouts with mullions, SDL muntins, solid panels, higher bottom rails, etc.
Design Freedom
All units are made to custom sizes. Glazing choices with insulated glass, laminated glass, etc. A large selection of muntins layouts with mullions, SDL muntins, solid panels, higher bottom rails, etc.
Choice of Finishes
A choice of hundreds of high quality anodized and powder coated finishes is available. For thermally broken systems, the option of different finishes on the inside and outside is available; see “Finish Options” in the General Introduction.
Hardware Options
A choice of different locking options are available depending on need. Different handle finishes and custodial hardware are also available; see “Hardware” in the General Introduction for details.
Weather Resistant
The system is engineered to provide weather resistance, high structural performance, and resistance to dust infiltration.
Outstanding Appearance
European styling and handsome, sleek lines allow glass areas to be maximized. All sliding and locking hardware is integrated into the profiles for a clean, harmonious look. No surface mounted hinges.
Secure
Concealed multiple-point locking operates with a turn of a handle. The bottom shoot bolt between each sliding panel has a full one-inch throw. The top bolts interlock into striker slots in the adjacent panel, and the lower bolts are thrown into striker plates. No surface mounted flush bolts.
Continued, Long-Term Satisfactory Operation
Quickly open or close panels. Two carrier suspension system allows each single panel to be easily slid. State-of-the-art hardware with sealed ball bearing carriers. Variable interlocking of profiles minimizes expansion problems. Long term ease of operation with compensation and adjustment features. Simple to align sliding panels.
Complete System
Complete, precision built systems with pre-fitted hardware are supplied.
Coordinated Glass Walls
With the SL joining systems, coordinated glass walls can be provided with matching folding doors and windows, matching French doors, transoms, side lites, and corner posts; see the Matching Windows & Doors section for more information.
NanaScreen
The NanaScreen™, a series of collapsible pleated screen panels riding a single track, is available as an option. The system can be installed within the opening or, with extended tracks, be hidden out of view when not in use. See the Screens section for more information.
