SL82 - Structurally Glazed Aluminum Framed Folding System

General Description

The SL82 is a (structurally glazed) minimal exterior stile all glass "look" thermally broken aluminum folding panel system designed to provide an opening glass wall or storefront up to 39’ wide . It is available in various configurations utilizing one to twelve panels . An option for swing entry/exit panel(s) is available. Units can be inward opening only .

Special Features of Nanawall SL82 System

All Glass Aesthetics
Structurally glazed operable wall that blends perfectly with the all-glass aesthetic of a structurally glazed building.

Clean lines
The structurally glazed door panels are created by mounting the dual or triple pane glass to the exterior of the structural door frames in a slim channel that is virtually invisible from the exterior. The proprietary triple wraparound sealing process protects the glass edge when opening and closing the system.

Large Exterior Openings Are Possible
The SL82 can be custom sized for openings with as few as one panel to as many as twelve panels with a maximum size of 39' 4" (12000 mm) wide. Custom heights up to 8' 2" (2500 mm)

Multitude of Stacking Configurations
24 inswing stacking configurations with options for a swing / exit panel for versatile functions.

Superior Thermal Break
Multi-chamber, thermally broken with a 1 1/4" (32 mm) polyamide material reinforced with glass fibers, aluminum profiles. This thermal barrier provides increased strength, superior humidity control, improved acoustics and energy savings. Even the sills are thermally broken to reduce inside condensation. With tripe glazing, the SL82 achieves an impressive U-value of 0.29.

Weather Resistant
Three levels of seals provide effective protection from wind pressure and driving rain. The system has been independently tested for water penetration, air infiltration, structural and thermal performance, forced entry and acoustic performance. With the high performance sill, the inswing tested to 6 PSF for water.

Sill Options
ADA flush and high performance sills available

Adjustable Rollers
State-of-the-art rollers with sealed ball bearing carriers and height adjustment features provide long term ease of operation.

Concealed, Adjustable Hinges
Expansion and contraction problems are minimized with variable interlocking of profiles and adjustable hinges.

Compact stacking
A minimum of space is taken up for stacking

CE Mark
The CE mark serves as verification that the product conforms with the essential requirements of the Construction Products Directive (CPD), a legal mandate of the European Commission. CE certified windows and doors provide building professionals with a uniform set of technical standards to evaluate and specify product performance with added assurance that NanaWall products are safe and fit for purpose.
