Doors
Timber and glass doors with outstanding thermal qualities and security
Today's architecture in Australia aims to maximise natural light without the massive loss of thermal qualities and increased air infiltration that can reduce the energy rating for the overall building. Paarhammer have proven that top energy ratings can be achieved with our special frames, seals and unique metal-to-metal locking system.
It's why the award-winning Paarhammer glass doors achieve unmatched energy ratings and the lowest air infiltration, achieving energy savings up to 85%. Custom made in Australia, these doors have an ultimate strength test of 2300pa (N4), with the Wood-Alu Range N5/C3, and water penetration of 150pa, giving our door systems unparalleled strength and security.
The design flexibility of our glass doors has been proven time after time. We manufacture bi-fold doors of up to 10m (30ft) wide and sliding doors over 3m (12ft) high.
Featuring our secure locking system, our doors achieve U-values of 1.0 and reduce noise up to 80-90%. It's not surprising that our solutions are suitable for the most demanding projects including Passive House.
Advantages of each of the following ranges:
Wood-Alu Range: internal timber, external aluminium
Architectural Timber Range: strength, performance, versatility
Komfortline+ Range: energy efficiencies in domestic sizes
Passive House Range: extreme efficiency, no drafts
Bushfire Safe Range: safety for all Bushfire Attack Levels (BAL's) including Flame Zone (BAL-FZ)
