Sliding window

The horizontal highlight

The air-lux sliding window, with sliding sash weights of up to 1,800 kg and areas of up to 25 m2, guarantees 100% impermeability and optimum operational properties. In addition to that, the glass wall offers a stunning view and lets natural light into your home.

Opening and closing is smooth and quiet – either fully automatically or manually, without any effort. The robust yet elegant frames meet the highest quality standards.

Unique sealing system –
how air-lux works

Sliding window

Inflated gasket:
by pressing the button, air is introduced into the frame and the gasket is inflated. The seal presses against the sliding profile and closes the gap between the slider and the fixed frame to create a perfect seal.

Deflated gasket:
the button is pressed a second time to open the unit, the gasket deflates and retracts to its original profile. The sliding sash can then be moved freely.

Features of the air-lux sliding windows

The single-track system consists of thermally insulated aluminum profiles and can be installed flush in the floor/ceiling area as well as laterally in the reveals. The sliding sash runs on the outside, eliminating the annoying, visible guideway rail on the inside. The vertical, central post has a width of 65mm and contributes significantly to the stability and robustness of the system. Due to the robustness of the system, the profiles, and not the glass, are the supporting element. Since the air-lux system is compatible with the Schüco AWS 75 system, tilt and turn window, ventilation gaps or even door elements can be seamlessly and perfectly integrated – all at the same time, cleanly and professionally.

A button with integrated LED in the window frame controls the sliding window operation. Opening and closing is done manually or fully automatically by means of a drive integrated in the profile.

Big is best – and this is also true for air-lux sliding windows. The air seal allows the system to absorb more building tolerances than conventional sealing systems. This in turn allows for sash sizes of up to 8 × 3.1 m (width x height) or 3.1 × 6 m (when maximising width or height, respectively) – with frameless, floor-to-ceiling installation. At a weight of nearly two tonnes, a sliding sash of this kind works much like a glass façade, which can be slid away to the side in virtual silence.

Whether fine wood, burnished brass or stone, we can clad the sliding sash in a wide range of materials and surfaces.

With air-lux connect, you have even more options for window styles – for example, a unique material fusion of aluminum with fine wood on the inside or burnished brass (bronze finish) on the outside.

More about materials

The highly resistant air-lux basic construction can be upgraded with additional mechanical components and special glass to the tested resistance class RC3. All safety measures remain invisible and change neither the profile nor the face widths. Bullet-resistant glass and alarm glass can also be used up to an element thickness of 60 mm. Electronic components for monitoring the closing position and locking of the sliding windows make it possible to control and monitor the sliding windows through the BMS (alarm system, home automation system, etc.) – including with mobile devices like smartphones and tablets.
