Deconstructing the Engineering of High-Performance Stacking Doors
Aluminium stack doors (multi-slide stacker systems) represent the zenith of architectural fenestration, bridging structural stability with maximum visible glass ratios. Unlike conventional two-panel sliding doors or accordion bi-folds, stacking doors slide smoothly along tandem or triple tracks, parking neatly behind a fixed jamb to offer up to 75% unobstructed clear openings.
At our 180,000㎡ industrial manufacturing center in Foshan, China, DERCHI manufactures stack door profiles utilizing high-purity primary ingot 6063-T6 aluminum. Utilizing thermal break polyamide bars (PA66GF25 reinforced with 25% glass fiber), our systems interrupt internal-to-external thermal bridging, lowering overall thermal transmittance (U-factors) to as low as 1.4 W/m²·K when paired with argon-filled, double-glazed Low-E insulated glass units (IGU).
Structural reliability hinges on multi-wheel stainless steel tandem rollers capable of holding up to 400kg per movable leaf. Equipped with concealed water weep drainage channels and marine-grade anodized or PVDF fluorocarbon coatings, our stacking door configurations endure 3,000 hours of continuous salt-spray testing without oxidization.
