Aluminum Sliding Patio Door AS2047 Hurricane Rated Double

Product Overview

Engineered to meet Florida Building Code TAS 202 and AS2047 standards, this sliding patio door utilizes a 6063-T6 aluminum alloy frame with a reinforced thermal break design. Double-glazed panels with laminated inner ply and a 0.76mm PVB interlayer achieve STC 38 acoustic ratings, reducing external noise by up to 46 dB. Tested to withstand wind loads of 60 PSF and water penetration resistance at 15% of design pressure, this unit is certified for high-velocity hurricane zones (HVHZ).

Frequently Asked Questions

What specific Florida code does this door comply with?

This door is tested to TAS 202-94 for large missile impact (9 lb 2×4 at 50 ft/s), TAS 203-94 for cyclic wind pressure, and meets AS2047-2014 for water penetration and air infiltration. All test reports are certified by an accredited Florida laboratory.

Can the acoustic STC rating be upgraded for extreme noise environments?

Yes. Optional upgrades include 6mm + 6mm laminated glass with 0.89mm PVB interlayer (STC 42), or triple glazing with two air gaps (STC 45). These require frame depth increase to 3.5 inches.

What is the maximum wind load this sliding door can handle?

Standard design wind load is 60 PSF (pounds per square foot) for a 96″ x 96″ panel. For larger sizes, frame reinforcements or mullions can increase capacity to 80 PSF, tested per ASTM E330.

How is the door packaged for ocean freight to protect against damage?

Each unit is individually crated with 1/2″ plywood sides, foam padding at all glass edges, and a moisture barrier bag. Crates are stackable two high in a 20-foot container, with corner protectors and banding straps.

What lead time for a custom size with specific RAL color?

Standard lead time is 28 days for stock sizes and finishes. Custom RAL colors add 7 days for powder coating application and curing. Minimum order for custom color is 30 units.
