Alura 4500 Tilt-Slide Doors
Alura 4500 tilt-slide doors provide secure ventilation with space-saving functionality – a
perfect solution in spaces where traditional in-swing doors are less than ideal or not desired.
The design allows the operable sash of the door to easily tilt and smoothly slide parallel in front of the fixed side unit, not into the room. Optimal profile design and compression-seal technology contribute to outstanding performance.
Matching fixed and operable windows can be paired with these doors as top and side lites allowing for the greatest design flexibility.

Large reinforcement chambers in the sash
Allow for sash sizes as large as 8 ft (2.4 m) high and 5 ft (1.5 m) wide to a weight of 260 lbs (120 kg)
Large glazing capacity, including special high-performance glass of 1 3/8 in (35 mm) thickness
Improves energy effiency and acoustical properties
Multiple locking points and compression seals all around the perimeter
Create a tight seal against sound, air and water infiltration
High-quality European hardware
Operates quietly and effortlessly
Frame profiles with different depth
Provide flexibility for new construction and replacement applications
Large chambers and innovative
runner mechanism
Chambers accommodate robust
reinforcements required in heavy
commercial applications while the
runner mechanism provides smooth
projection of the sash which easily and
precisely slides to any desired position.
Ventilation in a secured position
High-quality tilt-slide hardware allows a vent position, where the top of the sash tilts
toward the inside of the room, but cannot be opened from the outside, providing security.

The secret is in the formulation
Proprietary uPVC formulation includes above-average quantities of TiO2 stabilizers and impact
modifiers to protect against fading from solar radiation. When put through five years of weather testing in Arizona, and performed better than standard vinyl.
In addition, 4500 Series windows and doors use a higher than average surface gloss, enhancing the ability of the windows and doors to repel dirt and retain their color for many years.
The all-around talent
Save energy with better thermal performance
Reducing energy usage is important, not just for the occupant’s wallet but also on a larger scale when it comes to sustainable building. Lower energy consumption with a good conscience – whether it’s cold or hot outside.
Ensure peace and quiet with a view on mute
Noise is disturbing and over time, it is even unhealthy. Increase occupants’ feeling of well-being with previously unattained values in noise protection.
Minimize maintenance with ease of operation and ease of cleaning
Thanks to a high-quality, high-definition finish (HDF), smudges can be quickly and easily removed using conventional detergents. As far as maintenance, the occasional application of a quality lubricant to the
moving parts, such as hinges and lock mechanisms, is all that is needed.
The sealing technology assures optimal closing pressure. Due to advanced engineering and close cooperation with hardware suppliers, window and door operation is smooth and easy. Reduce maintenance and cleaning effort to a minimum.
Trust high levels of safety with superior security features
In combination with the appropriate hardware, EuroDesign 4500 windows and doors enhance security with multiple locking points, fusion-welded corners and steel-reinforced, multi-chambered design. Enjoy the security you are looking for.
