Renlita Overhead Doors

Renlita adds Spec Wizard

Renlita Doors North America has announced a very exciting new program - SPEC WIZARD.

Please go to our website: www.renlitadoors.com to see this new addition to our program. Simply click on the red ARCAT logo to be linked directly to our page listing on ARCAT. The majority of our products are now live with SpecWizard. This is a tool to aide the architect, spec writer or designer to draft project specifications in the design and development phase of projects. Try it out your self! Just follow the simple menu driven template and insert the information for a project, then select the format to be downloaded.


We are also working on another program with ARCAT to have on-line autocad files of typical door details including jamb, sill and header; counterweight and pulley configuration; door frame and channel (manual or motorized) - all information needed for an Architect to begin designing Renlita Doors into their projects. The autocad files will be live within the next month. We will post the start date on this blog.

Please contact us at info@harrisonleigh.com if you have any questions.

Happy 2009

Sky-Frame Installed in Soho!

SKY-FRAME is a unique system for large-surface, frame less, insulated sliding glass units whose surrounding frames can be installed flush with walls, ceilings and floors. The only visible part of the frame is a 1" thin vertical muntin where two elements overlap.

This allows for unimpeded panoramic views and threshold-free transitions between the inside and outside. In addition to the aesthetic advantages, the system also meets the highest standards in thermal insulation and safety. Due to a flush installed floor track, SKY-FRAME doors are ADA compliant and ideal for barrier-free and wheel-chair accessible buildings.

SKY-FRAME consists of insulated glazed sections. The sections are placed in aluminum frames which are recessed into the floor, walls and ceiling. The sliding sections rest on ball bearing rollers and glide effortlessly. Typical U-Va;ie is 0.37.

Fixed and sliding sections can be combined as desired- either alternating fixed and operable or with bi-parting sections. Triple tracks make it possible to slide several elements behind each other. Butt-glazed corners and sliding corners with no fixed corner post are also possible.

The maximum surface of each sliding section is approximately 65 Square Feet. The latch mechanism site flat against the frame and releases and engages the multi point locking system when lightly pushed.

SKY-FRAME is manufactured in Switzerland. Please contact us at Harrison Leigh with any questions.
