The new Schüco ASE 60/80 sliding door system

With  the ASE (Aluminium Sliding Element) 60/80 sliding system range, Schüco  has developed a new modular system which offers fabricators numerous  benefits in fabrication and installation and which has already won the  Red Dot Design Award 2018. The system also impresses with maximum  thermal insulation as well as a modular fittings system. This means that  architecturally sophisticated sliding and lift-and-slide solutions can  be constructed from just a few system articles.

Technology and thermal insulation

The ASE 60/80 (60 and 80 mm basic depth) sliding system range is  based on multifunctional profiles, which allow for optimum use of  identical parts. 13 different opening types can be implemented using  just a few half profiles within each basic depth, providing greater  design freedom. This means that, in addition to the double and  triple-track designs, attractive single-track versions such as type 1A  can be created.

Large unit dimensions up to 3.50 m in height and vent weights up to  200 kg and 350 kg are possible in both basic depths – and from 2019 even  up to 500 kg. The ASE 60 system achieves a thermal insulation value of  Uf 2.2 W/(m2K). For special requirements up to passive house level, the  ASE 80.HI system is available and can accommodate glass thicknesses up  to 60 mm.
