Aluminum Folding Doors & Windows

Lanai Doors™ top-hung aluminum folding door and window systems are a great alternative to traditional French doors, sliders, pocket doors and pass-thru windows in residential, hospitality and commercial applications. Our systems are installed from the Virgin Islands to the Hawaiian Islands; from The Hamptons to Costa Rica. Aluminum is a long-lasting low maintenance non-warping alternative to wood. Aluminum doors and windows give you more finishing alternatives with the retro look of clear anodized or the warmth of bronze anodized; and painted finish to match existing wood, clad or vinyl doors and windows. Aluminum doors and windows maximize your view when the system is locked down because of the narrow 3 inch wide styles and 3 ½ inch wide rails.

Quality; Flexibility; and Creativity
We use various southern California aluminum extruders to manufacture all of our aluminum bifolding system components. We design and maintain our own dies, which allow us to decide when and how we enhance and improve our folding system. As an example of our flexibility, in 2007, based on customer demand, Lanai Doors™ now offers a low-rise threshold. We use the highest quality 6063 aluminum, commonly referred to as the architectural alloy, which has a high degree of resistance to corrosion.

Extremely Large Openings and Multiple Configurations
The maximum size aluminum door panel is 12 feet tall by 42 inches wide; up to 176 pounds; and 1 ¾ inch thick. A single system can be as large as 12 feet tall by 56 feet wide. With a 12 foot tall by 42 inch wide panel, 80 percent of each door would be made up of glass. In a 56 foot wide system, that would equate to nearly 44 feet of glass – what a view. Lanai Doors™ aluminum folding door and window systems can be configured to stack outside or inside your house. You also have the option of any combination of panels stacking either to the left or to the right, neither direction to exceed eight folding panels. These industry leading options allow you to “Bring The Outdoors In” in a big way.

Standard Pricing
Lanai Doors™ bi-folding systems are priced on a per panel basis and are built to either your actual rough opening dimensions or, we will calculate for you the size of rough opening you need for a panel size of your choice. Lanai Doors™ standard priced aluminum door and window system includes:

  • Panel up to 36 inches wide and up to 96 inches high
  • Clear / bronze anodized or 5 standard paint colors
  • Standard / low-rise aluminum threshold / flush guide for a seamless transition
  • One-lite IG clear tempered (dual glazed) or laminate glass
  • Stainless Steel / Bright Gold / Bronze Hardware
  • 3 inch style and 3 ½ inch rail; jamb width is 4 inches

In addition to the Lanai Doors™ standard system, customers have various tinted and designer glass options, custom paint and panels up to 42 inches wide and up to 12 feet tall. We build our folding systems to your custom order!

Shipped Broken Down For On-Site Assembly
The frame and door panels are pre-drilled with hardware and weather stripping already attached. The frame is broken down into its four pieces (header, two jambs and threshold) and panels are shipped individually. Lanai Doors™ provides detailed installation guidelines and you are able to use your own experienced installers.

Not Thermally Broken Nor Hurricane Certified
Lanai Doors™ aluminum bifold door and window extruded aluminum systems are contiguous aluminum and are not thermally broken. Although our systems are built to withstand harsh weather conditions, we currently do not have plans to obtain Miami Dade County hurricane certification.
