The south wall of the home features
floor to ceiling Tiltco Lift and Slide
glass doors; the perfect system for ex-
tremely large, two panel sliding con-
figurations. Unlike other sliding door
systems, the heavier the sash weight,
the better the weatherproof seal is
when locked. When opened, the
sash raises 2-3mm on a roller type
system. This hardware is what gives
the Tiltco Lift and Slide its feather light
operability. This feature certainly ad-
hered to the homeowners desire to
increase the glazing of the area with-
out impeding on the interior space.
The thermally broken sill profile is re-
cessed into the floor for a seamless
interior to exterior transition.
