Narrow-Profile Steel Door and Window Systems

Steel windows and doors have become essential elements in exceptional residential buildings. Whether for interior partitioning or external facade application, narrow steel profiles offer previously unknown possibilities. Our partners, Jansen with the Janisol Arte system, and Forster with their Unico XS product line, offer excellent quality narrow-profile steel door and window solutions. Within this product category, you can find door and window systems ideal for both residential buildings and communal projects. It is possible to work with both thermally broken (external facade) and non-thermally broken (non-insulated, interior) profile options, achieving nearly identical appearances. Among their components, you can also find well-known curtain walls and glass roofs, eliminating the need to switch suppliers when handling larger glass areas. KAV manufactures steel doors and windows from components of existing systems, using unique welded joints, and then finishes the fabricated frame in the desired color.

The range of narrow-profile steel products is continuously expanding, but the following factors should be examined when selecting:

• Structural suitability, as swing or tilt-and-turn versions cannot be applied to wings over 2500mm in height;
• Thermal insulation needs to be modeled with the selected glass using software;
• The profile of the wing needs to be selected based on the weight and depth of the glass panel, although this may limit the desired delicacy.

Ensuring these factors are taken into account during selection will result in the optimal narrow-profile steel door and window system for your project.
