01

Operation and everyday use

Both leaves open outwards, away from the room. Allow adequate clear space outside for their swing path. A double-leaf construction can also be asymmetrical where the intended overall size meets the applicable size requirements. This allows opening direction, leaf division and available space to be considered together from an early stage.

To close, guide the leaves steadily into their closed position and use the handle according to the installed locking system. Equipment includes SPILKA fittings and ASSA hardware with 3-point locking. The handle is selectable and can be coordinated with size, material, colour and design. We can clarify the available handle solutions for your configuration when you enquire.

With a double-leaf patio door, the leaf division and opening area shape everyday use. Consider how often the doorway will be used, which routes between indoors and outdoors must remain clear, and whether furniture, planters or other items may extend into the swing area. This practical review helps match the size and specification to the space.

Operate the leaves gently and do not allow them to strike objects. Remove visible dirt from the handle, frame or glass using mild care suitable for the selected finish. Take account of whether you chose pine, oak or aluminium cladding, and use only products suitable for the relevant timber, aluminium and colour finish.

02

Construction and specified component dimensions

This patio door is offered in pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak or aluminium-clad oak. On timber versions, the frame component measures 105 × 57 mm. With aluminium cladding, the frame component measures 115 × 57 mm. The door leaf component is fixed at 76 × 78 mm both with and without aluminium cladding. These figures identify individual components, not the overall patio-door depth, width or height.

Mounting holes are specified as 14 mm. This construction detail does not determine the required overall size. Custom sizing is available for the project dimension. The ordered overall size, structural opening and stated component dimensions serve different purposes and must not be treated as equivalent. In your enquiry, clearly identify what each measurement refers to.

For an asymmetrical double-leaf version, the inactive leaf starts at 381 mm from a minimum overall size of 1080 mm. At larger overall sizes, the division increases proportionally at 2:1, with the narrower leaf representing one share. This requirement applies only to the asymmetrical configuration. State your required overall size and that you want an asymmetrical version.

Equipment includes SPILKA fittings and ASSA hardware with 3-point locking. The patio door is CE marked and supplied with a five-year commercial guarantee. For a tailored configuration, select the required size, pine or oak, optional aluminium cladding, 2- or 3-pane insulated glazing, the preferred bar or panel design, colour and handle.

Assessing the proposed opening correctly

Plan a custom patio door from the actual installation situation. First note where the door will sit and which structural surfaces define the proposed opening. Distinguish in your notes between opening size, desired order size and other project information. Clear labels prevent misunderstandings, because component dimensions must not be equated with the door’s overall size.

Because the leaves open outwards, allow for their swing area outside. Check for steps, balustrades, walls, posts, furniture, planters and other elements that could obstruct opening. Also consider routes across the adjoining patio or outdoor area. This helps establish early whether the proposed position and desired overall size suit how you will use the space.

If considering an asymmetrical version, record the planned overall size especially carefully. From a minimum size of 1080 mm, the inactive leaf starts at 381 mm; at larger overall sizes the division develops proportionally at 2:1, with the narrower leaf representing one share. A clearly labelled sketch showing inside and outside can help communicate the structural opening and adjoining areas.

Connections to the floor, wall and adjacent building elements also belong in the description of the intended installation location. Tell us about known particular features and mark measurements not yet finally checked as provisional. Keep the structural-opening size, desired order size and individual component dimensions consistently separate. This makes the first enquiry clear and orderly.

Finally, consider your usual route between inside and out. The outward swing area should not unnecessarily interfere with frequently used walkways or planned patio furniture. Include seasonal items such as planters or outdoor furniture in this assessment. The more precisely you describe the space, the better the desired size can be checked against the intended use.

Colour, material and visual composition

Colour is a selectable feature of this patio door. State your preferred colour direction in your enquiry and list the desired material version separately. This allows pine or oak, any aluminium cladding and colour to be coordinated as distinct parts of your configuration.

Clearly state the timber species and any aluminium cladding in your enquiry. Choose pine, oak, or either timber with aluminium cladding. Precise wording helps identify the selection, particularly when you are enquiring about several doors or other elements. Then add the desired colour.

The bar pattern shapes the surface arrangement of the patio door. Without bars, the glazing remains less divided; horizontal glazing-dividing bars form an increasingly structured grid. The combined panel design adds a vertical bar to the horizontal lines. A panel also creates an unglazed area. This lets you move from a calm glass view to a distinctly structured composition.

You can coordinate the door with lines already present in your project, such as visible divisions in adjacent elements. From your own viewpoint, decide whether a calm or more divided composition suits you. Include the desired overall size and, for an asymmetrical version, the leaf division in that assessment. Whatever appearance you prefer, always state the full design name.

The handle also contributes to the visible overall design. Tell us the design direction you prefer so handles available for your exact door version can be matched with the colour, timber species and any aluminium cladding. Together with the bar or panel design, the handle completes the individual configuration.

07

Related door, sidelight and window types

If your project includes several openings, it can help to consider different product types separately. An “Outward-opening external door” is a different door type from this double-leaf patio door. “Sliding doors” and “Outward-opening folding doors” are also separate product types in the range.

For a fixed-glazed side addition, consider the separate “Single fixed-glazed door sidelight” product type. The “Outward-opening entrance door with panel” is likewise a separate solution for another application. Where several elements are planned for the same project, list each product type separately with its full name, required size and design preferences.

“Interior doors with panels” are also related product types, but serve a different purpose from an outward-opening patio door. For fixed-glazed window openings, choose “Fixed-glazed windows” or “Fixed-glazed round windows”. Neither window type opens, and each can be planned separately by size, material and colour within an overall design.

A shared design approach can follow your preferred colours, materials and lines. It does not, however, provide automatic compatibility between different product types. Tell us which elements are required individually and which only appear within the same visual scheme. Each product can then remain clearly identified in its own right.

Prepare your enquiry step by step

Begin with the intended location and required size. Clearly label every measurement, stating whether it is the structural-opening size, a provisional project size or the desired order size. Also describe the available swing area outside and identify obstacles or adjacent building elements that may matter when planning outward-opening leaves.

Next choose the material version: pine, oak or either timber with aluminium cladding. Add your preferred colour as a separate selection and describe it as specifically as possible, rather than relying only on a general style label.

Then specify the glazing construction and surface design. State 2- or 3-pane insulated glazing and, for the design, use the full design name wherever possible. Explicitly state if you want a panel. This keeps glazing construction, bar pattern and panel composition understandable as separate details.

Then add your handle preference. Describe your preferred design direction and coordinate the handle with timber species, any aluminium cladding and colour. The handle selection available for your exact configuration can then be determined with you during the enquiry.

Finish by checking that your summary uses clear terms: location, measurement reference, required symmetrical or asymmetrical version, material, aluminium cladding, colour, 2- or 3-pane insulated glazing, full design name, panel and handle. For several doors, sidelights or windows, list every element separately. A short organised summary makes every requested feature traceable for each product.

Is the patio door available in custom sizes?

Yes. Custom sizing is one of the available purchasing choices. Send us measurements for the proposed opening and relevant construction details. The final version should be based on checked measurements and the specific installation situation.

Which materials can I choose?

Choose pine, aluminium-clad pine, oak or aluminium-clad oak. First select the timber species, then decide whether you prefer timber only or a version with aluminium cladding. Colour, glazing, design and handle can be specified as further configuration features.

Can the door be designed with a panel?

Yes. You can choose a version with a panel. Available designs include a panel without extra bars, with two or three horizontal bars, or with two horizontal and one vertical bar. Use the full design name in your enquiry where possible, so the intended surface layout is clear.

Can I select a handle?

Yes. The handle is one of the selectable features of the patio door. Tell us your preferred design direction and coordinate it with material, aluminium cladding and colour. We can clarify which handle solutions are available for the selected door configuration when you enquire.

What does an asymmetrical double-leaf version mean?

In an asymmetrical version, the two leaves are different sizes. From a minimum overall size of 1080 mm, the inactive leaf begins at 381 mm. At larger overall sizes, the division grows proportionally at 2:1, with the narrower leaf representing one share. Clearly state the desired overall size and that you require an asymmetrical version.

Which glazing is available for the patio door?

Choose between 2- and 3-pane insulated glazing. It includes heat-reflective coating, CHR warm-edge spacers and argon fill. The glazing seals are black rubber. State the required pane count together with the bar or panel design in your enquiry.

Is the patio door CE marked?

Yes. This double-leaf outward-opening patio door is CE marked. CE marking and the five-year commercial guarantee are specified product features.

How long does the commercial guarantee apply?

The patio door has a five-year commercial guarantee. Keep your order information so the specific product, selected version and purchase can be identified in a later query. Where Australian Consumer Law applies, this commercial guarantee does not limit its consumer rights and remedies.
