If your company produces wooden windows but does not produce sliding terrace doors, and they are present in the order, we can execute such order together with you. The conditions for such cooperation are discussed individually in each particular case. - What is the lead time of an HS-Portal® sliding terrace door?
The average lead time is 30-45 days. The term can be extended if there are not necessary fittings in our warehouse. In this case, it will be ordered individually at the manufacturer in Germany. - What is the difference between HS-Portal® terrace doors and other types of sliding doors?
The HS-Portal® sliding terrace door is a window-door structure that retains all the properties of modern wooden windows and doors but is technologically different from them in its structure. HS-Portal® doors do not have hinges, brackets or other wearable parts. The doorstep of the HS-Portal® allows you to retain the floor inside and outside at the same level, and the guide raises only 16 mm. As a rule, other sliding structures are constructed based on a window or door profile, that is, by their design they repeat a window or a door, differing only in furniture and the way of opening. At the same time, in the boxes of both of these portals, a lower timber, which rises above the floor by 68, 78 or 92 mm is necessarily assumed. Therefore, when operating other sliding doors through this timber, you will need to either step over or arrange a step in this place, adjusting the difference in the floor level inside and out so that this step is the lower beam of the portal. In sliding doors, where there are brackets and hinges, the leaves will constantly press on them with their weight. If such structures are open for a long time, then this inevitably leads to wear of the hardware and sagging of the leaves. Also, the doorsteps of most other sliding doors contain grooves and recesses that become clogged with dust and rubbish during operation. Inside these grooves, there are usually rollers holding the leaves, so the grooves must be constantly cleaned, regularly lubricated and maintained. The design of the HS-Portal® sliding terrace doors is nothing like this, so their important advantages are “indestructibility” and ease of maintenance. Dust and even dirt on the doorstep of the HS-Portal® door in case of dirtying will not affect its operation in any way. You can clean it with an ordinary rag or broom - it will be enough. - What profile does HS-Portal® use for glazing terraces?
We use glued laminated timber with a thickness of 68, 78 or 92 mm, the same as for the manufacture of wooden windows. Unlike aluminum glazed terraces, our structures are warmer, more sealed and can be much larger. Besides, wooden frames do not have internal empty spaces and, unlike aluminum, condensation does not collect in them. Respectively, an additional drainage system or drainage holes is not required. - What material are HS-Portal® sliding terrace doors made of?
HS-Portal® doors are made from glued laminated timber; the main species used are pine, larch, oak, and ash. Other types of wood are available on request.
- Does HS-Portal® work with materials other than wood?
No, we use only wood as our construction material. - At what stage in the construction is it best to install HS-Portal® sliding doors?
The most ideal option is to order HS-Portal® sliding terrace doors immediately after installing the rough screed, before any other work with the floor indoors and outdoors. In this case, it will be possible to completely drown the doorstep of the sliding door into the final floor covering both indoors and outdoors, to ensure the correct spillway and minimize the height of the doorway between the room and the street. - What heating appliances do you recommend next to the HS-Portal® sliding terrace doors?
We recommend the installation of floor-mounted convectors. - When is it best to install floor mounted convectors next to the HS-Portal® sliding doors?

- Is it possible to lock the HS-Portal® sliding door leaf to be locked with a key?
Yes, such an opportunity is provided, but it is necessary to be agreed upon in advance when placing an order. By default, a handle without a key is installed and can only be opened from the inside.
- How many compaction circuits do the HS-Portal® sliding door leaves have?
On the sides of the leaf, there are two circuits of the rubber seal, on the top of the leaf there are three contours. - What are the maximum weight and dimensions of the HS-Portal® sliding door leaf?
The maximum admissible weight of the leaf is 400 kg. The recommended leaf height is not more than 3000 mm. The leaf size in width by weight and height, in principle, is not limited. However, you should remember that a leaf larger than 2000 x 2500 mm and weighing more than 160 kg will be quite heavy during operation. - Is it possible to make an HS-Portal® sliding door 3 meters high?
Technically, this is possible. We installed HS-Portal® doors of higher heights. Examples of such designs are presented on the website. Height restrictions may occur be due to the characteristics of a particular object. For example, if the HS-Portal® door experiences strong wind loads, its height will be reduced. - Is it possible to open the leaf of the HS-Portal® sliding door not completely, but partially and fix it in this position?
Yes, it is possible. The HS-Portal® door leaf stops and locks anywhere.

- Is it possible to produce an HS-Portal® sliding door, in which the leaf is not only pushed to the side but also tilted back for ventilation?
No. That is, technically it is possible, but our company does not install such designs for customer safety reasons. Let the hardware manufacturer forgive us for this excessive caution. The ventilation mode in the HS-Portal® sliding doors is also present so that the leaf can be pushed back 10 mm, fixed and also locked with a key. The only difference between this mode and the hinged one is that a ventilation slot is formed not from above, but along the side parts of the leaf. - Which glass units are installed in the HS-Portal® sliding door?
In timber products of 68 mm the installation of double- or triple-pane glass unit up to 32 mm thick is possible. In a 92 mm timber structure, glass units with a thickness of up to 54 mm can be installed. We recommend using glass units only with tempered glass.

- How reliably does the HS-Portal® sliding door retain heat and prevent street noise?
It is as reliable as a modern wooden window with a unit glass. - What does the "lift-slide opening principle" mean?
The lift-slide fittings of the HS-Portal® sliding door remains a jack that does not stand rigidly on the floor but is rolling. At the moment of turning the handle, the mechanism is set in motion, and this "jack" lifts the leaf 5-7 mm above the floor, and the rollers allow it to roll freely along the guide rail. After stopping the leaf where necessary, you turn the handle back, the "jack" lowers it down, and it stands under its weight. - Is it possible to use the HS-Portal® door as a room divider?
It is possible, but it may seem too expensive to you compared with the offers of other companies producing room dividers. - Is it possible to use the HS-Portal® sliding door to glaze the balcony by glazing the opening not from floor to ceiling, but from the railing to the ceiling?

- Is it possible to automatically open the doors of the HS-Portal®?
Yes, there is such an opportunity. But using the HS-Portal® door as a sliding door at the entrance to the store will not work, because the drive will first turn the handle and then slide the leaf. But to open and close the doors of the HS-Portal® between the hall and the terrace, pressing the button on the remote control is possible. But the cost of such drives and consoles is quite high and is sent on request. - Is it possible to install the HS-Portal® doors in a half-timbered house?

Another option is to install mosquito nets in the sliding leaves as the second raw from the outside of the building - What is the difference between HS-Portal® doors and frameless glazing?
Frameless glazing of the veranda and terrace suggests that only glass moves along the guides. As a rule, frameless glazing is very light, cold, it is difficult to resist the wind. It does not provide for the preservation of heat. Our option, HS-Portal® sliding terrace doors, is the warm glazing of the terrace with sliding structures consisting of frames with glass units, seals and locks. Such structures are hermetically sealed and technologically have all the properties of a modern wooden window. - What is the difference between the HS-Portal® doors and aluminum doors?
Aluminum sliding door profiles are empty inside. Condensation is collected there, which can then drain into the room through the drain holes. HS-Portal® doors made of solid glued laminated timber are free from this. Wooden leaves are much thicker and stronger than aluminum. - How does the HS-Portal® door glazing withstand the wind load?
If the sliding frames of your terrace are constantly exposed to direct strong winds, for example overlooking the open balcony with sea views, we can offer a particularly strong configuration of the sliding doors of the terrace and a system of reinforced locks. -
