APA Vision Evolution Sliding
Overview
The Vision Evolution sliding door system combines innovative design with strong engineering to create bright, open living spaces. It suits modern homes that want seamless indoor-outdoor flow, large glazed areas and a clean architectural finish. With lift-and-slide operation and slim sightlines, the system provides a perfect balance of performance and minimalism.
Slim Design & Panoramic Views
The system features minimal visible framing and elegant sightlines that maximise the glass area. As a result, homeowners enjoy wider views, more natural light and a spacious feel throughout the home. The slim profile also supports contemporary design styles, making the Vision Evolution sliding door a strong choice for modern renovations, extensions and new builds.
Smooth Lift-and-Slide Operation
The lift-and-slide mechanism allows the sash to glide smoothly with minimal effort. When lowered, the door forms a secure seal that improves insulation and weather protection. Because of this, the system performs well in both mild and exposed environments.
The robust hardware and aluminium profiles support wide spans and tall openings, giving designers greater freedom when planning large entrances and full-height glazing.
Thermal & Acoustic Performance
The Vision Evolution sliding door uses thermally broken aluminium and high-performance glazing. These components help maintain a comfortable indoor climate by reducing heat loss. Acoustic options are available for homes near busy roads or built-up areas, ensuring a quieter and more relaxed living environment.
Strength & Longevity
The door is engineered for long-term use. The aluminium profiles resist corrosion and require little maintenance. With appropriate glazing and hardware choices, the system provides lasting durability and reliable day-to-day performance.
Flexible Applications
This system is ideal for:
- High-end residential extensions
- Modern new-build homes
- Open-plan living spaces
- Garden rooms and terrace openings
- Floor-to-ceiling glazed elevations
It offers strong structural support without compromising visual lightness.
