Passive Standard Aluminium Bi-Fold Doors for Yorkshire Projects

The Solarlux Highline is a premium, high performance bi-folding door system that is ideal for projects aiming to meet passive house standards. From its outstanding air permeability to U-values of under 0.8 W/m²K, the Highline aluminium bi-fold door offers comfort and energy efficiency.

And, alongside its passive credentials, the Highline also embodies a wealth of features to enhance your home and your lifestyle. With incredibly slim sightlines of just 99mm and impressive panel heights up to 3.5m, these German-engineered bi-folding doors connect your home beautifully to the world outside. Custom made for your property and requirements, they flood your home with natural light and make indoor-outdoor living effortless.

Your Vision, Our Solution

Style, functionality and energy efficiency are on offer with the Highline bi-folding doors.

And as a bespoke solution, these outstanding doors provide the versatility of design and premium features to bring your vision to life.

Your Highline bi-folding doors will integrate seamlessly with your home's style thanks to a huge range of RAL colours, door configurations and materials. And for a uniform aesthetic and consistent functionality, you can even complement your bi-folds with matching Highline windows. These can be used for passive projects subject to their overall size and if the frames are built in externally and internally as part of the building fabric.

Passive House Standard

Custom made and highly thermally efficient, the Solarlux Highline bi-fold door is stylish, practical and perfect for projects aspiring to passive house standards. It can deliver exceptional overall U-values (Uw-values) of 0.8 W/m²K.

Made from high-performance glazing and heat-insulated aluminium, the Highline is able to reflect radiant heat, which improves energy efficiency and comfort by reducing heat loss and heat gain. 

Further insulation properties are created through the use of advanced thermal technology and a specially-designed, patented multi-functional break profile called the bionicTURTLE®.

It can also be complemented with passive standard Highline windows, or used to create a passive standard open corner.

Highly-Engineered Innovation

A range of innovative features have been developed and patented by Solarlux for its Highline bi-folding door system. This results in not only outstanding energy efficiency to passive house standards but also market-leading manoeuvrability, security, safety and accessibility.

Unique features in the Highline include:

  • The TwinX®, a concealed panel-centring mechanism that creates a sleeker look, ensures the doors remain stable even under high wind loads, and reinforces the sealing properties
  • The bionicTURTLE®, a multi-functional break profile which creates superb insulation and allows for large and heavy panels with slim sightlines
  • The Comfort Snap, a panel catch which ensures all the doors stay together fully opened

Key Features

  • Excellent thermal performance of glass, doors and shutters: Very low U-values (Uw > 0.8 W/m²K) that can meet passive house standards (under 0.89 W/m²K)
  • Option to integrate fixed, tilt or tilt-and-turn Highline windows that open inward to either the right or the left. The windows can be seamlessly matched to your Highline bi-folding door, so the profiles, paint, coatings and even passive house capabilities are all consistent
