Glass is a crucial component of modern architecture. With NanaWall® Folding and Single-Track Sliding Glass Door Systems, this element becomes dynamic. Whether residential or commercial, exterior or interior use,straight walls or with angle changes, NanaWall®s create large wall openings that blend the divisions between the spaces.
At NanaWall Systems, Inc. we believe that if you can imagine it, we can probably create it. Consequently, the design options we offer are almost limitless. Our glass wall systems come with aluminum, wood or aluminum clad over wood frames in hundreds of colors, configurations and finishes.
The NanaWall® is a full line of precision engineered systems that have been independently tested for air infiltration, water penetration, structural performance and forced entry. A Dade County hurricane approved system is also available. An extensive report on test results is available under Performance.
NanaWall® Folding Systems consist of panels connected together in a train. The panels can be hinged off either one or both side jambs and meet in a number of ways. Check Folding Configurations for a complete set of options. With an odd number of panels on one side, a swing door is possible. With an odd number of panels on both sides, like in the animation shown, a double French door is created. Further options include inswing or outswing and center pivot panels. The total number of panels in your wall opening depends on your design and the combination of panel height, width, and glazing. Normally the maximum number of folding panels in an opening is 12, with a maximum of 6 panels hinged together.
With NanaWall® Single-Track Sliding Systems the maximum number of panels is virtually unlimited, restricted only by structural
steel constraints. And even if there are structural posts, tracks can be laid to the inside or outside of the posts to allow sliding beyond the posts.
As opposed to traditional sliding doors, NanaWall® Single-Track Sliding Systems are operated on a single track only. In non-weathertight
applications the floor track can even be eliminated altogether. Each panel is supported by two carriers and is moved independently into position,
locking into place with tongue and groove connections. When open, the panels can be stored outside the plane of the opening, creating literally a disappearing wall.
Many different Stacking Configurations are available, tailored to your opening situation.
Some systems allow for incorporated swing doors which easily convert from sliding into swing panels.
In the past 15 years, NanaWall®s have been installed in thousands of commercial and residential buildings throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean. A vast selection of project photos can be viewed in our
Photo Gallery. NanaWall®s provide unique solutions for any opening wall situation.
