by Shane Henson — July 11, 2012—Royal Building Products, a Canada-based manufacturer and distributor of materials for the home remodeling, building and municipal construction markets, recently launched its Royal Overture Folding Door Series.
According to the company, a subsidiary of Georgia Gulf Corporation, Overture Folding Doors are available for residential and commercial applications and can accommodate a maximum width of 288 inches and a maximum height of 120 inches. When fully retracted, Overture Folding Doors provide easy access to exterior living and a great feeling of wide-open space.
The Royal Overture Folding Door Series offers multi-panel configurations for maximum design options and is available in a variety of Royal Bond Spectra-Coat colors to complement virtually any décor. The Overture Folding Door Series features an all-vinyl frame with aluminum reinforcement that is suitable for nearly any climate. The sash has been designed to use the most common insulated glass configurations (up to 1 3/8-inch triple glazing). The Overture Folding Door Series meets the most stringent energy codes in the industry with an R-value of 6; it also is Energy Star-qualified, demonstrating superior energy efficiency and reliability, says the company.
Enhanced security is provided by three-point locking hardware as well as independent locking systems on every other panel. The high-quality hardware is designed to provide years of maintenance-free and virtually effortless operation.
“The Royal Overture Folding Door Series continues our tradition of designing innovative, high-performing patio door solutions,” said Mark Fanelli, vice president and general manager of Royal’s Window & Door Profiles business. “Overture’s slim-line welded sash is an exciting innovation because it maximizes the viewing area. Overture makes it easier than ever to bring the beauty of the outside into a living space.”
