Kogen thermal break aluminum single-leaf swing doors are highly applicable across a variety of building types – from residential homes and apartments to offices, hotels, and industrial facilities. With exceptional thermal insulation, acoustic performance, and structural durability, this door is an optimal solution for improving both residential and commercial environments.
WHAT IS A THERMAL BREAK ALUMINUM DOOR?
A thermal break aluminum door is constructed using specially designed aluminum profiles that incorporate a thermal barrier. This barrier limits heat transfer between the interior and exterior environments, delivering superior insulation and energy efficiency compared to standard aluminum doors.
STRUCTURE OF A THERMAL BREAK ALUMINUM DOOR
Aluminum Profile with Thermal Break
- Made from high-quality aluminum alloy.
- Includes a polyamide (PA66) strip as the thermal break between two aluminum layers.
- The polyamide strip prevents heat transfer and dampens sound, vibration, and radiation.
Operating Principle of PA66 Polyamide Thermal Break
- The PA66 strip is placed between the inner and outer aluminum layers.
- This structure reduces heat conduction and external noise while maintaining structural rigidity.
- Resistant to high temperatures and humidity, making it suitable for extreme climates.
KEY ADVANTAGES
1. Superior Insulation & Energy Efficiency
- The Technoform PA66 thermal strip prevents thermal bridging.
- Reduces U-value from 17.1W/m²K to as low as 3.0W/m²K.
- Combined with Low-E double glazing, it minimizes solar heat gain and maintains interior comfort.
2. Excellent Soundproofing
- Multi-chamber aluminum profile and insulated glazing significantly reduce outside noise.
- Dual EPDM rubber gaskets ensure airtight sealing.
3. High Durability & Corrosion Resistance
- Aluminum 6063-T6 alloy offers high strength and deformation resistance.
- Anodized ED coating enhances scratch, weather, and corrosion resistance.
- Unlike wood, it resists termites and decay.
4. Water & Wind Protection
- Smart drainage system prevents water accumulation.
- EPDM sealing blocks drafts, maintaining indoor warmth in winter and coolness in summer.
5. Safety & Convenience
- Reinforced locking system and 3D hinges ensure tight closure and security.
- 180-degree swing for versatile opening in various architectural layouts.
- Easy to clean and maintain.
