AluK 70TT

AluK 70TT is a casement door series for entrance and balcony doors that open inward or outward, locked at several points along the leaf. In UAE apartments and villas it covers balcony doors, garden doors and glazed side entrances: a leaf can reach 900 × 2600 mm and 120 kg, with glazing from 18 to 47 mm.

Technical data

Aluminium casement door series for entrance and balcony doors, opening inward or outward, with multi-point locking.

Values are the manufacturer's published figures for the series; the actual value depends on the configuration — glass, size and hardware. Which series fits your opening is settled at the free survey.

Multi-point locking pulls the leaf onto its gaskets along the whole height, which matters for dust as much as for how firmly the door closes. We fabricate AluK profiles to the manufacturer's specification in our Dubai factory and install them ourselves.

Balcony and garden doors

A single leaf up to 900 mm wide is the size of a normal balcony or garden door. The height of up to 2600 mm suits the tall ceilings of villas, so the door can line up with floor-to-ceiling windows beside it. Opening inward keeps the leaf out of the wind on a balcony; opening outward saves room inside.

What the Uw figures mean for a door used every day

AluK publishes Uw from 1.93 W/m²K with double glazing and from 1.56 W/m²K with triple glazing. For a balcony door the practical point is the seal when it is shut: with the leaf locked at several points the gaskets stay compressed, so the cooled room does not draw in hot air and fine sand around the edges.

The glazing range of 18–47 mm takes a solar-control double-glazed unit, with laminated glass on the inside where the pane reaches the floor.

70TT or D77

D77 is the heavier AluK door system: hinges rated for 180 kg, glazing of 24–52 mm, single- and double-leaf versions, emergency-exit variants and low or automatic thresholds. 70TT is lighter, with leaves up to 120 kg, and fits residential doors where those features are not needed.

70TT is a straightforward AluK door for balconies and garden exits of normal width.

The honest downside

When 70TT is not the door to choose

The leaf stops at 900 mm wide and 120 kg. A wide entrance, a double-leaf door or a heavy leaf with thick laminated glass is beyond it, and so are escape doors in commercial buildings. D77, with hinges rated for 180 kg and emergency-exit versions, covers those.

For a wide opening onto a terrace a swing door is the wrong type altogether: two leaves still leave a meeting stile in the middle and need room to open. A sliding or lift-and-slide door such as SC140TT or SC156TT keeps the glass in one plane.

Consider instead AluK D77

Frequently asked questions

Inward is common on balconies, because the wind cannot catch the open leaf and slam it. Outward frees floor space inside and suits small rooms. 70TT is made both ways, so we decide at the survey after looking at the furniture and the exposure of the balcony.

Units from 18 to 47 mm thick. For a balcony door we usually specify a double-glazed unit with a solar-control coating and a laminated inner pane, because the glass reaches the floor.
