In the UAE SC89 is offered by Gutmann Middle East LLC, Dubai Investment Park 2. We fabricate it at our factory in Dubai to the manufacturer's specification and install it with our own crews.
Where SC89 fits
An apartment balcony in JVC or Business Bay, a townhouse terrace, a bedroom door onto a small garden: openings of normal height where the panels do not need to be very large or heavy. A 35 mm sash keeps the frame light and the price reasonable, and a symmetrical profile design uses the same accessories inside and out.
What the figures mean on site
The supplier publishes a water test at 450 Pa under ASTM E 331-00 and wind class C4/B4. That suits low and mid-rise balconies and sheltered terraces. On a high floor facing the sea we would move to a series with higher published values.
Glass of 24–28 mm in sash type 1 or 30 mm in sash type 2 takes a solar-control double-glazed unit. The weight limit of 110 kg per panel sets the panel size more often than the glass does, so we check both for every opening.
SC89 or SC115
SC115 is the bigger slider: a 115 mm frame, 50 mm sash, panels up to 3000 × 3000 mm and 200 kg, glass up to 42 mm, watertightness E800 and wind class C5/B5. Choose SC115 for larger panels and higher floors; SC89 for standard balcony and terrace doors.
SC89 is the lightweight GUTMANN slider for balconies and standard terrace doors where panels stay under 110 kg.
