Exterior Pocket Door (Open Buttress or Wing)
Slung! exterior doors can utilize an external pocket that is a wall-like protrusion and extends beyond the building envelope on the same plane as the system. When the system is open, the pocket conceals the system and disguises the doors as a wall extension or a fence when closed, giving more flexibility in design over more typical exterior doors.
Disappearing Garage
Garage doors usually detract from exterior style and design of homes. A Slung! System, using Exterior Pocket Doors and solid panels can be integrated with mock windows and treatment. Design a garage door, which when closed disappears into the exterior design of the home and is concealed by the exterior pocket when open. Average, functional, hinged and lockable exterior doors can be built into the system for easy pedestrian access.
Flush Integrated Flooring
Other multi-track exterior doors are often associated with wide, unsightly channels and tracks, which interrupt sight lines and disrupt the flow between interior and exterior flooring. Slung!'s integrated flush sill system has been designed specifically to enhance your view and provide you with the ability to conceal areas of unused track. Our independently adjustable guide channels allow for one channel to be raised and flush with flooring, while the second is hidden beneath tile, hardwood or other any other flooring you choose to use in your project. Slung! exterior the ability to lay custom flooring in the space between two raised channels, sills all but disappear giving the impression of larger square footages and space.
Square Balcony Systems
The growing trends towards metropolis living means high-rise condominiums are in greater demand than ever before, which often limits balcony size and shape along with total living space. Use Slung! exterior doors for square balcony applications to bring greater flow and uninterrupted sight lines into your project. Whether using stacked panels or concealing open systems within custom build wall pockets, Slung! systems allow for superior design freedoms, while adding value through increased useable square footage. With your creativity and design talents, Slung! can help you realize your vision.
Hidden Structural Support
Slung!'s patented steel core frame not only allows for superior weight carrying capabilities and improves functionality of your exterior doors, but increases your design options as well. In certain Slung! applications, a greater amount of deflection is realized due to unlimited system width which often is dealt with by interrupting the exterior doors with a structural support wall or beam. Using the strength found within Slung!'s steel frame, structural support can be hidden within one or more fixed panels. This allows your clients to maximize enjoyment of expensive views and achieve design goals otherwise not attainable.
