Engineering
A leaf on an off-axis pivotThe catalogue hangs the leaf on a pivot set off its own axis, so a wide entrance swings from a single off-centre point and the closed face reads as one uninterrupted panel.
Catalogue ratings on the spreadsFour figures are printed with the series: 42 dB sound insulation, Class 3 water tightness, heat conduction cut by more than 70% and noise from the seal strip cut by more than 90%. Each one is a catalogue rating.
A sealed frame-to-sash jointFour special seal strips close the joint between frame and sash, paired with water blocking, drainage and anti-backflow details, which is the build behind the Class 3 catalogue water rating.
Six smart entry functionsWireless remote, an app system, video surveillance, a door opening system, a security system and a defence system are catalogued as the smart set for the leaf.
What US projects require
Glazing rules tighten in the high-velocity hurricane zones: the code requires impact-rated glazing and defined structural performance on the exterior envelope, and most spec writers work from the ASTM and Florida building code framework as the reference point. In practice the glazing build-up, the frame section and the hardware have to be stated on the quotation, line by line, against your zone and wind-borne debris category.
Adam Alux does not hold US test certifications. The bridge is the specification process: send the zone, the debris category and the opening schedule, and the glazing build-up, frame section and hardware layout come back confirmed against that project at quotation, with a finished test unit available before production.
Shipping to US ports
Modules ship in export-standard containers sized around the opening: glazed units travel upright with corner and edge protection for the trans-Pacific line. The loading plan, including modules per container for your mix, comes with the quotation, because it depends on frame depth and glass build-up rather than a fixed table.
Freight and port handling are confirmed per shipment, and transit time is quoted at order. Packing list and conformity documentation travel with the container.

FAQ
Frequently asked
Do your aluminium windows and doors ship to the USA?
Yes. The range ships to US ports in export-standard containers, and the loading plan for your opening mix is included with the quotation.
How is hurricane-zone glazing handled on a quotation?
The glazing build-up for a designated zone is confirmed line by line against your debris category at quotation. A finished test unit is available before production.
What is the M-24 pivot door series?
It is the off-axis pivot entrance door of our collection. The catalogue hangs a full-height leaf on a pivot set off its own axis, so the entrance swings from a single off-centre point and the closed face stays one panel.
What ratings does the catalogue print for it?
42 dB sound insulation, Class 3 water tightness, heat conduction cut by more than 70 per cent and noise from the seal strip cut by more than 90 per cent. All four are catalogue ratings.
