Sliding Door.
A sliding door can add beauty and panoramic views to homes of any type or size, while inviting in a lot of natural light. Sliding doors come in many different varieties, such as lift-and-slide, concealed pocketing custom lift-and-slide, or tilt-and-slide.
Lift-and-slide doors feature a handle both inside and outside so it’s easy to open and close from either side. They can be built to fit full glass walls that open to the outside world. The Chablais team can also build configurations for center-meet designs, corner-meet designs, telescoping sashes, or wall pockets.
Tilt-and-slide doors are great for ventilation and are typically used for balconies. Their use is similar to a minivan’s door, with the sash sliding on an adjacent frame.

Lift & Slide Doors
Our lift & slide doors can be produced in enormous dimensions for full walls of glass that open. Featuring an effortless operating technique, innovative G-U hardware lifts the sash off the floor and slides it away from the opening. Various track thresholds provide “barrier-free” living, while providing superb thermal breaks and energy efficiency in even the largest sizes. Configurations are available in center-meet designs, corner-meet designs, telescoping sashes or wall pockets.
Two handles + lock
When using lift and slide as an entry door, it is very convenient to be able to lock or unlock from the outside. Below the handle is a locking mechanism with a European cylinder.
Tilt and slide
WHEN…WHERE?
Commonly called tilt and slide or parallel slider, it gives you great ventilation to complement tilt and turn windows.
Sliding function is similar to a mini van door. The sash will pull out of the frame and slide on the adjacent fixed frame.
Tilt and slide are mainly used as a window and a balcony sliding door.

Custom Lift & Slide Doors
Precision manufacturing ensures superior durability and long-term performance beyond standard sliding doors. Our custom lift and slide systems are engineered for smooth, effortless operation, allowing sash weights up to 400 lbs to be handled with ease — even in large-format openings.
We also design custom lift and slide windows, including fully engineered solutions for both residential and architectural applications.
Advanced options such as concealed pocketing lift and slide doors and windows, paired with concealed pocketing screen systems, enhance both performance and aesthetics. These systems integrate seamlessly into custom mahogany or bronze-clad lift and slide assemblies, delivering a refined, minimalist appearance with maximum opening capacity.
