Standard Stacking Wall System

The Standard Stacking Glass Wall system is a fully-framed, heavy duty wall which uses many of the same extrusions as the Folding Glass Wall system. It is designed to accommodate relatively heavy commercial or residential applications. Althought is it not generally used for exterior applications it does offer some degree of air, water, and sound isolation. This unique system provides an attractive method for separating rooms and have the added benefit of stacking into a closet or remote area.

Any glazing option is available for both stacking and folding panels, including horizontal mullions and decorative grid options. Panels can be held in place by keyed flush locks, non-keyed flushbolts or two point locks. If there is no sill, then dust proof floor strikes will be placed in the locking locations to receive the bolts.

Wood options include Mahogany or Spanish Cedar veneer. Upon special request, veneers of Western Red Cedar, Southern Yellow Pine, Douglas Fir, Northern White Pine, Redwood, and Cherry are available. Please visit our panel options page for more information on customizing your Stacking Wall system.

Sill options for stacking glass walls include:

• Dust Proof Floor Strike - There is no sill used for this option. The only penetrated areas in the floor are those required for locking hardware and dust proof floor strike.
• Surface Mount - An ADA compliant sill, the surface mount sill is suitable for showrooms and can withstand typical loads from most vehicles with rubber or pneumatic tires. It is also designed to provide moderate air and water control for walls partially exposed to an exterior environment.
• Recessed Tank - This sill is completely flush with the floor and includes a drain tank. It provides additional water control, a clean appearance, and completely eliminates any ADA concerns.(Draintubes manufactured by separate company.)
• Flush Idler - Full control of individual panels is provided with this sill; a channel for the idler bearings is located on the bottom of each panel. This application requires two full sets of tracks and is best suited for large paneled projects needing extra control.

Both of these Solar Innovations® wide open door systems utilize stainless steel trolley bearings developed to withstand a high-load capacity and the longevity required for large architectural applications. These bearings were specifically designed to provide smooth, quiet operation in virtually all conditions for years to come. Flush bolts or keyed locking hardware can be included in the bottom horizontal rails of the system while standard door hardware is provided for the operable door panel.
