Full Vision Sectional Door — RAX Door Technology
01 · Overview

Maximum Visibility, Modern Aesthetics

Full vision sectional doors combine aluminum frames with transparent panels (polycarbonate, acrylic, or tempered glass) to create doors that flood interiors with natural light while maintaining security and weather protection. Unlike standard steel sectional doors that block visibility, full vision doors provide unobstructed views through the entire door opening — ideal for showrooms, fire stations, retail storefronts, and modern architectural applications where aesthetics and visibility are priorities.

RAX manufactures full vision sectional doors with 6063-T5 extruded aluminum frames (40–60 mm depth) and polycarbonate (PC) multi-wall panels. PC panels offer 200× the impact resistance of glass, weighing only 1.2 g/cm³, with light transmission of 60–82%. Aluminum frames are available in natural, black, white, gray, or custom RAL colors. EPDM elastomer seals along top, bottom, and horizontal joints maintain weather resistance from -40°C to +120°C. Wind resistance rated to Class 3 (700 N/m²). Operating speed up to 2 m/s (vs. 0.1–0.3 m/s for traditional doors).

Full vision doors are best suited for car dealerships, fire stations, retail storefronts, restaurants, sports facilities, car washes, and distribution centers where natural lighting and modern appearance are valued. They are not recommended for climate-controlled spaces requiring maximum insulation (standard steel sectional doors outperform in thermal performance).

02 · Key Features

Engineered for Visibility and Performance

Aluminum Frame Construction

6063-T5 extruded aluminum alloy forms rectangular frames with central support structures. Frame depth 40–60 mm. Available in natural, black, white, gray, or custom RAL colors. Lightweight yet rigid, resistant to corrosion and UV degradation.

Polycarbonate Panels

Multi-wall PC panels with “box” pattern design provide 200× the impact resistance of glass. Light transmission 60–82%. Density approximately 1.2 g/cm³ (lighter than glass). Shatterproof — ideal for high-traffic areas and safety-conscious applications.

EPDM Weather Seals

EPDM elastomer seals along top, bottom, and horizontal joints maintain elasticity from -40°C to +120°C. Bottom seal uses brush or wiper design to accommodate uneven floors. Vertical edges use cut-groove track seals. Wind resistance Class 3 (700 N/m²).

High-Speed Operation

Operating speed up to 2 m/s (traditional doors typically 0.1–0.3 m/s). Torsion spring balance mechanism with standard 10,000-cycle or heavy-duty high-cycle rating. IP54 motor protection for dust and water resistance.

Large Size Capability

Maximum width 6,000 mm, maximum height 8,000 mm. A 6×8 meter door weighs approximately 600–900 kg depending on frame and panel configuration. Suitable for large commercial and industrial openings.

Lift Configurations

Standard lift, high lift, and vertical lift options available. Track selection depends on overhead beam structure and ceiling height. Custom track layouts for unusual openings.

04 · Applications

Where Full Vision Doors Excel

Car Dealerships & Showrooms

Display vehicles with natural lighting and modern appearance. Full visibility attracts customers and showcases inventory. Aluminum frames provide clean, contemporary aesthetics that complement modern dealership architecture.

Fire Stations

Fast door operation (up to 2 m/s) enables rapid vehicle dispatch. Natural light reduces energy consumption. Full visibility allows personnel to see approaching vehicles. Heavy-duty high-cycle spring rating for high-frequency use.

Retail Storefronts

Maximize display area and attract customers with transparent doors. Natural lighting reduces interior lighting costs. Modern appearance enhances brand image. Suitable for shopping malls, boutiques, and commercial entrances.

Restaurants & Sports Facilities

Create open, inviting atmospheres with natural light and visibility. Full vision doors blend indoor and outdoor spaces. Ideal for patios, gymnasiums, and recreational facilities where aesthetics matter.

Distribution Centers

Natural lighting reduces energy consumption in large warehouse spaces. Full visibility improves safety by allowing workers to see approaching vehicles. High-speed operation (2 m/s) supports frequent truck traffic.

Aviation Maintenance & Clean Rooms

Large hangar openings require abundant natural light for maintenance work. Pharmaceutical clean rooms benefit from visibility into operations while maintaining environmental control. Full vision doors provide both.

What is the difference between full vision and standard sectional doors?

Full vision doors use aluminum frames with transparent panels (PC, acrylic, or tempered glass) for maximum visibility and natural lighting. Standard sectional doors use steel panels with PU foam cores for insulation and security. Full vision doors operate faster (up to 2 m/s vs. 0.1–0.3 m/s) but provide less insulation. If strict temperature control is required, choose standard steel sectional doors.

Should I choose PC panels or tempered glass?

PC (polycarbonate) panels offer 200× the impact resistance of glass, are lighter (1.2 g/cm³), and shatterproof — ideal for high-traffic areas and safety-conscious applications. Light transmission is 60–82%. Tempered glass provides higher clarity (~90% transmission) but can break. For fire stations, sports facilities, and car dealerships, PC panels are recommended.

What applications are full vision doors best for?

Car dealerships, fire stations, retail storefronts, restaurants, sports facilities, car washes, distribution centers, aviation maintenance facilities, and pharmaceutical clean rooms. Any application where natural lighting, visibility, and modern aesthetics are priorities.

How is the weather sealing?

EPDM elastomer seals along top, bottom, and horizontal joints maintain elasticity from -40°C to +120°C. Bottom seal uses brush or wiper design to accommodate uneven floors. Vertical edges use cut-groove track seals. Wind resistance rated to Class 3 (700 N/m²).

What is the maximum size?

Maximum width 6,000 mm, maximum height 8,000 mm. A 6×8 meter door weighs approximately 600–900 kg depending on frame and panel configuration. Custom sizes available on request.

Do you provide installation?

No — RAX is a pure manufacturer. Doors ship with English installation manuals, wiring diagrams, and remote support. We recommend using a qualified local installer who can verify structural capacity and proper track alignment.

What is the lead time and warranty?

Standard configurations: 12–20 days. Custom first order: 20–35 days. Repeat orders: 15–20 days. Warranty: frames 10 years, panels 5 years, automation components 5 years. Warranty replacement parts shipped via DHL/FedEx in 5–7 days.
