Modern residential entrance with aluminium-framed glazed doors and windows
SAC // Architectural Entry Systems
System Overview

Entries designed for daily use and lasting impact

An entrance is one of the most heavily used parts of a façade. The frame, leaf, glass, hardware and surrounding structure must work together to manage repeated operation, security, weather exposure and the visual expectations of the building.

SAC Facades delivers residential statement doors, commercial hinged and pivot doors, glazed shopfronts and systems prepared for automatic sliding integration. Frame dimensions and hardware are selected for the door size, traffic level, access requirements and locking strategy.

We coordinate thresholds, closers, pivots, mortice locks, panic hardware, access control and adjoining glazing with the builder and consultant team before the door is released to fabrication.
