Hello,
how is it usually handled with large lift-and-slide doors regarding roller shutters? Is it possible to install standard roller shutters even for, for example, a 6m (20 feet) wide window area?
Best regards,
Marc

OK, let’s take it step by step:
Not quite 15 meters (49 feet), but still very long, yes. That’s why it would fit so well into the overall design. It would look great in the side views.
And of course, a live test would be conducted. Although I should point out that it wasn’t so much about the width of the door(s), but mainly about the feasible width of the roller shutters. Clearly, it makes sense to place the tracks where the potential door frames are, but I was generally curious about this, for example how it would be done with large glass surfaces only, meaning if there were no frames or doors.
The external tracks really don’t look great, but that’s exactly what I meant and wanted to see. Because then there is no reason to have a large window area if, later on, I might have to install a track because of the roller shutters. Then you can base the choice of window or door width directly on the feasible roller shutter size.
Thank you very much!

Even “when in doubt, accept the less favorable perspective,” I would rather say two and a half to two and three quarters meters (8.2 to 9 feet) than four meters (13 feet)Was it about the width or the rail?
He wanted to see the rail, and I posted him a picture.

The applied rails really don’t look very good, Those who think so (but in my opinion will be proven wrong by reality) could have the middle rail wrapped in the color of the window frames.

The mounted tracks really don’t look all that great, but that’s exactly what I meant and wanted to see. Because then there’s no reason for a large window area if I might have to install a track later for the roller shutters. So when choosing the width of the windows or doors, you can directly consider the roller shutter that’s possible.You naturally install the tracks where there is already a mullion from the window. Or is your glass surface actually one single pane? For example, we also have 6m (19.7 feet), but divided into 2 + 2 + 2. It still has to be affordable. The tracks can be installed easily there. A 3 + 3 split would also be helpful.
