HST - modern sliding systems
HST is a modern solution that many investors have already come to love. This system perfectly fits the needs of today's architecture. First of all, it allows the creation of large glazing, which makes the external part of the property a unified whole, and allows residents to enjoy the view without restrictions.
The HST solution is considered an exclusive proposal that will satisfy the needs of even the most demanding investors. The element that distinguishes it from other solutions is the true absence of architectural barriers. Here it is possible to use a low threshold, and with the use of special overlays even its complete elimination and leveling it with the floor surface.
In addition to their modern appearance, they are characterized by maximum airtightness, which is why they are recommended for energy-efficient passive buildings.

PSK - stand-off-sliding doors
The PSK system is otherwise known as a stand-off-sliding system because of its structure. The closed window forms a unified surface with the fixed part, and only during opening it jumps onto the side guide rail of the door, which is located in front of the fixed glazing. In order for this to happen, the sash must first be drawn towards itself and then moved sideways. The opening system itself is slightly more complicated than the HST solution, but it also allows the door to be left in the tilted position as in traditional windows.
Another characteristic element for this system, is the need for a slightly higher threshold, the height of which depends on the chosen solution, but most often it is a few centimeters. Some customers compromise and opt for a PSK sliding system with a higher threshold, but in an economical price version. This is an ideal solution for apartments and small spaces.

Smart Slide System
Sliding doors in the Smart Slide system, is a modern solution that helps optimize the use of space inside the room. When opened, the door does not interfere with the living space, which allows you to arrange it as you wish. The operation of this system is very similar to the traditional HST, but has several innovations. Let's start with the technical issues. First of all, the carriages with which the window slides along the rail are not visible. An important element that allows to achieve better thermal insulation parameters is the fact that the gasket is located around the perimeter of the frame is pressed precisely when closing the sash. The system also allows the window to be locked in any position, leaving only a small opening for ventilation.
The moving part in this system can reach larger sizes, which allows you to create large-sized glazing with wide passages. However, using the Smart Slide system, you don't have to worry about complicated opening or that the door will move hard - the sash slides extremely lightly.
This system is an alternative to the more expensive solution, which is the HST, and practically does not differ from its capabilities except for one detail. In Smart Slide it is necessary to use a small threshold, but it is possible to partially hide it in the floor.
