cDesign
Due to its sharp lining at ordinary or traditional aluminium systems the design looks very commercial. Without touching the 6.0 system, no one will be able to figure out if the display is showing an uPVC or wooden window. The complete design is following the look and feel of the traditional doors and windows.

Hardware
Lingel 6.0 uses complete uPVC hardware range for the aluminium windows. This initiative is considered as a milestone since the synergy of both systems uPVC and aluminium is helping to get the product to an unmatched level.

Performance of sliding windows
The sliding shutters can be fabricated before glass fixing for complete water tightness. This system further assures that the performance especially for all heavy glass units are going to perform like the lift and slide system. (That premium Lift and Slide systems are already fabricated the same way).

Lift and Slide
Lingel 6.0 brings affordable system with no compromise on performance and quality of the unit, Schmidt claims. He adds, “First time in the industry, we are offering a 4-track system in lift and slide. The moveable third track can be used for extra-large doors as a glass shutter, or for smaller units as inbuilt sliding mosquito sash.”

Casement openable windows
The system is designed in a way so that friction hinges can be used without compromise and easy cleaning of the shutters is possible. All friction hinges are getting fixed with machine screws for maximum tightness of the connection so that the safety of the heavy sashes will be assured.

Further the system has the provision of fixing security grills by the customer and is done during fabrication. The fixing of those grills can be done without steel frame. The grill bars or strips are fixed without visible screws.

Similar to Lingel uPVC or wood doors and window systems, Lingel 6.0 is able to provide mosquito openable mesh shutters. This mesh shutters are multi-point locked and can be provided with:
• USA fabric mesh
• SS 304 mesh
• Unbreakable security mesh.

Slide and folding solution
Lingel Windows and Doors introduced low threshold slide and fold system confirming with the water tightness. At the flooring, the system is as less as 12 mm (half inch) above the final floor level. The flooring cut-out has to be as less as 20 mm (less than 1 inch) as well. Its slide and fold systems are starting from 3 panels and can go up to 6 panels. Each panel can take the maximum weight of 80 kg and 900 mm in width. The height will be only limited due to the restriction of the overall weight of the shutter.

Entrance door system
With 60 mm wide section and the maximum glass thickness of 36 mm. The company is able to deliver doors shutters with up to 150 kgs per panel hinges that can be chosen according to weight, design and choice of the customer.

As uPVC hardware range is used, all doors are having a strong multi-point system and the heavy uPVC door handle system well. The bottom of the shutter can be sealed on request with movable door seals. It means while closing the door a gasket automatically moves from the shutter towards the flooring. This assures a perfect sealing against dust and rainwater.

For the fabricator
It has been designed that within a minimal range of accessories (glazing beads, connector angles and hardware) all window combination can be fabricated. This keeps the inventory slim and the cost benefit can be given to its customer.

The system is further designed that the corner angles has to be elusively machine pressed. Due to this strong requirement, the company is assuring that any point of time the maximum strength of the unit is guaranteed without any possible compromise during fabrication.

Starting with profile range of around 30 different profiles, Lingel Windows and Doors are able to fabricate and supply all types of doors and windows.

• Villas and bungalows
• High end residential projects
• Windows with security requirement
• Water tight window solution
• Best performance for noise reduction.
