Precision-engineered extruded aluminum window and sliding door systems manufactured in Foshan, China. Built to international structural, acoustic, and thermal performance benchmarks.
As a primary manufacturing hub for architectural fenestration, Foshan integrates raw aluminum billet extrusion, precision surface anodizing, multi-cavity thermal break assembly, and structural testing under one industrial umbrella.
Utilizing high-grade primary aluminum billet alloy 6063-T5 / 6060-T66 with nominal wall thicknesses ranging from 1.6mm to 3.0mm. Engineered for high wind load deflection (ASTM E330) and structural stability across large-span patio openings.
Equipped with Polyamide PA66-GF25 structural thermal barrier strips. Reduces frame U-values dramatically to satisfy NFRC, Title 24, and European CE energy efficiency regulations for low-carbon residential and commercial builds.
Every sliding door production batch undergoes water tightness tests (up to 700 Pa), air infiltration verification, multi-point lock endurance cycles, and salt spray resistance evaluation for coastal applications.
For architectural specifiers, general contractors, and B2B importers, assessing structural performance requires examining material composition, sealing systems, and glass unit assembly.

Driven by net-zero building codes and modern architectural aesthetics, global demand for Chinese aluminum fenestration is shifting from simple commodity procurement to highly specialized engineering solutions.
Modern architectural residential projects increasingly demand invisible frame profiles. Sighting widths of interlock stiles are shrinking down to 16mm to 25mm without compromising structural integrity or wind load deflection capacity.
Heavy-duty lift-and-slide doors weighing over 400kg per sash are transitioning toward concealed electric motor drives, smartphone app controls, rain sensors, and home automation network connectivity (Zigbee/Matter protocol).
International developers in North America, Europe, and Australia prioritize suppliers offering verified Environmental Product Declarations (EPD) and low-carbon hydro-powered aluminum extrusions to satisfy green building credits (LEED / BREEAM).
Understanding how modern extrusion geometry, sealing gaskets, and hardware engineering combine to prevent draft, water infiltration, and operational fatigue.
In heavy-duty patio doors, the lift-and-slide mechanism decompresses internal EPDM rubber gaskets during movement for effortless gliding, locking firmly into place when closed for total weatherproofing.
Multi-stage subterranean drainage tracks prevent water back-flow during storm surges up to 700 Pa water pressure, effectively redirecting rainwater outward via hidden one-way flap valves.
Replacing traditional aluminum glass spacers with composite stainless steel-polypropylene warm-edge spacers reduces thermal bridging at glass edges, preventing interior condensation build-up.
Equipped with heavy-duty dual-wheel stainless steel bearings rated for 300kg to 500kg sash capacities, tested over 100,000 continuous opening/closing operational cycles without degradation.
Direct answers to technical, commercial, and logistical questions when importing custom aluminum windows and sliding doors from China.
Vexis uses primary 6063-T5 / T66 extruded aluminum profiles with structural wall thicknesses tailored to job specifications (typically 1.6mm to 3.0mm for doors). For thermal isolation, we incorporate high-spec Technoform or domestic PA66-GF25 (25% glass fiber reinforced polyamide) thermal break strips, ensuring superior dimensional stability, structural rigidity, and thermal decoupling.
Yes. Every order is custom engineered to architectural shop drawings. Our technical R&D team configures glass units (e.g., Double Low-E, Triple Glazed Argon-filled, Laminated Hurricane-rated glass), frame cavity insulation foam, and multi-point locking points to meet strict local codes such as AS2047 in Australia, NFRC/AAMA in the USA, or CE standards in Europe.
Export protection is critical. Finished profiles are wrapped with protective film, foam edge guards, and plastic shrink wrap. Assembled frames or glass panels are packed inside fully enclosed, fumigated wooden crates or steel A-frame racks with rubber cushioning. This ensures complete protection against ocean salt air corrosion, moisture, and impact damage during long-distance container freight.
Standard production lead times are generally 25 to 35 business days following shop drawing approval and deposit receipt. For specialized surface treatments such as customized fluorocarbon (PVDF) colors or non-standard extrusions, lead times range from 35 to 45 days. Rapid-track production scheduling is available for urgent commercial developments.
Vexis provides full AutoCAD shop drawings, 3D section details, hardware adjustment manuals, and step-by-step video installation tutorials for every custom system. For large-scale commercial developments, remote video engineering consultations or on-site technical advisory teams can be deployed to assist your local installation crews.
Absolutely. Importers, architects, developers, and trade buyers are encouraged to visit our 30,000 m² factory and 1,500 m² state-of-the-art exhibition hall in Lishui Town, Foshan, Guangdong. Virtual live video factory tours and sample shipments are also provided upon request for verification.
