Thermally insulated bi-fold system with large selection of types, quiet running and outstanding weathertightness
The thermally insulated Schüco ASS 70 FD (Folding Door) bi-fold system impresses with narrow face widths and offers a wide range of types with outstanding weathertightness for use in outdoor areas.
The visually appealing system opens up a variety of design options thanks to attractive opening types, such as the 90° corner including a flat, thermally insulated threshold for barrier-free access.
The magnetic retaining catch with an elegant design and matching flat door handle is available as an additional design option.
The flexible and quiet vent stacks can be folded to the right, left, inwards or outwards as required.

Schüco Façade System FWS 50
High-performance mullion/transom façade with 50 mm face width – the basis for a variety of solutions
The Schüco FWS 50 façade system is an impressive basic system for façades and skylight areas with a high level of flexibility and attractive design options, including optimised fabrication and installation processes. Thanks to a broad system range, solutions for the most varied requirements and applications can be implemented.
A transparent system solution integrated in the profile for spandrel safety barriers blends seamlessly and elegantly into the external façade appearance. The required safety barrier loading for floor-to-ceiling opening units and low spandrel heights can be implemented with consistent profile face widths and a continuous profile.
The mullion/transom façade with 50 mm face widths offers a high degree of design freedom with a large selection of pressure plates and façade cover caps as well as the combination with Schüco window, door and sliding systems.
System-optimised components guarantee the simple and reliable integration of electrical components, e.g. for automated Schüco door or sun shading installations.
With the mullion/transom façade, Schüco is once again fulfilling its obligation to create ecologically sustainable products. The Schüco FWS 50.SI (Super Insulated) system option has been awarded the Silver “Cradle to Cradle Certified™” sustainability label by the independent C2CPII institute in cooperation with EPEA in Hamburg for its recycling properties and minimal toxin content.

Schüco Window System AWS 50
Wide variety of window solutions for international markets
The thermally insulated standard window system for the 50 mm basic depth offers extensive solutions from a single source to suit a range of requirements.
It is based on the functional and design properties of the aluminium system: benefits such as narrow face widths and concealed fittings are combined in perfectly integrated components for inward and outward-opening windows.
The high level of flexibility of the system enables a variety of uses as a punched opening, ribbon window or façade insert unit, as well as in combination with Schüco door systems.
An additional benefit for specifiers and architects is that the window system can be designed in a number of different opening types such as side-hung and turn/tilt vents, bottom-hung toplights or barrier-free window doors.
An outward-opening window design with centre gasket is also available as a double-vent window with burglar resistance in accordance with test procedure PAS 24.
As part of the Schüco AWS system platform, the window system offers a wide range of profiles, including corner mullions, structural mullions, symmetrical and asymmetrical mullions, as well as a number of design variations and additional combination options, such as with Schüco sun shading and ventilation systems.
Schüco AWS 50 thereby sets standards in terms of planning flexibility and offers attractive window solutions for meeting the requirements of international markets
