For demanding building architecture
The ALR F42 Vitraplan door is a highly exclusive version of the ALR F42 door with wide glazing areas. The door is especially elegant thanks to offset, flush-fitting glazing. The frame profile is concealed, so nothing detracts from the clear overall appearance. Continuous glazing adds an eye-catching element to modern industrial structures and prestigious private buildings. Hörmann's proven finger trap protection for industrial sectional doors is also included in ALR F42 Vitraplan doors.

Two colours to choose from
The ALR F42 Vitraplan can be optimally integrated in the facade with glazings in brown and grey, as well as a dark frame profile colour that harmonises with the glass. This exclusive door fascinates with a mix of mirroring and transparency.

Exclusive Flush-Fitting Fully Glazed Architectural Statement

The Hormann ALR F42 Vitraplan represents the ultimate expression of glazed industrial sectional door design, featuring exclusive flush-fitting construction that creates a virtually seamless glass facade when closed. This premium door system delivers architectural sophistication unmatched by standard sectional doors, with its distinctive flush external surface creating an elegant, minimalist aesthetic ideal for prestige developments, flagship showrooms, and landmark commercial buildings.
 
The Vitraplan's unique flush-fitting design eliminates the traditional stepped profile of standard sectional doors, presenting a smooth, continuous external glazed surface. This creates spectacular transparent facades for premium vehicle showrooms, luxury retail, corporate headquarters, and design-led developments.
 

Flush-Fitting Engineering Excellence

The exclusive flush-fitting construction features specially designed aluminium sections creating smooth transitions between door panels. The external face presents a virtually uninterrupted glazed surface with minimal visual breaks, elevating building facades with clean lines and minimal visual clutter whilst maintaining full weather sealing and structural performance.

 

Premium Architectural Applications

The ALR F42 Vitraplan excels in:

• Flagship Vehicle Showrooms: Ultimate product presentation
• Corporate Headquarters: Architectural statement entrances
• Luxury Retail: Sophisticated transparent facades
• Landmark Buildings: Distinctive architectural features
• Aviation Facilities: Premium hangars for executive aircraft
 

Substantial Glazed Opening

Accommodates widths up to 6000mm and heights up to 7500mm, maintaining the premium flush-fitting aesthetic across the entire door area. The self-supporting aluminium construction preserves clean architectural lines without intermediate vertical supports.

 

Glazing Specifications

Standard double-pane glazing achieves U-values around 3.2 W/(m²·K). Optional triple-pane glazing improves to 3.0 W/(m²·K). ThermoFrame technology provides further enhancement. Real glass provides exceptional optical clarity and durability, crucial for maintaining premium appearance.
 

Weather Protection and Operation

Class 3 wind load resistance and watertightness maintain robust weather protection despite the refined appearance. Electric operation is standard, with premium operators providing whisper-quiet automated operation with soft-start/soft-stop functionality. Comprehensive safety features include finger trap protection, side trap guards, and spring break safeguards.
