SL-16 Aluminum Flush Door
A versatile, heavy-duty yet lightweight door with aluminium stiles and rails, tie rod construction, and injected high-density closed-cell polyurethane foam core.
Durable Commercial Doors with a Refined Design
Debuting over four decades ago, the SL-16 Aluminum Flush Door from Special-Lite® is a testament to timeless elegance, functionality, and innovation.
This entrance door is designed to meet the challenges of contemporary architecture, but it offers more than just aesthetic appeal. Its sleek, minimalist look blends seamlessly into any industrial or institutional environment, handling moderate to heavy foot traffic effortlessly. Choose a smooth, fluted, stainless steel or embossed texture for your aluminum doors.
Engineered to Withstand Harsh Conditions
What sets this, and many other Special-Lite doors, apart is its lightweight yet durable construction. Unlike traditional solid doors, which strain hardware and framing, our aluminum doors offer unmatched strength without the added weight. Thanks to our poured-in-place polyurethane core, each door is a solid, sealed unit with exceptional impact resistance and flexural strength.
- Stile and rail construction uses extruded 6063-T6 aluminum alloys.
- Mitered corners and angle blocks are secured by full-width galvanized steel tie rods.
- Internal reinforcements provide secure hardware attachment.
- Door face sheets are made of architectural-quality 5005 aluminum.
