# Frameless sliding glass in Alicante.

> Frameless sliding glass for terraces, porches and businesses in Alicante and on the Costa Blanca: how it works, when it fits and how to get a quote.

## What is frameless sliding glass?

Frameless sliding glass uses tempered glass panels that glide along parallel tracks and overlap when opened, without turning. It suits wide openings with no side room to stack panels and hospitality terraces opened every day. We install it in Alicante and from Valencia to Murcia, and quote after seeing and measuring the opening.

- Number of tracks: (to be confirmed)
- Maximum height: (to be confirmed)
- Warranty: (to be confirmed)

## Which spaces is frameless sliding glass for?

It works where the opening is long and straight and gets opened and closed every day in one movement. The panels never leave the track, so it is quick to use, which suits bars and restaurants that open up several times a day.

- Long terraces of flats and penthouses
- Villa porches facing the garden or pool
- Bar and restaurant terraces opened every day
- Shop and office fronts
- Openings where one side is blocked by a wall or a pillar

## How is sliding glass different from glass curtains?

Both systems close the opening without vertical frames. The difference is how they open and how much room the stacked panels take.

| Feature | Frameless sliding glass | Glass curtain |
| --- | --- | --- |
| How it opens | Panels slide and overlap | Panels turn and stack to one side |
| Clear opening | The strip of overlapped panels stays occupied | The opening is almost fully clear |
| Side space needed | None | Room to stack the panels |
| Daily use | Opens in one movement | Opens panel by panel |

## What is the process?

The same four steps for every system, from the first call to installation.

1. **Tell us about your space.** By phone, WhatsApp or the form: what you want to enclose, where it is and how you plan to use it.
2. **Site visit and measuring.** A technician sees the site, takes measurements and checks the floor, ceiling and orientation. Timing: (to be confirmed).
3. **Fixed quote.** You receive the system, materials and delivery time in writing. Timing: (to be confirmed).
4. **Made to measure and installed.** The system is made to fit your opening and we install it at your home or business. Timing: (to be confirmed).

## What can you combine with sliding glass?

Add a roof or a pergola and the space is closed from above too.

- [Glass curtains](https://luneks.es/en/glass-curtains/): Glass panels with no vertical frames that stack to one side.
- [Insulated glass curtains](https://luneks.es/en/insulated-glass-curtains/): Double glazing for using the terrace in winter too.
- [Retractable roofs](https://luneks.es/en/retractable-roofs/): A roof that opens and closes with the weather.
- [Fixed roofs](https://luneks.es/en/fixed-roofs/): A permanent roof in glass, polycarbonate or sandwich panel.
- [Bioclimatic pergola](https://luneks.es/en/bioclimatic-pergola/): Adjustable louvres that control sun, shade and airflow.
- [Tensioned fabric pergola](https://luneks.es/en/tensioned-fabric-pergola/): Shade from fabric on an aluminium frame, with no building work.

## Questions about frameless sliding glass

### How much does frameless sliding glass cost?

It depends on the width and height of the opening, the number of panels and tracks, the glass and the aluminium finish. We do not publish prices: we prepare the quote once we have seen and measured the opening.

### What are the drawbacks of sliding glass?

When open, the panels stay overlapped inside the opening, so part of the width is still taken by glass. If you want the opening completely clear, a glass curtain that stacks to one side is the better fit.

### What types of sliding glass are there?

Systems differ in the number of tracks and panels: the more tracks, the tighter the panels stack and the wider the clear opening. (to be confirmed)

### When is sliding glass better than a glass curtain?

When there is no side space for stacked panels, when the opening is used many times a day, or when you would rather slide the panels than turn them.

### Can sliding glass be locked?

Owners of ground floor flats and businesses ask this often. (to be confirmed)

### Does frameless sliding glass let water in?

It protects from wind and rain, but single glass without frames is not fully watertight. If you need protection from cold and noise, the option is the insulated glass curtain.
