Khidkie™ Aluminium Systems
The KHIDKIE™ Sliding Folding Series is a high-performance aluminium system that transforms spaces by seamlessly merging indoors with outdoors. Engineered with precision folding mechanics and robust aluminium profiles, this system delivers smooth panel movement, structural stability, and long-term reliability. Designed for wide-span openings, it allows panels to stack neatly aside, creating unobstructed views, effortless operation, and a refined architectural aesthetic.
The Sliding Folding Series is engineered for projects where complete opening, spatial flexibility, and architectural impact are key requirements. Designed around precision hardware and strong aluminium profiles, this system enables large openings to be used dynamically without fixed barriers, making spaces more open and adaptable.
Sliding Folding systems are ideal for large balconies, living areas, villas, hospitality spaces, cafés, and showrooms, where uninterrupted access and openness are essential. The system is especially effective in projects that demand maximum clear opening while maintaining structural control and smooth operation.
Fabricators choose the Sliding Folding Series for its well-defined component logic, reliable hardware integration, and predictable alignment during installation. The system allows precise fabrication, supports multiple panel configurations, and delivers consistent performance when accuracy and detailing matter most.
A precision-engineered folding system built around dedicated frames, controlled panel movement, and system-matched components for large, fully openable spans.
The Sliding Folding 50MM Series from Khidkie™ is a complete aluminium folding system developed around dedicated structural profiles rather than adapted sliding sections. The system begins with a purpose-built 50MM Side Frame (S 3113), which anchors the folding panels and controls lateral alignment, ensuring consistent movement and accurate stacking during operation.
Load management in the Sliding Folding Series is handled primarily through the 50MM Top Frame (S 3121), engineered to carry the operational weight of multiple folding shutters. This top frame works in coordination with the 50MM Bottom Frame (S 3110), which acts as a guiding and stabilising base, keeping panel movement straight, balanced, and predictable across the entire opening width.
The system supports multiple shutter configurations based on performance requirements. The 50MM SGU Shutter (2038) is used where lighter, single-glass panels are preferred, while the 50MM DGU Shutter (S 3112) and DGU Shutter with Groove (SSF 006) are designed to accommodate double-glazed units for improved acoustic insulation and thermal control. Each shutter profile is proportioned to maintain structural rigidity while allowing smooth folding action.
Glass and panel fixation is achieved through a dedicated accessory ecosystem rather than universal clips. The series includes SGU Clips (SSF 008), DGU Clips, and Laminate Clips (S 3111), each designed to match the respective shutter type. For projects requiring glass or panel thickness adjustment, the SGU Reducer Clip (SSF 010) and Laminate Reducer Clip (SSF 011) provide precise seating without compromising panel strength or alignment.
Panel interaction and alignment during folding is controlled using the Center Adapter (SSF 009), a critical component that ensures smooth transition between panels as they slide and fold. This adapter maintains consistent spacing, reduces stress on hinges and rollers, and prevents uneven load transfer during repeated operation cycles.
Unlike conventional sliding systems, the Sliding Folding 50MM Series is engineered around movement
sequencing rather than simple linear motion. Every component — from frames to shutters to clips — is
designed to work as a unified system, ensuring:
• Controlled and smooth folding action
• Stable panel stacking without sagging
• Accurate alignment over large spans
• Long-term durability under frequent use
With its dedicated frame set, multiple shutter options, and system-specific accessories, the Sliding Folding 50MM Series is suited for large balcony openings, villa living spaces, commercial fronts, cafés, and showrooms where full opening capability is a functional requirement — not just a design preference. This series is not an adaptation of sliding technology; it is a purpose-built folding architecture system designed for precision, control, and scale.
Dedicated side, top and bottom frames engineered specifically for controlled sliding and folding panel movement.
Supports single-glass, double-glazed and grooved DGU shutters to balance weight, insulation and performance.
Dedicated SGU, DGU and laminate clips with reducer options ensure precise glass seating and long-term stability.
Engineered center adapter maintains uniform spacing, smooth folding sequence and stress-free panel interaction.
Enables near-complete opening of wide spans with stable stacking and predictable movement.
