The Pacific41™ system is preferred for larger family and architecturally designed homes exhibiting large expansive windows and doors.

Aesthetic appeal, functionality, increased glazing capacity and strength of internal components means the Pacific41™ system is perfect for taking the next step up for your aluminium joinery.

The Pacific41™ system can accommodate almost any combination of window and door configuration. Products such as the innovative Foldback™ Bifold, the iconic Ranchslider™ with optional Levelstep™ and the premium Euroslider™ are all available within the system.

All products within the range allow for double glazed insulated units up to 30mm thickness, a must for larger format windows and doors. Modern and sleek flat faced frame profiles are available across all product types with window sashes available in flush and flanged variants. Flat faced frames seamlessly integrate with both our Tasman35™ and Atlantic48™ systems, where required.
