Advantages of the GEALAN-COMFORT® threshold at the same level
| Modular system | Can be used in the following elements | Special mechanical drop-down seal |
|---|---|---|
| The sleeper is suitable for all frame variants of the S 9000 system platform (rebate seal, centre seal or S 9000 plus). It is based on the tried-and-tested standard threshold. In the lower part of the building there is a newly developed construction profile that raises the threshold and thus creates sufficient space for water drainage. |
|
In cooperation with the company Athmer, the drop-down seal was developed, which has proven itself in over 1 million test cycles. The seal results in an automatic level compensation of up to 3 mm. To protect against overloading, a parallel lowering and a stroke limitation are integrated. The inner profile as well as the sealing profile can be replaced at any time, even when installed, their renewal is no problem. The removable trigger of the mechanical drop-down seal helps to protect the product during the construction phase. The drop-down seal can be used in DIN L and DIN R and can be supplied in four different lengths:
|
| Highly impermeable | aluminium tread profiles for levelling flush with the floor |
|---|---|
| Thanks to the drop-down seal, the interior is sealed against driving rain and wind. The drop-down seal is integrated into the weatherboard construction on the wing. | Before the drop-down seal is inserted, the tread profiles are attached. This is no problem with the help of plastic support bridges. There, the aluminium step profiles are attached to the threshold. The existing stomata between the aluminium profiles are used to drain driving rain water in a targeted manner, namely via the inclined threshold level into the on-site drainage channels in front. To clean the water drainage area, the aluminium tread profiles can be removed at any time and then reinserted. |
