Sliding glass doors in Asilah
A large sliding door in Asilah links the living room to the terrace and the light of the Atlantic. We choose the system and the glazing according to your exposure to wind and sun.
What we do in Asilah
Large sliding doors that open the house onto the terrace, the garden or the sea, with very slim frames.
A sliding door replaces a section of wall with glass. The larger it is, the more the choice of system matters: frame stiffness, glazing, wind tightness. We offer minimalist systems (Strugal) and high-performance systems for exposed facades (Exlabesa).
What you gain
- Plenty of natural light
- Slim frames for an unobstructed view
- Systems suited to large dimensions and exposed facades
Technical details— for professionals and the curious
- Minimalist joinery
- Very slim profiles that reduce the visible part of the frame in favour of the glazing.
- Sliding with thermal break
- A sliding door whose frame includes an insulating strip, to better insulate against cold and heat.
- Profile inertia
- The stiffness of the profile against bending: essential so that a large opening doesn’t deform.

Why GMT Design in Asilah
Asilah is a small Atlantic coastal town south of Tangier. The air is salty all year round, and many houses are second homes: joinery that stands up to salt and needs little upkeep is a real advantage there.
What we take into account in Asilah
- Permanent salty air: marine-grade treatment and fixings
- Low upkeep for second homes
- Understated finishes, suited to the white architecture of the coast
Frequently asked questions
What upkeep does aluminium joinery need in Asilah?
Very little: rinsing with fresh water several times a year is generally enough to remove the salt, along with a gentle clean of the seals. Properly treated, aluminium rarely needs repainting.
What is the maximum width for a sliding door?
It depends on the system chosen and on wind exposure. We check feasibility during the study, before pricing.
Does a large glass door insulate against noise and heat?
Yes, provided the glazing and the system are well chosen. Acoustic laminated glass (two panes bonded around a noise-absorbing film) and a frame with a thermal break clearly improve comfort. We advise you according to the exposure of your home in Asilah.
How much does a sliding door cost?
Ballpark: around 2,700 DH/m² incl. VAT installed for the Strugal S90P system, around 3,600 DH/m² incl. VAT for the S88RP with thermal break. Adjusted for configuration, glazing and site access.
Can it be installed as a renovation?
Yes, we also replace existing openings, including in occupied buildings.
