Frequently Asked Questions
The ES-V400 is an Elite uPVC, thermally efficient sliding glass door built for large panels and smooth operation, with robust sealing that delivers strong thermal and acoustic insulation. We install it on patio and lanai openings where a homeowner wants the energy and sound performance of a reinforced vinyl frame on a wide glass wall. It's offered in OX, XO, OXO, and OXXO configurations.
The ES-V400 carries a Large-Missile-Impact (LMI) rating and is FBC-certified, but this profile does not list a Miami-Dade NOA or HVHZ approval, so we won't represent it as HVHZ-approved for Miami-Dade or Broward. If your address is in the High Velocity Hurricane Zone, we'll confirm exactly which approval applies, and where an HVHZ-stamped door is required we'll point you to an ES Windows impact line that carries the appropriate NOA. We always verify the rating against your opening at the time we quote.
The ES-V400 scales from a 96 by 96-inch two-panel OX or XO, to a 144-inch-wide three-panel OXO, up to a 192-inch-wide four-panel OXXO, all at a 96-inch height and a design pressure of +65/-65 psf. The frame depth is 4-9/16 inches with a 5-7/16-inch sight line and a 4-1/16-inch interlock. We'll verify the right configuration and DP for your opening and wind zone before ordering.
The ES-V400 uses 1-inch insulating and insulating-laminated glass, typically with a 90% argon fill, and posts strong numbers thanks to that reinforced vinyl frame. Clear builds run a U-factor around 0.45 to 0.46, and low-E options like SB70 over clear reach a U-factor of about 0.31 to 0.32 with an SHGC near 0.19, all with a condensation resistance of 38. We'll match the glass package to your sun exposure and energy goals when we put the estimate together.
The ES-V400 comes in a standard white finish and is offered in flush (standard) and fin frame types so we can match the install detail to your wall and rough opening. The frame is aluminum-reinforced uPVC. We'll recommend the frame style and glass build that suit your patio opening during the consultation.
We don't quote a flat price because the installed cost of an ES-V400 depends on the door's size, whether it's a two-, three-, or four-panel layout, the glass package you choose, the frame type, and the condition of the existing opening. Armor Pro provides a free, in-person estimate so you get an accurate figure for your specific patio opening.
ES Windows is the residential and light-commercial fenestration brand of Tecnoglass Inc. (NYSE: TGLS), and the products are manufactured at the company's complex in Barranquilla, Colombia. What makes the brand unusual is that the parent makes its own architectural glass and aluminum extrusions and then assembles the finished windows and doors in-house, so a single company stands behind the whole assembly rather than buying glass and frames from outside suppliers. We install and service ES Windows products throughout South Florida.
ES Windows is the fenestration brand; Tecnoglass Inc. is the publicly traded parent that owns it and consolidates the glass-making, aluminum-extrusion (Alutions), and window-assembly operations under one roof. For a homeowner the practical takeaway is that a large, publicly accountable manufacturer stands behind the warranty and the product. As your installer, we handle the order, the permit, and the installation regardless of the corporate structure.
A sliding glass door (SGD) glides on a bottom track and stacks panels to one side, giving a wide glass opening to a patio or lanai. The impact version uses laminated glass and a heavy reinforced frame tested to the HVHZ standard, so it protects the largest opening in most homes without needing shutters.
