About the JD47 System
The JD47 is a non-thermal aluminium shopfront door system designed for retail, commercial, and hospitality applications where maximum glazing area and slim sightlines are the priority. With a 47mm frame depth and 50mm sightlines, the JD47 keeps frame profiles to a minimum so your client's frontage stays visually open. The system accepts glazing from 6mm single panes up to 28mm sealed units, making it suitable for everything from simple display windows to double-glazed shop entrances. Four header bar options cover both standard manual doors and automatic operator integration, so you can use the same system across an entire shopfront scheme — including curtain walling tie-ins. We fabricate JD47 shopfront doors with integral external beading for improved security, anti-finger trap profiles where specified, and a slim pocket channel option for narrow doorways. Every door is jig-tested in our Warrington workshop, glazed and beaded, then delivered as a complete kit ready to fit on site.
