Veka Vekamotion 82 stands at the very top of sliding-structure engineering. It is a lift-and-slide system (HS-Portal) built specifically to span enormous openings as wide as 6 meters. Its remarkable hardware lets you raise a sash weighing up to 400 kg with a turn of the handle and then glide it aside with ease — literally a single finger will do. The effect erases the line between indoors and out, merging the living room with a terrace or winter garden into one continuous living space.
The system is built on a multi-chamber profile with an 82 mm sash installation depth and robust steel reinforcement. Unlike ordinary sliding doors, Vekamotion 82 offers superb energy efficiency and air-tightness thanks to a dual-circuit sealing system that engages as the sash lowers. With the option of a barrier-free threshold set flush to the floor, the system becomes an ideal choice for families with children and people with reduced mobility, delivering premium comfort and safety.

PVC or Aluminium Windows: Which Is Better for Your Spanish Home?
PVC and aluminium are the two frames you will be quoted for almost every window in Spain, and the right answer changes from Valencia to Vigo.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions about Veka Vekamotion 82
How does the lift-and-slide (HS) mechanism work and what panel weight can it carry?
Vekamotion 82 is an HS-Portal (Lift) system: turning the handle lifts the sash off its seals so it glides on a carriage, then drops it back down to compress the seals tight when closed. Built on an 82 mm sash and 194 mm frame with Class "A" (3 mm wall) profiles for rigidity, it carries a sash weighing up to 400 kg with a suitable carriage.
What are the maximum dimensions and opening layouts for this portal?
The structure spans up to 6.5 m wide in white profile, opening up panoramic glazing that lighter window systems cannot reach. Available opening layouts include:
- A — 2 sashes
- C — 4 sashes
- K — 3 sashes, plus further combinations
What glazing can the door hold and how warm is the finished structure?
The glass rebate accepts units up to 54 mm thick, seated in a 20-25 mm rebate depending on the bead. Triple-chamber, tempered, laminated and multifunctional units are supported, with laminated advised for large panes. The completed door reaches Uw ≤ 0.78 W/(m²·K) (frame Uf 1.3 W/m²K), with sound insulation around 44 dB and Class 9A watertightness.
Does the threshold allow barrier-free, step-free access?
Yes. Vekamotion 82 uses a PVC sill with first-rate thermal insulation that can be fitted barrier-free, sitting flush with the floor. This removes the trip step for wheelchairs, prams and easy patio access while keeping the threshold thermally broken rather than relying on a cold metal track.
How does Vekamotion 82 compare to the Vekamove 76 slider and the 82 MAX?
Vekamove 76 is a smart slider on a 150 mm frame taking glazing up to 48 mm; Vekamotion 82's 194 mm frame and 54 mm glazing suit far heavier portal-scale spans. The Vekamotion 82 MAX variant trims the fixed sash profile for +7 cm height and +3.5 cm width of glass and improves thermals to Uw ≤ 0.73 W/(m²·K).
When is this lift-and-slide door not the right choice?
At €1,100-1,500 it is the flagship HS portal and overkill for an ordinary opening. For a smaller, lighter sliding aperture the Vekamove 76 slider (from €750) is far more economical, and a standard casement is cheaper still. Reserve Vekamotion 82 for genuinely large or heavy panoramic glazing where its 400 kg carriage and 6.5 m span are needed.
