Glass Expanse Slide-and-Stack Doors and Windows
Glass Expanse creates custom slide-and-stack glass door and window systems designed to connect interiors with outdoor living areas, improve natural light, and preserve expansive views.
Unlike conventional sliding systems, each glass panel moves independently along a top-hung track and stacks neatly at the side of the opening. This flexible configuration allows builders and homeowners to open an entire wall, create a partial opening, or keep the system fully enclosed as conditions change.
Designed and manufactured in Belton, Texas, Glass Expanse products offer a distinctive solution for custom homes, outdoor entertaining spaces, restaurants, offices, and other architectural applications. Learn more about Glass Expanse

- Door heights available up to 10 feet

The S3000 is especially well suited for:
- Covered patios and outdoor kitchens
- Pool and courtyard connections
- Great rooms and entertainment spaces
- Custom homes with panoramic views
- Restaurants and hospitality environments
- Offices, conference rooms, and interior partitions
Glass Expanse lists S3000 door systems in widths from 5 to 40 feet and heights from 7 feet 2 inches to 10 feet. Because every system is project-specific, final dimensions and configurations should be reviewed during design. View the S3000 door system
S3000W Slide-and-Stack Window System
The S3000W brings the same slide-and-stack functionality to window-height openings. It is an excellent option for pass-through areas connecting kitchens, bars, patios, and outdoor entertaining spaces.
