AfterVLX 100 Double Swing / French Door in Boynton Beach, FL | TruePane Windows & Doors
The VLX 100 Double Swing door is a paired aluminum French door system built for Florida living. It gives you two symmetrical door panels that open from the center, a flush threshold you can walk across without catching a toe, and multi-point locking hardware that secures the door at three points along the frame. Homeowners in Boynton Beach choose this door when they want a wide, clean opening to a patio, lanai, or pool deck without the visual bulk of a sliding glass wall. As an authorized ViewLux installation partner, TruePane Windows & Doors supplies and installs this exact system throughout Boynton Beach and Palm Beach County. Call (561) 708-6771 for a free on-site measurement.
Product Overview - VLX 100 Double Swing / French Door
The VLX 100 Double Swing is what we recommend when a homeowner wants the classic look of French doors but refuses to deal with wood rot, swelling, or repainting every few years. These are paired aluminum doors, engineered so the two panels meet in the middle with matching sightlines. The center stiles are identical in width to the outer frame, so the door reads as one balanced, symmetrical unit whether open or closed.
ViewLux designed this series around three things that matter in South Florida: corrosion resistance, thermal performance, and hardware that actually lasts. The aluminum is extruded with a 0.098-inch wall thickness, which gives the frame rigidity without excessive weight. The profile width measures 2.56 inches, slim enough to keep the glass area generous, but deep enough to accept a true thermal break. The flush threshold means the sill sits nearly level with the finished floor, which makes this door work well for aging-in-place remodels, homes with wheelchair access needs, and kitchens where wheeled carts roll out to the grill.
Buyers in Boynton Beach pick this series over standard builder-grade French doors for one reason: the hardware. The multi-point lock engages at the top, center, and bottom of the active panel with a single turn of the handle. That spreads the locking force across the full height of the door instead of relying on one deadbolt at waist level. It changes how the door feels when it closes, too. There’s no rattle, no flex, no give when you push against the locked panel.

Performance Features
Thermal Efficiency
The VLX 100 uses a polyamide thermal break that separates the interior and exterior aluminum profiles. This interrupts the heat path that makes unbroken aluminum frames sweat and radiate heat. The result is NFRC-rated thermal performance that keeps your Boynton Beach air conditioning inside where it belongs, even on August afternoons when the west-facing sun hits the door directly.
Acoustic Performance
Laminated glass paired with the door’s multi-chamber aluminum frame reduces outside noise meaningfully. If you live near I-95, Congress Avenue, or one of Boynton Beach’s busier canal routes, the difference between a single-pane French door and this system is immediate. Laminated glass uses a PVB interlayer that dampens vibration across a broader frequency range than tempered glass alone.
Airtightness & Weather Seal
The VLX 100 uses dual compression gaskets that run the full perimeter of both panels. When the door closes, the gaskets compress against the frame and against each other at the center meeting stile. That double seal is what stops conditioned air from leaking out and humid Boynton Beach air from creeping in along the door edges.
Waterproofing
This is the standard that matters most in South Florida. The frame is engineered with internal drainage channels that collect and release any water that gets past the outer gasket. That water exits through weep holes at the sill instead of pooling inside the track. It’s the same principle used in commercial storefront systems, applied to a residential double swing door.
Wind Resistance
The VLX 100 is wind-load rated for the local climate requirements in Palm Beach County. When ordered with impact-resistant laminated glass, the door meets the wind-borne debris protection requirements under the Florida Building Code. That’s the difference between a door that survives a storm and a door that becomes a liability during one. TruePane Windows & Doors installs this system to withstand the same wind forces the code anticipates for coastal Boynton Beach.
Security & Hardware
The multi-point lock isn’t a single bolt. It’s a system of locking rods that drive into reinforced strikes at three points along the frame, operated by one handle. This makes the door dramatically harder to kick in than a standard single-deadbolt French door. Combined with the aluminum frame’s inherent rigidity, it gives homeowners in Boynton Beach a door that closes tight and stays closed.
Color & Glass Options
The VLX 100 Double Swing comes in six finish options, each with a specific architectural fit. Premium Black is the choice for modern, high-contrast exteriors where the door frames the view like a picture frame. Pure White works well on coastal and transitional homes around Boynton’s older neighborhoods where the trim lines should disappear. Anodized Silver has a raw, industrial clarity that suits mid-century and contemporary designs. Bronze reads warmer and hides dust better on homes near busier roads. Champagne is the middle ground between silver and bronze, with a warmer metallic cast. Teak Wood mimics stained wood grain, which lets you keep the look of wood French doors without the maintenance.
On glass, the decision usually comes down to visibility and impact protection. Clear maximizes the view and natural light. Frosted and Obscure glass soften light and add privacy, useful for a door facing a neighbor or a street. Low-E coatings cut heat gain and UV fading inside the room. Tempered glass breaks into small, safe pieces, which code requires for doors. Laminated glass adds the impact resistance that protects your home during hurricane season and adds real acoustic benefit year-round.
Installation by TruePane Windows & Doors in Boynton Beach
How a door performs in the field comes down to installation, and that’s where most French door problems in Boynton Beach begin. A door set even slightly out of level will bind at the center. A frame that’s not plumb will throw the reveal lines off and put the multi-point lock strikes out of alignment. A sill that isn’t square will leak at the corners no matter how good the door itself is.
TruePane Windows & Doors installs the VLX 100 to AAMA 2400/2410 standards, the recognized benchmark for window and door installation in residential construction. We start with a pre-installation inspection of the rough opening, which tells us whether the masonry, stucco, or wood buck needs correction before the door goes in. In Boynton Beach, we regularly find rough openings that were framed for a stock-size door and need shaving, or sills with old caulk and screw holes from previous doors that need full removal before clean perimeter sealing.
The door is set level, plumb, and square, with shims placed behind each hinge and each lock strike point. We then seal the entire perimeter with AAMA 812 low-expansion foam sealant, which fills the rough opening gap without pushing the frame out of alignment. Flashing tape and sealant detail at the sill and head complete the dry-in. Once the door is hung and adjusted, we test the reveals, run the panels through a full open-close cycle, and verify the multi-point lock engages cleanly at all three points. We also run a water test at the sill before we call the job done.
Any authorized ViewLux warranty is conditional on proper installation. A DIY job or a low-bid crew that skips the perimeter foam and hangs the door off-level voids that protection. Our installation is warranty-safe because it follows the manufacturer’s installation requirements and the AAMA standards that govern them.
Frequently Asked Questions - VLX 100 Double Swing / French Door
Most VLX 100 orders in Boynton Beach take three to five weeks from the date the order is confirmed, depending on glass type and finish selection. Laminated impact glass and less common finishes like Teak Wood typically extend the lead time toward the longer end because they’re produced to order. Call (561) 708-6771 and we can confirm current production times for your exact configuration.
The VLX 100 can qualify for federal energy tax credits when ordered with Low-E glass that meets the current ENERGY STAR criteria for the South Florida climate zone. The door’s NFRC rating, which is specific to the glass package you choose, determines eligibility. We can walk you through which glass options meet the credit threshold for Boynton Beach installations.
ViewLux provides a manufacturer warranty on the aluminum frame, finish, and hardware, and TruePane Windows & Doors backs the installation with our own workmanship warranty. The exact coverage terms vary by finish and glass selection, so we’ll document your specific warranty at the time of your quote. Call (561) 708-6771 and we’ll go over exactly what’s covered before you sign anything.
Yes. The VLX 100 is fabricated to your specific rough opening dimensions up to a 96-inch wide span. That means we don’t force a stock size into your opening or pad the gap with trim. Your door is made for your Boynton Beach home’s exact measurements. Exact dimensions are confirmed during our free on-site measurement, not taken over the phone.
Wipe the frame and tracks with a damp cloth and a mild soap every few months to remove salt and grime. Keep the weep holes at the sill clear of debris so water can drain. Lubricate the multi-point lock mechanism and hinges with a light silicone spray once a year. Aluminum won’t rot, and the factory finish won’t need repainting, which is why this door is so well suited to the Boynton Beach climate.
