Clopay Avante: AX/AXU documents and glazing choices

Match the model before choosing a document

Identifier: Avante. This guide compares a family or related models. Use the exact configuration on your label.

Models covered: AX, AXU. They are separate configurations; compare the applicable facts and documents below.

Check whether the model is AX or AXU before selecting documents; Clopay links an installation guide specifically labelled AX/AXU.

AXU adds polyurethane insulation in the aluminum rails and stiles. Its published R-3.8 figure is tied to clear insulated glass; it should not be applied to every Avante infill.

Record frame model and exact glass selection together. Privacy appearance, pane construction and frame insulation are separate choices.

Before applying these details

• Avante is a family, not a single glazing specification.
• AX and AXU are configuration identifiers, not proof of compatibility with another Avante collection.
• The presence of optional reinforcement or glass choices does not certify an individual door for a site.
• Manual revision/date applicability has not been inspected.
• Exact dimensions, current availability, warranty entitlement and parts compatibility remain unverified.
