Product Overview - VLX 100 Swing / Entry Door

ViewLux built the VLX 100 around a simple idea: an entry door should disappear into the architecture. The frame profile measures just 2.56 inches wide, which is notably slimmer than most competing aluminum systems. That narrow profile means more glass and less metal, which is what most Riviera Beach homeowners want when they’re replacing an old wood or steel door that blocks natural light from the entry.

This is a single swing door, hinged or pivoted depending on your rough opening, and it uses a multi-point locking mechanism that engages at the top, bottom, and center of the door slab when you lock it. That’s a meaningful security upgrade over a standard deadbolt-only setup, and it’s one of the reasons we recommend this series for customers in Riviera Beach who want a modern front entry without compromising on peace of mind.

The wall thickness on the aluminum extrusions is 0.098 inches. To put that in perspective, many aluminum doors in this price category use thinner walls, and the extra gauge shows up in how the door feels when it closes and how it holds its alignment over years of daily use. The maximum panel span is 48 inches wide, which covers almost any standard single entry opening in Riviera Beach homes, from 1960s ranch layouts to newer two-story builds.

What buyers keep telling us after installation: the door feels solid in the hand, the locking action is smooth, and the clean lines changed the whole look of their entry. That’s the VLX 100 doing exactly what it was designed to do.

Technical Specifications

Performance Features

Thermal Efficiency - The VLX 100 uses a thermal break built into the aluminum extrusion, which separates the interior and exterior metal faces so heat doesn’t transfer directly through the frame. In Riviera Beach’s summer humidity, that thermal break is what keeps your entryway from radiating heat into the house. The door carries NFRC energy performance ratings, so you can compare its actual numbers against other products instead of trusting marketing language.

Acoustic Performance - If you live near Blue Heron Boulevard, US-1, or any of the busier corridors in Riviera Beach, you know sound carries. The VLX 100’s heavy-gauge aluminum frame and laminated glass option reduce transmitted noise noticeably. Laminated glass in particular damps mid-range frequencies like traffic and voices better than standard annealed glass.

Airtightness & Weather Seal - The door uses a continuous compression gasket system around the perimeter. When the panel closes, the gaskets compress against the frame and create a seal that keeps conditioned air inside and humid air outside. During Riviera Beach afternoons when the humidity sits above 70 percent, that seal is doing real work.

Waterproofing - AAMA 812 low-expansion foam sealant is applied on every perimeter joint during installation. That’s not optional; it’s part of the AAMA 2400/2410 installation standard we follow on every job. The sill design directs water away from the interior, and we test with water after install to confirm no leaks before we call the job done. Riviera Beach gets roughly 60 inches of rain a year, so water management on an entry door isn’t a nice-to-have.

Wind Resistance - The VLX 100 is wind-load rated for coastal climate requirements. When you pair the aluminum frame with laminated impact glass, the door is built to handle the wind events Riviera Beach faces during hurricane season. We’ll confirm the specific ratings for your opening size during the quote process.

Security & Hardware - The multi-point locking system engages three separate points along the door edge when you turn the key or lever. Each point locks independently, so a forced entry attempt has to defeat three anchors instead of one. That’s a significant step up from a standard single deadbolt, and it’s built into the VLX 100 as standard equipment.

Color & Glass Options

The VLX 100 comes in six finishes: Premium Black, Pure White, Anodized Silver, Bronze, Champagne, and Teak Wood. Premium Black is far and away our most requested finish for modern and contemporary homes in Riviera Beach, especially on white or light-colored exteriors where the contrast gives the entry strong curb appeal. Pure White suits traditional Florida homes and pairs well with coastal color palettes. Anodized Silver and Bronze work nicely on mid-century styles and commercial-leaning residential projects. Champagne has a warm, subtle metallic tone that complements beige and cream exteriors. Teak Wood gives you the warmth of wood grain without the maintenance of a wooden door, which matters in Riviera Beach where salt air and humidity eat real wood over time.

On the glass side, Clear maximizes daylight and visibility. Frosted and Obscure glass are popular for entries where you want privacy while keeping light flowing through, like doors that face a street or a neighbor’s window. Low-E glass cuts solar heat gain and helps your cooling bills during Riviera Beach summers. Tempered glass adds break safety. Laminated glass is the impact-rated option, and we strongly recommend it for any opening in a wind-borne debris zone, which covers much of coastal Palm Beach County.

You can also spec a retractable screen built into the frame. It hides away when the door is closed and pulls across when you want cross-ventilation without bugs. Given the mosquito pressure in Riviera Beach, plenty of our customers add it.

Installation by TruePane Windows & Doors in Riviera Beach

A door is only as good as its installation. We’ve taken over jobs in Riviera Beach where a previous contractor set a door out of plumb and the owner spent months dealing with a panel that scraped the frame and a lock that never engaged smoothly. Aluminum doors especially punish sloppy installation because the tolerances are tight. That’s why TruePane Windows & Doors handles every VLX 100 install with the same process, start to finish.

We begin with a pre-install inspection: rough opening dimensions, existing framing condition, subfloor level, and water intrusion history. Riviera Beach homes near the Intracoastal sometimes have settled slabs or older framing that needs correction before a new door goes in. We check all of that before the door arrives.

On install day, we set the frame level, plumb, and square using shims and laser levels. We don’t eyeball it and we don’t rush it. The perimeter is sealed with AAMA 812 low-expansion foam on every joint. The exterior gets flashed and sealed per AAMA 2400/2410 installation standards, which is the governing standard for window and door installation in coastal climates like ours.

After the door hangs and the hardware is adjusted, we run a water test on the exterior and a visual check on the interior. Then we walk you through the operation of the multi-point lock, the screen if you ordered one, and the care recommendations. The site is left clean.

One thing we tell every customer in Riviera Beach: a manufacturer warranty only covers defects in the product. If the installation is wrong, the warranty won’t help you. Using an authorized ViewLux partner like TruePane Windows & Doors means the install is done to the standard ViewLux expects, and the warranty stays intact.

Frequently Asked Questions - VLX 100 Swing / Entry Door

What is the lead time for the VLX 100 Swing / Entry Door in Riviera Beach? The VLX 100 is a made-to-order product, and typical lead times run 4 to 6 weeks from order confirmation to delivery at our Riviera Beach shop, depending on the finish and glass selection at the time of order. Custom sizes and laminated glass can add time. We’ll give you a firm lead-time window when we quote the project. Call (786) 829-6722 to start the process early if you’re working toward a move-in or renovation deadline.

Does the VLX 100 qualify for energy tax credits? Entry doors qualify for the federal energy tax credit only if they meet specific NFRC-rated criteria, and eligibility depends on the glass package you choose on the VLX 100. Low-E glass is the right starting point for thermal performance. We’ll confirm the current credit requirements for your configuration when you’re deciding on options. Call (786) 829-6722 and we’ll walk you through what qualifies and what doesn’t.

What warranty comes with the VLX 100 Swing / Entry Door? The VLX 100 carries ViewLux’s manufacturer warranty on the door panel, frame, and finish, and the specific coverage terms depend on the product series and finish you select. Installation work by TruePane Windows & Doors is warranted separately. We review both warranty documents with you at contract signing so you know exactly what’s covered. Call (786) 829-6722 for details on your specific configuration.

Can I customize the size of the VLX 100? Yes, the VLX 100 is built to your rough opening dimensions, up to a maximum panel width of 48 inches. That covers nearly every standard single entry in Riviera Beach, and we can also accommodate non-standard heights. We measure everything on site during the free consultation so the door is fabricated to fit your actual opening, not an assumed one. Call (786) 829-6722 to book a measurement visit.

How do I maintain an aluminum frame door in Riviera Beach’s salt air? Aluminum doors require far less maintenance than wood, but salt air in Riviera Beach does demand routine care. Wipe the frame and glass with a mild soap solution every few months, rinse thoroughly, and keep the track and hinge areas clear of sand and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners and pressure washers on the finish. The powder-coated finishes on the VLX 100 are designed for coastal exposure, and this simple routine keeps them looking new for years. Call (786) 829-6722 if you’d like the full care guide included with our installs.
