What Is SlideClear?
SlideClear is a manufacturer of innovative glass operable wall systems built for both residential and commercial outdoor spaces. Based in Austin, Texas, they design and produce frameless glass panel systems, folding glass walls, vertically operable glass windows, and sliding glass enclosures that transform open-air areas into year-round living spaces. With over 30 years of experience in outdoor enclosure design, SlideClear partners with authorized dealers like Alta Outdoor Living to deliver custom-engineered solutions tailored to each project.
What sets SlideClear apart is their focus on early-stage design collaboration. Rather than showing up at the end of a project with a product that has to be forced to fit, SlideClear integrates glass engineering, pergola compatibility, and local code compliance from the very beginning. This approach prevents costly rework and delivers a finished product that looks and functions the way it should from day one.
SlideClear Products We Install
At Alta Outdoor Living, we install the full lineup of SlideClear products, and we’ll help you choose the right system for your space, your structure, and how you want to use it.
Glide – Frameless Multi-Slide Glass Walls
The Glide system features frameless sliding glass panels that move effortlessly on a track, stacking fully open when you want fresh air and closing completely when you need protection. Panels are available in 10mm or 12mm glass with aluminum frames, and can reach up to 4 feet wide and 10 feet tall. The recessed sill is ADA-compliant, and integrated handles and locking options keep things clean and secure. This is one of our most requested systems for homeowners who want flexibility without sacrificing the view.
ClearFOLD – Frameless Folding Operable Walls
ClearFOLD panels fold and stack to one side, creating a wide-open space when fully opened and a weathertight enclosure when closed. These systems use 10mm single-pane glass with aluminum frames and stainless steel hardware, and they're available in 2 to 7 panel configurations. The patented bottom-rolling system with a quick-locking floor channel makes installation faster and operation smoother. A built-in drainage module handles water management for exterior applications, and the system accommodates up to 20mm of deflection in the top beam without affecting performance.
Vertaslide – Vertically Operable Glass Walls
The Vertaslide system operates vertically rather than horizontally, giving you full control over airflow and ventilation at the touch of a button. These motorized panels can move upward to create a doorway or downward to form a guardrail, and they're available in both single and double-pane glass. Panels can reach up to 13 feet wide and 16 feet tall, and the Somfy wireless controls let you operate them by remote, app, wall switch, or central control integration. This system works well for larger openings where sliding or folding panels aren't practical.
Integration with Your Home & Outdoor Spaces
We design your conservatory to connect seamlessly with your home’s existing architecture and with adjacent outdoor features — decks, patios, garden areas, and pergolas — so the addition feels like it was always part of the plan.
SlideClear Features That Make a Difference
Aluminum Frame Systems
All SlideClear systems use aluminum framing that's lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and dimensionally stable across wide temperature swings. That matters in Colorado, where freeze-thaw cycles put constant stress on outdoor structures. We install these systems in a range of powder-coat colors to match your home.
Weathertight Performance
SlideClear systems are designed to block wind, rain, and cold while still delivering unobstructed views. Integrated drainage modules on folding systems and precision-engineered seals on sliding systems keep the elements out so you can stay comfortable year-round.
Smart Controls and Motorization
The Vertaslide system offers full motorized operation through Somfy wireless controls. You can operate your glass wall by remote control, smartphone app, wall switch, or central home automation integration. For the Glide and ClearFOLD systems, smooth manual operation is standard, with panels that move effortlessly on precision-engineered tracks.
Privacy and Lighting Options
SlideClear panels don't have to be fully transparent. We can integrate frosted panels, tinted glass, or privacy screen sections for areas where you want light without full visibility from neighbors. We can also wire your enclosed space for overhead lighting, accent lighting, ceiling fans, and electrical outlets so it's just as functional after dark.
SlideClear Projects We Build
SlideClear systems work beautifully across a wide range of outdoor spaces. We commonly install them for pergola enclosures that turn an open pergola into a protected outdoor room you can use in any weather, covered porch enclosures that add glass walls to an existing covered porch to create a true three- or four-season room, patio enclosures that transform an open patio without losing the views or natural light, deck enclosures that combine glass walls with an existing deck structure, and custom outdoor rooms built from the ground up as a standalone addition to your home.

What Our Customers Say About Us
EXCELLENT Based on 38 reviews Posted on Google Miles HendersonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were surprised at how easy Jon Potter made getting our deck approved and built. He handled all the paperwork and even accompanied us to the HOA review meeting, which really made a difference. The deck builder and privacy screens his team designed got approved on the first try, something that rarely happens in our neighborhood. The crew was respectful and quiet while working, which we appreciated since most of us work from home. Eight months later, the deck still looks fantastic and hasn’t required any maintenance.Posted on Google Kate RileyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. What a difference the new privacy screens made along the edge of our deck. We finally have privacy from the neighbors while still enjoying a clear view of the trees. The team at Alta Outdoor Living handled the entire project smoothly from start to finish. Jeff Potter came out to our home in Parker with samples and never pushed us toward the more expensive options. The composite decking matches our trim perfectly, and the whole project wrapped up in about two weeks. No complaints at all.Posted on Google Jared WatsonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were initially told by several deck builders that the cost to engineer a deck would be very high. Jeff Potter saw it differently and proposed a much simpler solution that fit the terrain perfectly without overcomplicating the design. The end result was a multi-level composite deck that feels natural and thoughtfully planned, not forced in any way. We later added an Azenco roof, and it blended seamlessly with the original deck layout. The pricing was fair, the project stayed on schedule, and the crew always made sure the site was cleaned up at the end of each day.Posted on Google Penelope CastilloTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We wanted to upgrade our deck in Monument without starting completely from scratch, and this team delivered exactly that. They reused the existing posts, which saved us a lot of money, and only replaced what truly needed work. Dave Little’s crew was efficient and thoughtful throughout the process. Jon even caught and fixed a drainage issue that no one else had brought up. The new Azenco louvered roof is perfect for adjusting shade, and since the project was finished in May, we’ve been using the deck almost every day.Posted on Google Jamar McknightTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We explored a few contractors for our Cherry Creek deck, and most suggested doing a complete tear-down. Jon Potter, however, offered a much smarter approach, he kept the existing foundation and built on it, which not only made more sense but also saved us money. The Azenco roof they installed has been solid, no leaks and completely quiet when it operates. In the end, it turned out exactly as we hoped.Posted on Google Ross BradfordTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got sideswiped while riding in a Lyft and had no idea how the insurance side of things worked. The team explained who’s responsible in a rideshare accident, what evidence actually mattered, and what to expect along the way. They were easy to reach, always calling back the same day, and never made me feel rushed. I ended up with a fair settlement and didn’t have to guess what was going on.Posted on Google Natalie RogersTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Wasn’t enjoying how exposed our backyard felt, neighbors could see everything, so having Alta Outdoor Living install privacy screens really changed things. Light still comes through, but now we can actually relax without feeling watched. They even added a composite deck, which turned out great. Jon Potter answered all our questions without rushing us, and the whole project finished faster than quoted here in Larkspur.Posted on Google Estrella DejesusTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jon Potter came up with a smart solution for our sloped property in Black Forest that didn’t need heavy excavation or complicated engineering. The multi-level design ended up looking even better than what we first had in mind. It’s been three months now, and everything is still solid as a rock—even after all the challenges of building on that slope.Posted on Google Sebastian BurtonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Jeff Potter walked us through different material options without ever pushing the pricey choices. The composite boards they recommended ended up matching our house trim perfectly. They built a deck extension that blends seamlessly with our existing layout—it doesn’t even look like an addition. The whole project was wrapped up in just two weeks, and it gave us exactly what we needed: something functional but low-key.
FAQs
What is a SlideClear system?
A SlideClear system is a glass operable wall designed to enclose outdoor spaces while preserving open sightlines and natural airflow. These systems use frameless or aluminum-framed glass panels that slide, fold, or move vertically to give you full control over your environment. They’re engineered for year-round use and built to handle the demands of Colorado’s climate.
Can SlideClear systems be customized for my space?
Absolutely. Every SlideClear installation we do is custom-fit to your specific structure and layout. Whether you need a sliding, folding, or vertically operable system, panels are sized, configured, and finished to match your space. We also offer tinted glass, frosted panels, and privacy screen options to fit your preferences.
Are SlideClear systems suitable for both residential and commercial use?
Yes. SlideClear designs their systems for residential homes, restaurants, hospitality venues, and commercial properties alike. The same precision engineering and durable materials apply across all applications. At Alta Outdoor Living, we primarily serve homeowners across the Front Range, but the products themselves are built for any setting.
Do SlideClear systems require special maintenance?
SlideClear systems are built for low maintenance. The aluminum frames resist corrosion, and the glass panels clean easily with standard glass cleaner. Keeping the tracks clear of debris and giving them an occasional wipe-down is typically all it takes to keep everything operating smoothly for years.
