# What opening options and locking mechanisms are available for the glass panels?

## This article explains how the glass panels can be opened and secured, including available handles, locks, and latch options.

The Glaxior retractable system offers several **opening and locking solutions**, depending on whether the installation is classified as low or high glazing.

Available opening options include:

- **Push‑button opening**, mainly used for low glazing installations.
- **Lock with key and handles on both sides**, typically used for high glazing applications.
- **Combination of push‑button and lock options**, depending on configuration.

Locking and securing mechanisms include:

- **Bottom latches**
- **Top latches**
- **Mortise (recessed) latches**
- Optional **boltless latch bodies**

Outward‑opening glazing is possible, but only when using a **push‑button handle**, and the system allows a maximum of **one fixed panel per opening** in such configurations.
