VLX 100 Swing / Entry Door in Woodland Hills, CA | Hale Windows Woodland Hills
The VLX 100 Swing / Entry Door is a modern aluminum single-entry door built around a slim 2.56-inch profile and a clean, minimalist frame. Homeowners in Woodland Hills choose it for contemporary and mid-century homes where sightlines matter and bulky door frames would feel wrong. Hale Windows Woodland Hills is an authorized ViewLux installation partner, which means we sell, measure, install, and warranty this door ourselves, no third-party subcontractors. If you’re researching the VLX 100 for a Woodland Hills entryway, call us at (831) 618-2053 for pricing, lead times, or a free on-site measurement.
Product Overview – VLX 100 Swing / Entry Door
The VLX 100 is a single-panel swing door engineered for homeowners who want an entry that feels architectural rather than decorative. The frame is extruded aluminum with a wall thickness of 0.098 inches, which gives the door real structural stiffness without the visual weight of steel or the maintenance problems of wood. The 2.56-inch profile width keeps the door face clean and lets more glass into the opening, which is one of the reasons this series reads so well on homes in neighborhoods like Walnut Acres, Vista de Oro, and College Acres.
The locking system is multi-point, meaning the door secures at the top, bottom, and latch side with a single turn of the handle. That’s a meaningful step up from a standard deadbolt-only entry. The minimalist frame is not just an aesthetic choice. Fewer exposed seams and a tighter extrusion design mean fewer places for air, water, and noise to get through, which matters during Woodland Hills summer heat and the Santa Ana wind season. Buyers typically compare this door to fiberglass and wood entry systems, and the deciding factor is usually the combination of clean lines, low maintenance, and the fact that aluminum will not warp, rot, or swell in Southern California’s dry heat cycles. Call (831) 618-2053 and we’ll walk you through whether the VLX 100 is the right fit for your opening.

This table covers the core numbers, but real-world performance depends on how the door is set. The maximum 48-inch span means the VLX 100 works as a true single entry, not a double-door replacement. The 0.098-inch wall thickness is heavier than many residential aluminum doors on the market, which is why this door feels solid when it closes, not tinny. Retractable screens are a popular add-on for Woodland Hills buyers who want cross-ventilation on cooler evenings without a permanent screen door covering the clean aluminum frame.
Performance Features
Thermal Efficiency
Aluminum conducts heat easily, which is why the VLX 100 uses a thermal break, a non-conductive barrier inside the frame extrusion that separates the interior and exterior metal faces. This stops the frame from transferring Woodland Hills summer heat into your entryway and keeps conditioned air inside. The door is NFRC-rated, so you can compare its U-factor and solar heat gain numbers against any other door on an apples-to-apples basis.
Acoustic Performance
The VLX 100’s tight extrusion tolerances and multi-point compression seal reduce the gaps that let street noise through. Laminated glass is the best acoustic upgrade if your Woodland Hills entry faces Ventura Boulevard, Topanga Canyon Boulevard, or any busy feeder street. Laminated glass uses an interlayer that damps vibration, cutting mid and high-frequency noise more effectively than tempered glass alone.
Airtightness & Weather Seal
The multi-point lock does more than secure the door. It pulls the panel tight against the weatherstripping at three points around the perimeter, creating consistent compression pressure. That means fewer drafts, less dust intrusion, and a door that does not rattle when a gust hits. In Woodland Hills, where Santa Ana winds can push 40 to 50 mph through canyon corridors, that seal matters.
Waterproofing
Every VLX 100 we install at Hale Windows Woodland Hills gets AAMA 812 low-expansion foam on the full perimeter joint between the door frame and the rough opening. That foam expands to fill voids, then seals them against water and vapor. The frame also includes integrated drainage channels so any moisture that does find its way in is routed down and out, not trapped against the sill. Water ingress during winter rain is one of the top causes of entry-door failure in Woodland Hills, and this door is built to manage it.
Wind Resistance
The VLX 100 is wind-load rated for the conditions Woodland Hills actually sees. Aluminum is inherently stiff. Combined with the 0.098-inch wall thickness and the hardware’s structural anchoring points, the door stays square under sustained wind pressure. For homes in the hillier sections of Woodland Hills, around Calabasas Peak or the ridges above Topanga, the laminated glass option adds another layer of impact resistance.
Security & Hardware
The multi-point locking system engages three separate locking points when you lift the handle. That spreads forced-entry resistance across the full height of the panel instead of concentrating it at one deadbolt. The aluminum frame will not split like wood under prying force. If security is a priority, pair the VLX 100 with laminated glass, which holds together under repeated impacts instead of shattering.
Color & Glass Options
The VLX 100 comes in six finishes. Premium Black and Pure White are the two most specified in Woodland Hills right now, and they serve very different looks. Black gives a crisp, high-contrast frame that defines the entry on lighter stucco exteriors. White blends into traditional and Spanish-revival homes around Vista de Oro and the neighborhoods south of Ventura Boulevard. Anodized Silver is raw, industrial, and works well on mid-century exteriors with aluminum window trim. Bronze and Champagne split the difference, warm without feeling rustic. Teak Wood is a wood-grain film over aluminum, intended for anyone who wants the warmth of stained wood without ongoing sealing and refinishing.
On the glass side, clear tempered is the standard. Low-E is the upgrade we recommend for any Woodland Hills entry that gets direct western or southern sun, because it cuts solar heat without visibly changing the door’s appearance. Frosted and obscure glass provide privacy for entries that face a street, sidewalk, or neighbor’s window while still passing daylight. Laminated glass is the choice for noise reduction, security, and impact resistance. All glass options are available tempered for safety code compliance. Call (831) 618-2053 and we’ll bring physical finish and glass samples to your Woodland Hills home.
Installation by Hale Windows Woodland Hills in Woodland Hills
A door is only as good as its installation. We see it constantly in Woodland Hills: expensive entry doors installed by general labor with no flashing, no perimeter seal, and no attention to level, and within two years the door binds, leaks, or the finish fails. Improper installation also voids the manufacturer warranty on the VLX 100. That is the single most important reason to have your door installed by an authorized ViewLux partner like Hale Windows Woodland Hills rather than a handyman or a general contractor who does not specialize in door systems.
Our process is consistent on every install. We start with a pre-install inspection of the opening, including checking the rough opening dimensions, the condition of the sub-sill, and whether the existing flashing needs repair. We set the frame level, plumb, and square, and we shim and anchor it so the panel reveals stay even and the door swings true. Then we apply AAMA 812 low-expansion foam to the full perimeter joint, which is the standard Wall and ViewLux specify for waterproofing and air sealing. The entire installation follows AAMA 2400/2410 installation standards, which cover proper anchoring, flashing, and sealing for window and door systems.
We finish with a water test on the sill and lower corners, adjust the multi-point lock so it engages without resistance, and clean the glass and frame before we leave. In Woodland Hills specifically, we also check drainage paths on sloped entries and verify the threshold is rated for the exposure your entry gets, because a south-facing entry off a flat pad behaves differently from a north-facing entry with a covered porch. This is the difference between a door that lasts 20 years and one that fails in five. To schedule a measurement and site inspection, call (831) 618-2053.
Frequently Asked Questions – VLX 100 Swing / Entry Door
Most VLX 100 doors in standard finishes and glass configurations ship to our Woodland Hills shop in 3 to 6 weeks from order confirmation. Custom finishes, laminated glass, or retractable screens can push lead time to 6 to 10 weeks. We give you a written delivery window at the time of your quote. Call (831) 618-2053 and we’ll check current factory availability for your specific configuration.
The VLX 100 with Low-E glass typically meets the thermal performance thresholds for federal energy efficiency incentives, but qualification depends on the specific glass package and your filing year. We recommend asking your tax professional and we’ll provide the NFRC performance documentation for your door. Call (831) 618-2053 for help pulling the right ratings sheet.
The VLX 100 carries a manufacturer warranty from ViewLux on the frame, finish, and hardware, and Hale Windows Woodland Hills provides a workmanship warranty on the installation. The manufacturer warranty is conditional on installation by an authorized partner, which is another reason to avoid unqualified installers. We’ll give you the full warranty terms in writing with your quote.
Yes. The VLX 100 is fabricated to your rough opening dimensions up to a 48-inch single panel span. That means we can accommodate most standard 36-inch and 42-inch entry openings, plus wider custom widths up to the product’s maximum. We measure the actual opening on site, so the door is built for your home, not ordered from a stock list. Call (831) 618-2053 to schedule a free measurement.
Aluminum frames need far less maintenance than wood, but they are not zero-maintenance. Wash the frame and glass with mild soap and water two or three times a year, and in Woodland Hills pay special attention after Santa Ana wind events, when fine dust and grit settle into the tracks and hinge areas. Check the weatherstripping once a year and keep the drainage channels clear. We include a maintenance walk-through after every install.
