Avante® Sleek

5.0 | 1 Reviews

If you want a garage door that’s all about uninterrupted views and modern style, the Avante® Sleek is in a class of its own. The design puts wide, horizontal glass panels front and center, with barely-there vertical supports that maximize your sightlines and flood your garage with natural light. No chunky frames, no distractions—just a sleek, open feel that instantly upgrades your home’s curb appeal.

What really sets the Avante® Sleek apart is how much you can make it your own. Choose from clear, tinted, mirrored, or obscure glass to control the amount of light and privacy you want. You can even add solid aluminum panels in the same color as the frame for a totally custom look. And with a range of finishes and hardware, it’s easy to find a combination that fits your style. If you’re ready for a garage door that’s as striking as it is practical, the Avante® Sleek is tough to beat.

Next-Level Garage Door Design

Premium Aluminum Frame

The Avante® Sleek is crafted from tough, 2-1/8" commercial-grade aluminum that won’t rust or warp, so you get lasting strength with a refined look.

Light-Filled Options

Choose from clear, frosted, tinted, or obscure tempered glass—or even acrylic panels—to let in as much light (and privacy) as you want.

Custom Finishes

Pick from classic anodized or painted finishes, go bold with powder-coat colors, or match your home perfectly with over 1,500 Color Blast® options.

Insulated for Comfort

Select models include Intellicore® polyurethane insulation and insulated glass to help keep your garage more comfortable, year-round.

Wind-Ready Protection

Ask about our WindCode® reinforcement to meet code in high-wind areas.

Environmental Assurance

Clopay doors are compliant with environmental laws and regulations. Clopay doors do not contain HFCs. All Clopay doors are compliant with:

  • California SB 1013
  • Washington HB 1112 – Hydrofluorocarbon Greenhouse Gas Emissions
  • Canadian regulations amending the ozone-depleting substances and halocarbon alternatives regulations

  • Meets ASHRAE® 90.1 Title 24 and IECC® (International Energy Conservation Code) 2021 Section C406.9 Air Infiltration requirements.

Solid Construction for Everyday Confidence

The Avante® Sleek garage door is built to look great and stand the test of time. Its frame is made from commercial-grade aluminum, so it’s naturally rust-resistant and practically maintenance-free—just an occasional rinse keeps it looking fresh.

For added comfort, select models feature Intellicore® polyurethane insulation in the rails and stiles, helping keep your garage quieter and more comfortable. Every panel is joined with a weather-sealing section joint, so rain and wind stay outside where they belong. Also, an integral reinforcing fin adds extra strength and stability on wider doors.

You can choose from a wide variety of glass or acrylic panel options to get the perfect combination of light, privacy, and style for your home.

  • All Intellicore® insulated doors come standard with 10-ball nylon rollers and heavy-duty 14-gauge steel hinges.

With the Avante® Sleek, you can really make your garage door your own. Pick from a wide range of glass and acrylic options—everything from crystal-clear panels for maximum daylight, to tinted, frosted, mirrored, or bold black finishes for added privacy and curb appeal. Prefer a softer glow or extra privacy? Laminate panels in gray, bronze, black, or white filter the light beautifully.

Most glass selections are available in your choice of single pane or insulated construction for better energy efficiency. (Note: laminated and mirrored glass options are only available as single pane.) Want something totally unique? Custom glass and color options are also available.

Depending on the door model and height, single car doors up to 10’2” wide have no center stile; double doors have one center stile; and doors up to 22’2” wide have two equally spaced vertical stiles.

A departure from the grid-like pattern of standard aluminum and glass garage doors, the new Avante Sleek model features slim horizontal glass windows and minimal vertical stiles for broad unobstructed views. If you’re in search of a garage door with a minimalist frame design that gives off “panoramic vibes” and lets in plenty of daylight, this is it.

What is the difference between Avante and Avante Sleek?

Both the Avante and Avante Sleek are modern glass garage doors with aluminum frames. The Avante frame has a grid pattern formed by stiles and rails with rectangular windows. The Sleek model has minimal to no center stiles and the windows are narrow horizontal rectangles that give “panoramic vibes."

How do I know if my Avante Sleek door will have a center stile or not?

Single car doors up to 10’2” wide have no center stile; double doors have one center stile; and doors up to 22’2” wide have two equally spaced vertical stiles.

Which architectural styles best complement the Avante Sleek?

The Avante® Sleek is the star of the show when it comes to contemporary, mid-century modern, and industrial-style homes, thanks to its clean lines and minimalist frame. It pairs beautifully with modern architecture, adding a glass-forward look that plays well with large windows and open spaces. You’ll also find it’s a great fit for urban lofts, townhomes, and even updated ranches or split-levels—anywhere you want to boost curb appeal with a touch of sophistication. Its customizable finishes and glass options help it blend seamlessly with bold exteriors or subtle, neutral palettes. If your home features geometric shapes, mixed materials, or a streamlined facade, the Avante® Sleek will elevate your entry and tie the whole look together.

"Perfect Modern Touch"

I added two of these doors to my barn and could not be happier with how this project turned out. I utilized the clear glass option given the privacy I have on my property and love the warm glow of the garage lights as I come around the driveway in the evenings. The powder coated hardware is an awesome touch, as it does not detract from the overall look of the doors when in the garage. Could not be happier.
