VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door in San Antonio, TX | Juniper Windows San Antonio
An arched entry door changes how a home feels from the street. The VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door is a CNC-bent aluminum entryway built to a radius you specify, not a radius a factory picked for you. Juniper Windows San Antonio is an authorized ViewLux installation partner serving San Antonio, TX and surrounding neighborhoods like Alamo Heights, Stone Oak, Terrell Hills, and King William. We measure, order, and install these doors so the curve lands exactly where your architect or designer intended. Call (903) 488-7019 to talk through your project and get a written quote.
Product Overview – VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door
The VLX 100 exists because round-top openings are hard to do well. Most arched doors are bent with generic tooling that leaves ripples or stress marks in the aluminum. The VLX 100 uses CNC bending equipment that forms each radius from a single extrusion, so the curve is clean and continuous. The result is a curved architectural statement with structural precision, not a door that looks good from twenty feet and wobbly up close.
This series fits where standard doors don’t. Think Mediterranean and Spanish Revival homes in Monte Vista, modern ranch remodels in Castle Hills, and custom builds in Boerne and Fair Oaks Ranch where arched entries are part of the original architectural language. Buyers choose the VLX 100 when they want the thermal performance and low maintenance of aluminum without sacrificing the warmth of a traditional arched opening.
The aluminum is commercial-grade with a 0.098-inch wall thickness. That’s thicker than most residential door extrusions, which means the frame resists racking, keeps its shape through San Antonio’s summer heat, and holds a true radius year after year. Juniper Windows San Antonio orders every VLX 100 to the exact opening dimensions we measure on site, so there’s no field-cutting and no compromise on the arc.
Technical Specifications
Here’s what the VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door brings to a San Antonio home, in plain numbers:
- Frame wall thickness: 0.098″ aluminum extrusion, heavier than typical residential profiles
- Profile width: 2.56″ visible frame face, slim enough for modern sightlines, strong enough for a true structural arch
- Maximum span: Custom fabricated to order. There’s no stock size. If your opening is 8 feet wide or 12 feet wide, the door is built to that number
- Glass options: Clear, Frosted, Obscure, Low-E, Tempered, Laminated
- Finishes: Premium Black, Pure White, Anodized Silver, Bronze, Champagne, Teak Wood
- Installation standard: AAMA 2400/2410 compliant, AAMA 812 sealant on all perimeter joints
Because each door is fabricated to order, lead times run longer than a stock door. We’ll give you a firm delivery window when you place the order.
Performance Features
Thermal Efficiency – The VLX 100 frame carries a thermal break: a non-conductive barrier between the interior and exterior aluminum. That break is what lets this door hold a comfortable indoor temperature when a San Antonio August pushes 100 degrees outside. NFRC-rated performance data is available for the glazing packages we offer.
Acoustic Performance – A solid aluminum frame with laminated glass does real work cutting down street noise. If you live near Loop 410, I-10, or a busy corridor in Southtown, the laminated glass option meaningfully reduces traffic sound compared to standard monolithic glass.
Airtightness & Weather Seal – Every VLX 100 we install in San Antonio gets a continuous perimeter seal with AAMA 812 low-expansion foam. That’s not a caulk bead; it’s a full-depth air seal that stops drafts, dust, and the fine cedar pollen that blankets the Hill Country every winter.
Waterproofing – Arched doors fail at the spring line if the flashing isn’t right. We set every VLX 100 with a sill pan, back-dam, and sealed jamb flanges so water drains out instead of in. The door is designed to shed water at the threshold, not trap it.
Wind Resistance – San Antonio sits in a design wind zone that requires doors to resist real uplift and racking pressure, especially during spring storm season. The VLX 100 is wind-load rated for our local climate requirements, and the 0.098″ wall extrusion gives the frame stiffness that thinner profiles can’t match.
Security & Hardware – The frame carries a multi-point locking system and the option of impact-resistant laminated glass. That combination makes the door more resistant to forced entry and flying debris. Laminated glass holds together if it breaks, which matters in hail country.

Color & Glass Options
An arched door is a focal point. The finish you choose sets the tone for the entire entry.
Premium Black is our most-requested finish for modern and transitional homes in San Antonio, especially in new construction north of 1604. It reads sharp against limestone and white stucco. Pure White suits traditional and farmhouse-style homes, blending with existing white trim so the arch itself becomes the statement. Anodized Silver gives an industrial, almost commercial look that works on contemporary designs. Bronze is the classic choice for Spanish Revival and Mediterranean homes in Alamo Heights and Olmos Park – it ages gracefully and hides dust. Champagne has a warm, muted tone that sits between silver and gold; it’s a favorite on custom builds in the Dominion. Teak Wood is a wood-grain finish that gives the warmth of timber without the maintenance. It reads well on Hill Country modern homes that mix stone and steel.
On glass: Clear maximizes light into the entry. Low-E adds a coating that reflects heat while keeping the view. Frosted and Obscure give privacy for doors that face the street or a close neighbor. Tempered is safety glass, required on most door applications by code. Laminated adds impact resistance and sound damping – worth considering if you’re near a busy road in San Antonio or want storm protection.
Installation by Juniper Windows San Antonio in San Antonio
An arched door is only as good as its installation. We’ve seen factory-perfect doors fail in San Antonio because the installer didn’t set the frame plumb or skipped a flashing detail. That’s why Juniper Windows San Antonio follows the same process on every VLX 100 we put in.
Before install, we inspect the rough opening and the existing threshold. Arched openings are rarely perfectly square, so we measure the radius at multiple points and shim the frame to a true arc before fastening anything. The door gets set level, plumb, and square – not close, but dead on. If the frame is racked even a quarter inch, the door will bind, the sweep will drag, and the locks won’t align.
We seal the full perimeter with AAMA 812 low-expansion foam, not fiberglass or spray foam from a can. AAMA 812 foam is formulated for door and window installation – it fills gaps without bowing the frame. Then we flash the sill and jamb flanges so water drains down and out. Every install follows AAMA 2400/2410 standards, which is the industry benchmark for fenestration installation.
After the door is set, we run a water test on the threshold and side jambs, check the reveal around the panel, and clean up the site. Why does this matter? A manufacturer’s warranty on an arched door is void if the installation wasn’t done to spec. With Juniper Windows San Antonio, the install is done by people who install these doors in San Antonio every month, not a crew guessing on your entryway.
Frequently Asked Questions – VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door
What is the lead time for the VLX 100 Arched / Custom Door?
Lead time typically runs 6 to 10 weeks from order to delivery at our San Antonio warehouse, because every door is fabricated to the exact radius and size of your opening. Regular rectangular doors ship in 3 to 5 weeks; the custom bend and fabrication add time. Call (903) 488-7019 and we’ll confirm current lead times before you commit.
Does the VLX 100 qualify for energy tax credits?
It can, depending on the glass package. Doors that meet ENERGY STAR criteria for the South-Central climate zone may qualify for a federal tax credit on the product cost, not installation. We’ll tell you at quoting time whether the glass you choose is eligible for San Antonio homes.
What warranty comes with the Arched / Custom Door?
ViewLux provides a manufacturer warranty on the frame and glass, and Juniper Windows San Antonio stands behind our installation work separately. The manufacturer warranty is only valid if the installation was performed by an authorized partner using AAMA 2400/2410 methods, which is exactly how we install in San Antonio.
Can I customize the size of the VLX 100?
Yes. There is no stock size for this door. Tell us the width, height, and radius of your opening, and the door is fabricated to those exact numbers. We measure on site in San Antonio to confirm the arc and dimensions before the order goes to production.
How do I maintain the aluminum frame?
Wash the frame with mild soap and water twice a year, and wipe the weatherstripping clean so it keeps its seal. In San Antonio, hard water spots from sprinklers are the main thing to watch; a quick rinse keeps the finish looking new. No painting, no sealing, no rust treatment needed – it’s aluminum.
