Why Choose Statue Optima 08?
Branded Glass Balcony
Statü Optima 08 is part of the Statü series, Albert Genau’s line of affordable glass balconies.
By combining the advantage of an affordable price with Albert Genau’s products, manufacturing, and dealer network, it offers a solution focused on value for money.
2-Year Albert Genau Warranty
The Statü Optima 08 system is covered by a 2-year Albert Genau warranty starting from the date of installation.
The warranty specified by the manufacturer covers defects in manufacturing, materials, and installation.
Economic Solution
Optima 08 offers an economical and functional folding glass balcony solution as an alternative to higher-end premium glass balcony systems.
It is designed to meet basic usage needs in budget-conscious projects.
Key Features of the Optima 08
Opening and Closing a Glass Balcony Is Very Easy
Thanks to the Optima 08’s practical design, you can easily open and close your glass balcony.
The handle design used in the system is engineered to remain as discreet as possible when the system is closed.
The slim vertical profile not only maintains the system’s clean, minimalist appearance but also supports its insulation features.
A chain lock is used as standard. Comfort lock options can also be considered as needed.
Covert Water Discharge
The Optima 08’s support profiles feature an internal water drainage channel.
Rainwater that accumulates inside the profile is directed to the lower section of the profile and drained out in a controlled manner.
This design helps ensure that rainwater is managed in a controlled manner within the system in areas exposed to outdoor conditions, such as balconies and terraces.
Foldable Exit Arm
The foldable extension arm used in the Optima 08 leaves space around the glass balcony for applications such as curtains and roller shades.
The arm’s foldable design offers a significant practical advantage, especially when curtains or roller shades are to be used inside the balcony.
It also creates a simple, clean look that blends better with interior design.
Two Different Wick Options
On the Optima 08, the gaps between the glass panels are filled with transparent H-shaped gaskets as standard.
Optionally, specially designed aluminum gaskets can also be used in the spaces between the glass panels.
This allows customers to choose between transparent gaskets or more prominent aluminum details, depending on their aesthetic preferences.
Brand-Name, Warrantied, and Affordable
Although the Optima 08 falls into the economy segment, it is marketed as a branded glass balcony system.
The system, which is available through Albert Genau’s sales and dealer network, comes with a 2-year system warranty.

Optima 08 Features and Options
Lower Case and Threshold
The Optima 08 comes standard with a standard subframe/threshold.
Therefore, the various subframe options found in premium systems—such as threshold-less or floor-mounted installations—are not included in the Optima 08’s standard equipment.
Upper Case
The system uses a standard upper housing with a horn-shaped outlet.
This structure provides the upper support and guidance system necessary for the movement of the glass panels.
Lock Options
The Optima 08 is available with various lock options to suit different usage requirements.
- Lever handle lock
- Chain lock
- Knob lock
The choice of lock can be determined based on usage habits and the project’s requirements.
Wick Options
For the joints between glass panels:
- Plastic/transparent sealant
- Aluminum sealant
These options are available.
The choice of sealant can be made based on the appearance of the glass balcony and the customer’s expectations.
Curtain Adjustment and Height Adjustment Profile
The Optima 08 features a curtain adjustment/height adjustment profile.
This feature helps ensure that curtains or roller shades can be used more seamlessly with the glass balcony system.
Wing Mounting Bracket
The Optima 08 is equipped with a sash locking device (stopper).
The stopper helps ensure that the folding glass sashes move in a controlled manner and are held in the desired position.
Economical Folding System with 8 mm Glass
Optima 08 is a single-pane folding glass balcony system that uses 8 mm glass.
The 8 mm glass construction helps position the system in the economy segment.
When selecting glass thickness for a glass balcony installation, the balcony’s dimensions, sash widths, installation height, and usage conditions must be evaluated together.
Blade Width Up to 600 mm
For the Optima 08, the maximum sash width specified by the manufacturer is 600 mm.
Sash width is an important technical parameter in terms of the system’s mobility and the overall structure of the application.
The required number of sashes and partition dimensions are determined during the site survey based on the total width of the balcony.
System Height Up to 2,600 mm
According to the manufacturer’s specifications, the Optima 08 can be installed with a maximum system height of up to 2,600 mm.
Before installation, the suitability of the system should be assessed by checking the existing balcony height, floor conditions, and upper attachment points.
In What Fields Is the Optima 08 Used?
Statü Optima 08 can be used in a variety of residential and commercial settings.
- Balconies
- Terraces
- Apartment units
- Villas
- Summer homes
- Cafes and restaurants
- Commercial establishments
- Open and semi-open living spaces
It is a particularly good option for users looking to install a folding glass balcony on a budget.

Make Your Balcony More Functional with Optima 08
If you want to make your balcony more protected against rain, wind, and other outdoor elements while keeping your budget in check, the Albert Genau Statü Optima 08 offers an affordable folding glass balcony alternative.
Thanks to the folding glass panels, you can use your balcony closed when needed and open when needed.
When you slide the glass panels to one side, you can reclaim your balcony’s open living space; when you close the glass panels, you can create a barrier between yourself and the outside environment.
The Difference Between the Optima 08 and the Tiara 08
Although the Optima 08 and Tiara 08 are both single-pane folding glass balcony systems in the Albert Genau product line that use 8 mm glass, their equipment levels differ.
The Optima 08 is part of the economical “Statü” series and is focused on value for money.
The Tiara 08, on the other hand, is a more comprehensively equipped system in the premium series.
For example, while the Tiara 08 specifies a maximum sash width of 800 mm, a maximum height of 2,800 mm, and a 10-year corrosion warranty, the Optima 08 has maximum sash width and height of 600 mm and 2,600 mm, respectively, and does not include a corrosion warranty. The Tiara 08 also includes features such as a glass retainer, child lock, wind deflector, and European test certification, whereas the Optima 08 does not include these.
