Sliding Doors

A sliding door is a type of door which opens horizontally by sliding, usually parallel to a wall. Sliding doors can be mounted either on top of a track below or be suspended from a track above and some types 'disappear' in a wall when slid open, Sliding doors are commonly used as shower doors, glass doors, screen doors, wardrobe doors or in vans.

Sliding Door Gear

The mechanism used to operate a sliding door is called sliding door gear. There are two standard types, top hung or bottom rolling systems. Both types do not have a perfect seal. To reduce air- and smoke-tightness and sound insulation, brush seals are commonly used.

Lift and Slide Door Gear

A sliding door that is lifted from the frame during opening and closing is called a lift-and-slide door. This allows for a better seal, with less draught and better sound proving.


Automatic Sliding Doors

Some sliding doors contain a motor and activation system to open them. These are called sliding door operators. Automatic sliding doors are commonly found in offices and shop entrances. These doors contain a magnetic locking mechanism that automatically unlocks during emergencies.


Usages:

The mechanism is also secure, since it cannot be lifted out of its hinges. Sliding doors are commonly found as store-, hotel and office entrances, elevators, patios doors, closet doors and room dividers. Transport industries also use sliding doors in vans, trains and metro.
