FIXING BRACKETS
A range of brackets has been designed to provide for most installations. All brackets should be fixed to the structure with correct screws/bolts.
CARRIERS
All A7 systems have precision steel ball bearings with steel tyres
and are available in 2 or 4 wheel carriers. All carriers have rated
maximum loads for reliable product performance. Ensure that only
2 carriers are used per door. If 3 carriers were used, potentially
the whole weight of the door can rest on the middle wheels.
FLOOR GUIDES
The bottom of straight sliding doors is secured with either a fixed blade guide inside a channel under the door or a roller guide sliding in a channel. The channel can be fixed to the door or to the floor.
