One kit has two large roller
assemblies with a total of 16 ball bearing
rollers. Also included is the ball bearing
bottom guide, stops interior to the track
and wrenches for adjusting the height. $89.00
The top Rail holds the weight
of the door and is Champagne colored. If you
want two sliding doors that bypass, then you
need to have two tracks.
Fixed panels can be installed in a variety
of ways, such as top and bottom U-Channel.
Fixed panels are essentially installed separate
but adjacent to the sliding door.
THE HOLES: This design
requires 4 holes in the glass. Other brands,
such as the EPCO, do not, however other brands
are many times the cost.
The hole allows the clamp to tighten down
more on the glass. The glass does not hang
from the hole.
The drawback: 1/2"
Glass is a problem. It can be done with custom
gaskets but I recommend 3/8" to keep
things simple. The hole is too close to the
edge for 1/2" Glass. This means that
the hole has to be relieved by cutting a saw
kerf from the edge to the hole. Otherwise
there will be too much stress in the tempering
oven. The hole is a complication compared
to Hafele and EPCO
but it actually makes the whole system much
stronger and safer.
