Fitzroy® Parallel track systems are an excellent solution for maximising wide openings without requiring the internal space needed for large sliding doors.
Our A100P Alloy Light Fitzroy® Parallel (for doors up to 100kg) and A500P Alloy Medium Fitzroy® Parallel (for doors up to 500kg) can accommodate arrangements from two to six doors opening to either one or both sides behind a wall, fixed panel or into a cavity.
These top-hung systems include robust custom collecting mechanisms that enable the doors to open and close sequentially, with only the leading door requiring operation.
For individual track details and specifications, refer to our A100 Alloy Light Fitzroy® or A500 Alloy Medium Fitzroy® sliding door track systems, depending on the door weight.
Please note: For parallel arrangements using steel Fitzroy® tracks, sequential door collecting mechanisms must be incorporated into the door design, as Fitzroy® parallel door collectors are compatible with aluminium Fitzroy® tracks only.
As with our straight sliding door tracks the A100P and A500P suit a large range of doors widths and heights, are compatible with a wide variety of door constructions and provide easy, smooth and reliable operation.
