The Vertical side rail includes a self-flashing J-channel and provides easy door panel skin installation with a professional look. Sturdy, rust-free aluminum materials offer long-lasting functionality, finished look and quick assembly. The side rail profile conceals all exposed steel, giving the panel a smooth, clean edge that won't cut or scratch. An optional vinyl weather seal can easily slide into the built-in T-slot for quick, easy weather sealing.
216 Double Couple
Double Couple design aligns both sliding door panels together when the door is closed, preventing wind and rain intrusion. The H-rail functionality actually wraps the edge of the joining door panel, offering a stronger connection while it increases unit durability and sliding door system longevity. For easy installation of the door panel skin, a built-in J-channel is included.
244 Bottom Rail
Used with a continuous guide rail to provide optimal wind resistance for the Kwik Frame Sliding Door System. Strong aluminum construction provides additional support for the door panel, saving cost and assembly time associated with an unnecessary bottom horizontal grit. Two built-in channels within the rail allow for the use of an optional vinyl or brush seal to keep out dust, dirt, rain, and snow. The bottom rail design can conceal a guide rail or stay roller - preventing door sway and providing clean operation.
Steel Girts
A 20-gauge galvanized steel beam sized for optimal door frame construction and designed for ideal horizontal support on sliding door frames.
The hollow girt design offers more strength and less weight than comparable lumber horizontals, providing easier installation and lighter full-assembled doors. Provides long-lasting, rust-free materials which avoid the rotting and warping issues associated with 2x4 lumber.
