DOOR OPERATION
DOOR OPERATION
Bypass Sliding
 Doors slide on overhead track and along guides or track on the floor .
 Requires no operating space but is difficult to seal against weather and
sound.
 Offers access only through 50% of doorway width .
 Used on exterior as sliding glass door.
 Used in interiors primarily for visual screening.
SURFACE SLIDING;
 Similar to a bypass sliding door but
provide access through full with of
doorway.
 No operating space required but is
difficult to weatherproof.
 Door is surface-hung on an exposed
overhead track.
POCKET SLIDING
 Door slides on an overhead track into
and out of a recess with in the width
of a wall.
 Used often where a normal door swing
would inter face with the use of a
space
 Doorway has finished appearance
when fully open .
REVOLVING DOOR
 The Door consists of a centrally placed mullion to which four radiating shutters are
attached ,as shown in figure
 The mullion or vertical member is supported on ball bearing at the bottom, and
has bush bearing at the top, so that its rotation is with out any jerk, friction and noise.
 The shutters may be fully glazed, fully paneled .
 Vertical rubber pieces are provided at the rubbing ends of shutters to prevent drought
of air.
 The radiating shutters can be folded where traffic is more.
Uses:
Such doors are provided only public buildings such as libraries, museums bank etc.
Door Diameter :1.9m-2.235m
Door Opening :1.35-1.5m
SLIDING DOOR
SLIDING DOOR
A sliding door is a type of door which opens horizontally by
sliding, whereby the door is either mounted on or suspended
from a track.
SLIDING DOOR GEAR
The mechanism used to operate a sliding door is
called Door Gear. There are two standard types
SLIDING DOOR GEAR
TOP HUNG
BOTTOM ROLLING
TOP HUNG SYSTEM
Most often used
The door is hung by two trolley
hangers at the top of the door
running in a concealed track
All the weight is taken by the
hangers
At each end is a track stopper
to absorb any impact made if
the door is slammed and to
hold the door in the open or
closed position.
All top hung sliding door gear
systems have a maximum
weight limit pair of trolley
hangers
As the door is hung at the top
from two points, it needs
additional guides at the bottom
to prevent it from swinging
sideways.
Sliding doors offer
many benefits, which
make them a great
option.
Ease of use
Energy efficient
Offers security
Space saver
Easy access
BOTTOM ROLLING SYSTEM
• Sometimes a top hung system cannot be
used, as the weight of the door cannot be
supported from above; in this case bottom
rolling system is recommended
• It consist of two rollers at the bottom of the
door running on a track and two guides at
the top running in a guide channel
• All the weight is concentrated on the two
bottom wheels, more force is needed to
move the door.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TOP HUNG AND BOTTOM ROLLING HANGER DOORS
• Top Hung Sliding Doors
• With a top hung sliding door the entire weight of the
door is concentrated on the building’s header. The
building from which the door is supported should be
strong enough to carry the door’s entire weight and
the loads imposed.
• Bottom Rolling Hangar Doors
• The bottom rolling door offers a far more design
efficient building that will cost you less. There is no
need for the building to carry the door’s load up top.
Instead the bottom of the door carries the majority of
the weight.
• Difference :
• With top hung doors, the doors are “hanging” from the
top track, (so all the weight is at the top) and with
bottom rolling doors they roll along the bottom track
(so all the weight is at the bottom). Both systems will
have a guide that runs along the other track.
• we will have to ensure that the lintel above where the
doors are to be fitted is strong enough to take both the
weight of the doors and the weight of whatever is
above the doors (wall, roof etc). With bottom rolling
doors all the weight is at the bottom, so this doesn’t
apply.
WOODEN SLIDING DOOR
SLIDING FOLDING DOOR/BIFOLD DOOR
BIFOLD DOOR
1. Hinged door panels fold flat against one another when opened .
2. Bifold doors divide into two parts , require little operating space , and are used
primarily as a visual screen to enclose closet and storage spaces.
3. Accordion doors are multi-leafed doors that are used primarily to subdivide
interior spaces .
