External Sliding / A14
The A14 system for external sliding doors and shutters with precision
bearings is designed for use with larger panels in residential and
commercial installations. The straight sliding track can be fixed
by screwing directly through the track to the head, or supported
with a variety of side and head fix brackets. The brackets allow
either single or parallel tracks providing many possible door opening
combinations.

FIXING BRACKETS
A range of brackets has been designed to suit most installations. All brackets should be fixed to the structure with appropriate screws/bolts.
CARRIERS
All A14 systems have steel ball bearings with either nylon or
steel tyres and are available in 2 or 4 wheel carriers. All carriers
have rated maximum door weights for reliable product performance.
For optimal quiet operation, Centor Architectural recommends the
combination of aluminium track and nylon tyres.
FLOOR GUIDES
The bottom of straight sliding doors is secured with either a fixed blade guide inside a grooved door or a roller guide sliding in a channel. The channel can either be fixed: to the bottom of the door with the guide roller on the floor, or to the floor with the roller guide on the bottom of the door.

Track is available in roll-formed galvanised steel and extruded aluminium. Aluminium track is available in satin and gold anodised finishes. Track can be powdercoated upon request.
