New CD guide to sliding systems
D R Services specialises in the design, supply and installation of frameless glass systems and fittings and has produced a new CD which details its services.
Unlike other pivot door systems on the market it does not require any cut-outs to be preformed in the glass door leaf.
Instead, security set screws are employed to clamp the two semi-cylindrical sections either side of the glass, forming a slimline, 50 mm diameter section when in place.
Sparta will support either 8mm or 10 mm thick toughened glass door leafs up to 900 mm wide and can of course be used to install double doorsets.
The maximum allowable leaf weight is 100 kG.
Available with either a matt or polished chrome finish, the Sparta Pivot Door Set is straightforward to install.
Utilising the same type of 100 mm diameter coring drill that plumbers use to cut holes in concrete slabs for drainage pipes, a 30 mm deep socket is drilled into the floor.
The base fitting/floorspring unit is secured into this recess while a pin and bush secure the top end of the door.
With the glass leaf or pair of doors in place, the tension on the floor springs can be set.
