union 3 lever heavy duty sliding door lock

Product Description

The Union 62 Series heavy-duty top hung sliding door gear is a premium sliding door system. It is designed for both domestic and light commercial applications. Manufactured by Union, this sliding door gear is engineered for reliability, smooth operation, and long service life.

The 62 Series is suitable for timber doors weighing up to 80kg, with maximum door widths of 1000mm for single doors or 2000mm for twin doors.

Unlike bottom-rolling systems that are prone to debris accumulation and track damage, this top-hung sliding door gear suspends the door from a concealed overhead track. This allows the door to glide silently on precision ball-bearing trolleys. The bottom of the door is guided by a discreet floor guide that prevents swinging without bearing the door’s weight.

What Are the Key Features of the Union 62 Series Sliding Door Gear?

The Union 62 Series heavy-duty sliding door gear incorporates several features for reliable performance.

The 80kg load capacity means each trolley is rated for doors up to 80kg. This makes the system suitable for solid timber doors, glazed doors, and composite doors.

Ball bearing trolleys with precision-engineered trolleys and sealed ball bearings ensure smooth, quiet operation with minimal maintenance.

The concealed track is an aluminium track designed to be hidden from view when the door is closed. This preserves the clean aesthetic of modern interiors.

Adjustable trolleys allow height adjustment for fine-tuning the door position. This ensures proper alignment and smooth operation.

The anti-jump mechanism prevents the door from being lifted off the track, enhancing security and safety. The system is manufactured in England to high quality standards.

What Are the Specifications of the Union 62 Series Sliding Door Gear?

The maximum door weight is 80kg per door. The maximum door width for a single door is 1000mm. The maximum door height is 2100mm.

How Do You Install the Union 62 Series Sliding Door Gear?

Installation of the Union 62 Series heavy-duty sliding door gear requires careful attention to alignment.

First, the track must be mounted securely to the structural header above the opening using the provided brackets. Second, the top of the door must be prepared with a groove or recess to accept the trolley brackets.

Third, the floor guide is installed flush with the floor surface to guide the door’s bottom edge.

What Is the Difference Between Top Hung and Bottom Rolling Systems?

This is a key distinction.

A top-hung sliding door gear like the Union 62 Series suspends the full weight of the door from the overhead track. A bottom-rolling system supports the door on wheels that run along a floor track.

Top-hung systems are generally preferred for heavy doors because the track mechanism is not exposed to floor debris. Additionally, the door does not require a bottom track that can be a trip hazard.
