Precautions for purchasing sliding doors

☑️Look at the roller

When buying a sliding door, we must first observe the rollers it is equipped with, because this part is one of the important accessories. Generally speaking, the sliding hanger door rollers are divided into two groups: upper and lower. The upper roller is used for guiding and is installed in the upper track. For a good upper roller, the structure will be more complicated, except for the bearing inside. The two wheels also need to be fixed with aluminum blocks, so that the orientation will be more stable in use, and there will be no noise.

☑️Look at the profile

The profile of the sliding door is also a factor that needs to be considered when buying, such as: aluminum-magnesium alloy, secondary aluminum, etc. Most of the good quality sliding doors are made of aluminum, strontium and other alloys, which are very tough; while the poor quality are basically made of recycled aluminum, which is not very tough and prone to problems.

☑️Look at the track

Ground rail design is also very important for sliding doors. The design must be reasonable, because it is directly related to the comfort and service life of the door. The better the quality of the track, the higher the safety.
