PVC Strip Doors Mounting Hardware
Header Mount ~
Standard hardware option is mounted underneath the lintel and between the jambs of the doorway. Works well in both exterior or interior door openings and in conjunction with roll up doors.
Wall Mount~
Best for situations where the load is close to the top of the door opening. The hardware mounts just above the door opening allowing access to the full height of the door without excessive pressure on the strips.
Sliding Mount~
The sliding mount hardware allows the strip curtain to slide clear of the opening. Available in single slide, bi-passing and bi-parting.
Recommended Size (width) of Gateway’s PVC to be used in the installation of doors.
