3 Interior Framing Systems for Sliding Doors

Sliding doors are a popular feature in many modern office fronts. Frameworks Manufacturing shares a few interior framing systems that accommodate sliding doors:

Barn Sliders

Barn sliders have become a popular architectural choice for good reason; barn sliders give spaces that modern edge without compromising functionality. With a top hung surface mounted track, our barn doors glide smoothly without the necessity of a recessed floor track. With narrow, medium, or wide stiles accommodating ¼”, ⅜”, and ½” glass, barn sliders conserve space without compromising privacy.

Barn sliders can be paired with drywall cased openings for a more traditional feel or an aluminum framing system of your choice, such as Type I systems, Type 2 sidelites, or window walls for a modern, spacious appearance. 

Fixed Panel/Slider

Unlike our other sliding systems, the Fixed Panel/Slider system is unique because it attaches to the wall with a fixed door panel. Like our barn sliders, its doors glide along a top hung surface mounted track for quiet, smooth operation. A concealed door guide eliminates the need for any recessed floor track. With narrow, medium, or wide stiles accommodating ¼”, ⅜”, and ½” glass, fixed sliders conserve space.

This system is extremely versatile with endless elevation options. Choose from simple drywall cased openings or tie into aluminum profiles with our Type II sidelites, Type I systems, window walls, or cased openings.

Slim Slider

If you’re looking for a system that is functional and maximizes your space, our Slim Sliders are the perfect solution! This system is designed with minimal profiles for greater visibility, but can accommodate a wide range of frames and doors, such as swinging or sliding aluminum and even wood. For greater structural integrity, add corner posts or intermediate mullions.

Frameworks Manufacturing specializes in sleek, modern designs with concealed fastenings, rich colors, and recessed glazing pockets to add an architecturally-pleasing design aesthetic to any project.
