Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the correct size of double channel top for my sliding panels?
Select a size that accommodates the thickness and height of your sliding panel or door, allowing a small clearance for smooth movement. The size options given in millimetres indicate the key dimensions of the channel section; check these against your panel thickness and any bottom track or roller gear you are using.
Can the rigid PVC double channel top be cut to shorter lengths on site?
Yes, the rigid PVC profile can be cut to size using standard tools such as a fine-toothed saw or suitable power saw. Always measure carefully, support the profile during cutting and deburr the edges to maintain a smooth sliding surface.
Is this double channel top suitable for use in damp or humid environments?
Rigid PVC offers good resistance to moisture and is suitable for many indoor damp or humid environments, such as utility rooms or covered areas. It should not be used where it will be exposed to prolonged direct sunlight or harsh chemicals without further assessment of suitability.
