The scenario
What buyers run into
The panel is heavy, and the fixing has to carry it without cracking the glass or letting the panel drift out of line.
How to specify this scenario
Decide first whether the panel is fixed or sliding, then the glass thickness, the clamp mounting (wall or post) and the track type for a sliding panel.
Typical configuration
The parts this scenario is usually built from
- Glass clamps
- Wall mount or post mount, single or double sided.
- Sliding door rollers
- Top-hung or bottom guide, for sliding partitions.
- Tube connectors
- For rail and balustrade systems.
Load and safety
12 mm is used for larger, heavier panels and doors in constant daily use. The fitting is machined for one glass thickness and cannot be adapted afterwards.
Installation notes
Clamps and fittings are machined for one glass thickness. Work from the drawing supplied with the model you ordered rather than from the fitting that came off.
Common mistakes
Setting clamps by eye instead of to the fixing distance.
The panel can drift out of line or the clamp can be over-tightened against the glass.
How to avoid: Work from the fixing distance on the drawing for the model you ordered.
Fixing hardware ordered for a different glass thickness.
The fitting is machined for one thickness and cannot be adapted.
How to avoid: Check the parts against the glass before drilling.
