Can I use any sliding door with the Absolute Evo Single Pocket Door Kit?

While the Absolute Evo Single Pocket Door Kit is usable with a wide range of standard-size pocket doors, it is not suitable for all doors. In the product listing, you will see a dropdown menu featuring numerous door-size dimensions. Choose the dimensions that fit the door you will be using to ensure the installation process will run smoothly. Alternatively, get in touch with Runners if you have any questions.

Is the Absolute Evo Single Pocket Door Kit durable?

Very. This single pocket door kit has been put through rigorous testing before being made available for purchase, including testing the rollers to up to 100,000 cycles. This means, in all likelihood, users of this kit will enjoy countless hours of uninterrupted use once it’s installed, making it excellent value for money and a great product to have in your arsenal if you’ll be offering pocket door installation for your clients.

Can I use the Absolute Evo Single Pocket Door Kit to install sliding glass doors?

It is possible to install single-pocket glass doors with the Absolute Evo kit, but not as it comes. You can pair the kit with a glass conversion kit from Runners to allow for the installation and smooth rolling of glass pocket doors. For more information on the glass conversion kit, or to check if any of our other products meet your requirements more closely, speak to a Runners expert today.

Can I use doors heavier than 120kg with the Absolute Evo Pocket Door Kit?

No. The Absolute Evo pocket door kit cannot be used with pocket doors heavier than 120kg. The components in the kit are designed to be used with doors lighter than this. Using doors heavier than 120kg could put the structural integrity of the door and the system at risk. If you need a pocket door system that can handle heavier doors, feel free to explore the rest of the Runners range to find something more suitable.

Greenoak Case Study

Experience Speaks Volumes: Greenoak Finds Success with the Multirail™ Overhead Runway System

Greenoak Multirail Case Study

Greenoak is an Oxfordshire-based construction and joinery business working on all types of buildings from new build to listed. The company recently installed a Multirail™ overhead runway system in their spray booth, supplied by Runners UK. The spray booth in their workshop is approximately 20m by 8m at the widest point.

Greenoak previously used a turntable to dry all their spayed timberwork, but this proved to be time-consuming. Today, Greenoak uses a Multirail™ system that allows the items to hang from hooks and air dry, making for a far more efficient process, allowing them to complete more work in record time.

Mark Glendinning, Director at Greenoak, was thrilled at the results:

“Since our Multirail™ system was installed in the spray booth we have experienced many benefits. The main advantage is that we can process spray work much more quickly, in fact, we have saved so much time in the spray booth that we are taking on spray work from other joiners, as it’s more cost-effective for them to outsource to us”.

Daniel Wells, Sales Director at Runners UK commented:

“Many joiners have installed our Multirail™ system into their spray booths, they are particularly popular for companies producing timber windows, doors and other carpentry items, saving them time, simplifying the process and overall allowing the joiners to produce a superior finished product.”
