Exterior Sliding Door Hardware

Not necessarily. Runners’ exterior sliding door systems are built to be used in external settings thanks to their robust build quality and anti-degrading properties.

However, these qualities make them just as effective when used in internal settings, too. Before you purchase a sliding door system from Runners, be sure to check the product details to see whether it is best suited to outdoor or indoor jobs.

Alternatively, get in touch with the Runners team today and we’d be happy to advise you on which product would be best for your project.

Exterior sliding door systems are built with the weather in mind. Because they’re situated outdoors, they need to be able to withstand changes in weather – including rain, sleet and snow – as well as temperature changes, all while maintaining their structural integrity.

That’s why many exterior sliding door tracks are crafted from aluminium, which does not degrade in the presence of water or moisture, making it an ideal choice for external applications.

But be sure to check the product listing for specific weatherproofing qualities, or reach out if you need more information.

Yes – before ordering an exterior sliding door system from Runners, you should already be aware of the weight of the doors you will be working with. Sliding door systems are designed to be used with specific door weights, so that the track being used can uphold the doors in question.

Pairing a sliding door track with the wrong doors can result in them not opening and closing as planned, or the system failing entirely.
