12' Aluminum Extruded By-passing Double Track 7002

12' Aluminum Double Track For Bi-Pass Doors

12' aluminum extruded by-passing double track is a 12 foot aluminum extruded track designed for bi-pass door applications, giving installers a continuous run for wider openings where two doors slide past each other. The track is positioned to work with .75 inch bi-pass doors, so the geometry lines up with doors built around that common thickness. Double aluminum carrier tracks are formed into the extrusion, creating two defined running channels so each door has its own path for smoother movement in a compact head space. The build as a dedicated sliding door hardware component fits typical builders hardware and sliding door hardware jobs in residential or light commercial work. Hettich America Corporation branding on this 7002 series component ties it back to a recognized sliding system line installers know, which supports consistent hardware selection across a project.

Key Track Details For Sliding Door Projects

• The 12 foot overall length lets you span long bi-pass door openings in one piece, reducing joint transitions along the run which supports straighter door travel.
• Aluminum extruded construction creates a consistent profile along the full length, helping carriers run on an even surface for smoother sliding motion.
• Double aluminum carrier tracks are integrated in one extrusion, so two doors can operate on separate channels while sharing a single mounting line.
• Track design is stated for .75 inch bi-pass doors, aligning the running channels with doors built to that thickness for more predictable clearances.
• Holes at every 11 inches are pre-positioned along the track, giving repeated fastening points that help distribute load and simplify layout on typical framing.
• Recommended fasteners are #8 x 1-1/4 inch panhead screws, which matches a common screw size and length for securing the track into wood headers.

Mounting And Fastening Details For This Track

The 12FT ALUM.TRACK for .75 bi-pass doors is drilled with holes at every 11 inches, so fastening spots are already laid out along the run, supporting consistent anchoring without separate measuring for each point. Using #8 x 1-1/4 inch panhead screws as the recommended fasteners ties the track to a standard screw size and style many installers already carry, which streamlines job setup and reduces changeover between tools or bits. As an aluminum extruded profile, the track remains relatively light for its 12 foot length, which helps when lifting it into position at the header while still providing a defined guide for the door carriers.

Using The 7002 Double Track In Real Projects

Where This Hettich Sliding Track Fits Best

This double aluminum carrier track with holes at every 11 inches is suited to sliding door hardware projects where two doors need to bypass each other, such as closets or room dividers framed for .75 inch thick doors. The 12 foot length lets it handle wider spans or multiple door panels in one continuous piece, which can help maintain alignment across the opening. As part of the builders hardware and sliding door hardware category, it fits into door systems where the head track coordinates with compatible carriers and guides to form a complete sliding assembly. The Hettich America Corporation manufacturer identity and 50531 part number give a clear reference for matching this 7002 series track within broader Hettich sliding door layouts on multi-opening jobs.

Details That Support Repeatable Track Installation

The extruded aluminum profile provides a stable reference edge along the entire track, so once the first end is set, the rest of the run follows a consistent line, which is important for keeping door carriers from binding. Holes at every 11 inches create a predictable fastening rhythm, which supports even load transfer into the header and reduces the chance of high spots between fasteners. The double track design means each door runs in its own aluminum carrier track, which separates door paths and helps maintain clearance when doors pass. Stating the track as for .75 inch bi-pass doors signals how the carriage channels relate to door thickness, so clearances at overlaps and jambs can be planned around that reference. Pairing the track with recommended #8 x 1-1/4 inch panhead screws ties the mounting method to a known length that penetrates typical wood framing while still seating securely in the track holes.
