guide channel 1222 is a continuous guide channel from Hettich America Corporation that works as the floor guide element in a sliding door hardware run. By forming a fixed track under the door, it keeps the bottom of the panel running in line, which helps reduce sway and binding in day-to-day operation. This guide channel is used with the no. 1211 guide roller, so the roller rides inside the profile while the main sliding system carries the door weight above. The channel measures 5/8 inch by 3/4 inch, or 16 by 19 mm, tying directly into common sliding door layout dimensions. The 12 foot length lets installers span wide openings or cut multiple shorter runs from a single piece, which streamlines layout work and reduces joints along the floor.
This Hettich guide channel 1222 can be mortised into a floor, so installers can rout or trench a groove that matches the 16 by 19 mm dimensions and drop the channel in flush. That approach puts the 0.093 inch thick extruded aluminum profile below the walking surface, which can be helpful where a smoother transition across the doorway is desired. The same channel may also be surface mounted, so crews can fasten it directly on top of the finished floor where a recess is not prepared. In both mounting methods, the 5/8 inch by 3/4 inch section defines how the no. 1211 guide roller tracks at the bottom of the sliding door, which supports consistent alignment with the upper sliding hardware.
This continuous guide channel 1222 is designed to be used with the no. 1211 guide roller, placing it in the role of the lower guide track in a sliding door hardware layout. When the 1211 guide roller runs inside the 5/8 inch by 3/4 inch aluminum profile, the door gains a constrained path at the bottom edge, which supports straighter travel as the upper sliding components carry the load. The 12 foot length helps when laying out longer runs, since a single channel piece can extend across wide openings common in room dividers or large cabinet fronts. In smaller openings, the same length allows multiple cut segments from one channel, so installers can serve several shorter door spans on one job while maintaining the same guiding geometry.
The stated dimensions of 16 by 19 mm give clear reference numbers for matching the guide channel to door thickness, bottom edge clearance, and floor preparation. Because the 5/8 inch by 3/4 inch profile is fixed, repeated installations can follow the same mortise depth or surface layout, which supports predictable roller engagement as crews move from one opening to another. The channel is made from 0.093 inch thick extruded aluminum, so the track wall and base thickness are defined for planning how it sits relative to the floor finish. That metal construction supplies a stable running surface for the no. 1211 guide roller in normal sliding door environments, which helps keep the lower guide path true once the system is in service. By combining a known profile size with a continuous, rigid aluminum extrusion, this guide channel supports repeatable sliding door setups that share the same bottom guide geometry across multiple installations.
Guide channel 1222 is part of sliding door hardware and acts as a continuous floor guide, working with the no. 1211 guide roller to control the bottom of a sliding door.
The Hettich 50147 guide channel section is 12 feet long, allowing coverage of wide openings or cutting into shorter pieces to match different sliding door spans.
This guide channel can be mortised into the floor, so a groove matching the 16 by 19 mm dimensions can be prepared to recess the aluminum track below the walking surface.
This sliding door guide channel 12ft can be surface mounted on the floor, creating a defined track path for the no. 1211 guide roller at the bottom of the door.
The aluminum guide channel 16x19mm measures 5/8 inch by 3/4 inch, giving clear sizing for routing, trenching, or aligning the door bottom with the 1211 guide roller.
This guide channel is made from 0.093 inch thick extruded aluminum, providing a defined metal wall thickness for a stable, durable lower guide track.
Choosing this guide channel 1222 from Hettich America Corporation ties the sliding door layout directly to a continuous aluminum floor guide sized at 5/8 inch by 3/4 inch. The 12 foot length, 0.093 inch thick extruded aluminum construction, and use with the no. 1211 guide roller give installers a clearly defined bottom guide solution. When a project calls for either mortised or surface mounted floor guiding in a sliding door hardware setup, this profile provides a consistent geometry that can be repeated across openings for uniform tracking.
