1/4" x 72" Glass Door Assembly, Satin Clear Anodized Finish
Description
1/4 x 72 Glass Door Assembly For Sliding Use
1/4 x 72 glass door assembly from EPCO is a sliding door hardware set designed specifically for two glass door applications, so it gives you a matched upper guide, track, and rolling components sized for a 72 inch opening. The hardware is made of aluminum with a satin clear anodized aluminum finish, which provides corrosion-free anodized aluminum members that hold up well in typical interior environments where moisture or handling can be an issue. Corrosion-free anodized aluminum members are ideal for lightweight 1/4 inch thick two glass door installations, so you can hang smaller glass panels without overbuilding the frame. Plastic guides are designed to fit into the top of 1/4 inch glass, which stabilizes the glass edge in the upper guide during operation. Sets are designed for two glass door applications, giving you a coordinated solution for paired sliding glass doors.
Sliding Glass Door Hardware Details That Matter
- Hardware sets are designed with all set components in four lengths - 36, 48, 60, and 72 inches - so you can match the track length to a range of standard opening sizes and keep layouts consistent across projects.
- Corrosion-free anodized aluminum members are ideal for lightweight 1/4 inch thick two glass door installations, which helps maintain smooth movement while reducing concerns about rust in typical indoor woodworking or cabinet settings.
- Plastic guides are designed to fit into the top of 1/4 inch glass, so the glass edge seats positively in the guide channel and tracks reliably without metal-to-glass contact at the top.
- Hardware is made of aluminum with a satin clear anodized aluminum finish, which gives the visible track and metal components a neutral look that pairs easily with common cabinet and fixture finishes.
- Easily cut to fit any width opening, so the 72 inch length can be trimmed on site to match custom cabinet, casework, or niche dimensions while keeping the factory track profile.
Installation And Glass Cutting For Proper Fit
Glass should be cut 1-7/32 inch shorter than height of opening, which creates the working clearance needed for the upper guide, top plastic guides, and lower track to capture the door without binding. This fixed dimension simplifies layout because the required glass height is defined relative to the actual opening height. Easily cut to fit any width opening means the aluminum members can be trimmed to match your casework, so you can start with the 72 inch length and size it down for narrower cabinets or wall openings. Plastic guides are designed to fit into the top of 1/4 inch glass, giving a straightforward engagement detail at the top edge that aligns with common glass fabrication practices.
Where This Glass Door Assembly Works Best
Sliding Glass Door Assembly For Two Panels
Sets are designed for two glass door applications, so this EPCO 14-A-6 configuration suits installations where a pair of 1/4 inch glass panels slide past each other in a shared opening. Corrosion-free anodized aluminum members are ideal for lightweight 1/4 inch thick two glass door installations, aligning with cabinet, display case, or similar light-duty sliding uses that rely on modest panel weight. Hardware sets are designed with all set components in four lengths - 36, 48, 60, and 72 inches - and this 72 inch version fits wider spans or can be trimmed to suit shorter openings while retaining the same component relationships.
Details Supporting Smooth Sliding And Repeatable Sizing
Plastic guides are designed to fit into the top of 1/4 inch glass, so each door has a defined bearing point in the upper guide that helps it track straight and reduces side rattle as the door moves. Corrosion-free anodized aluminum members are ideal for lightweight 1/4 inch thick two glass door installations, which supports consistent rolling performance over time where the door weight stays within the intended light-duty range. Glass should be cut 1-7/32 inch shorter than height of opening, providing a repeatable sizing rule that ties directly to the actual field opening so multiple doors on a project can be fabricated to the same dimension. Easily cut to fit any width opening gives flexibility during layout changes, because the aluminum hardware can be shortened to final width without altering the core design of the sliding system.
