Not sure which type of architectural cavity unit you need? Here are the features and benefits of our architectural range, focusing on the Triline ProLine and Zero Clearance models. Each type offers unique advantages and is suitable for different scenarios.
1. Triline ProLine Cavity Unit:
Pros:
- Architectural Feel: The ProLine unit provides a more sophisticated and architectural look to doorways, enhancing the overall aesthetics.
- Daylight Clearance: With a daylight clearance of 8mm (reducible to 5mm without a pelmet), it ensures a clean and minimalistic appearance.
- Compatible Jamb Finishes: The ProLine pairs well with EzyJamb, P25, or P50 jamb finishes, offering design versatility.
- Quick Installation: It is quicker to install compared to the Zero Clearance unit.
- Affordable Option: ProLine is an affordable choice for achieving the desired architectural look.
- Customizable: While ideal for lightweight standard-sized doors, it can also be customized for non-standard sized doors, allowing flexibility in design and functionality.
Cons:
- Weight Limit: ProLine works with doors up to 60kg, making it unsuitable for heavier doors.
- Noisier Running System: It may produce slightly more noise during operation compared to the Zero Clearance hangers.
When to use Triline ProLine:
The Triline ProLine cavity unit is best suited for projects where lightweight, standard-sized doors are involved, and a clean, architectural appearance is desired. It is an excellent choice for projects with limited budgets and where the door weight does not exceed 60kg.
2. Triline Zero Clearance Cavity Unit:
Pros:
- Minimalistic Appearance: With an impressive 3mm clearance between the track and the top of the door, the Zero Clearance unit provides a truly minimalist and elegant look.
- Smooth and Quiet Sliding: The anodized aluminum track and precision bearing bottom roller guide system ensure smooth and quiet sliding motion.
- High Load Capacity: It can handle heavier doors, ranging from 80kg to 350kg, without compromising safety or functionality.
- Floor to Ceiling Sliding Doors: The option for full height floor-to-ceiling units adds to its design versatility.
- Excellent Quality: The Zero Clearance unit is made of high-quality materials, ensuring durability and longevity.
Cons:
- Higher Cost: The Zero Clearance unit is more expensive than the ProLine, which may impact budget considerations.
- Installation Time: Due to its complex design and higher load capacity, it may take longer to install compared to the ProLine.
When to use Triline Zero Clearance:
The Triline Zero Clearance cavity unit is ideal for projects where a premium, high-quality custom sliding door system is required. It is suitable for heavier doors, large door panels up to 3m high and wide, and situations where a virtually invisible clearance between the door and track is desired.
Conclusion:
Choosing between the ProLine and Zero Clearance pocket door systems depends on the specific requirements of your project. If you prioritize affordability, quick installation, and have lightweight standard-sized doors, the ProLine is the better choice. On the other hand, if you seek the utmost in design elegance, require a high load capacity, and have a larger budget, the Zero Clearance unit is the superior option.
Always consider the door’s weight, size, and the desired aesthetic when selecting the most suitable architectural cavity sliding door for your project.
