8 OCTOBER 2016 PRO INSTALLER PRO NEWS www.proinstaller.co.uk NEW KIT FOR DOUBLE DOORS P C Henderson has released a new additional door kit to enhance its Rustic 80 sliding gear. Specifically created to meet the demand for double door installations, the new kit contains all the hardware needed to specify a two-door Rustic system. Rustic 80 meets the demand for a traditional look and is now capable of taking an additional door weighing up to 80kg. It is ideal for barn conversions, period properties, or as a unique feature in the home or workplace. Rustic 80 has been designed and tested for interior applications. It features exposed steel straps that fasten down the front of the door to support the rustic finish whilst the beautifully crafted hangers run smoothly along a flat bar track. It is available with nylon bearinged wheels to provide smooth and silent running and allows for ease of installation making it ideal for refurbishment and new build projects. Andrew Royle, sales and marketing director at P C Henderson, comments: “Up to now, customers wanting to hang two doors to cover one opening would have had to buy two systems, meaning that one track would not be used. Customers can now just specify one Rustic 80, with the option of the additional fixing kit for double door installations. “As the demand for double door applications increases our customers will benefit from a lower cost of specification as it eliminates the need to buy two systems when hanging double doors.” The main components of the Rustic 80 sliding hardware are made of carbon steel with a black powder coating finish for a sleek and elegant style. It comes with two different track lengths of 2m and 3m, and is tested to withstand over 100,000 cycles for maximum reliability. The new additional kit contains two hangers (boxes with fixings), two door stops, two anti-jump blocks with screws, one floor guide with screws and two black oval flush pulls. P C Henderson has been manufacturing sliding door hardware systems for over 90 years in the UK. Its British engineered systems are cost efficient and combine high performance with aesthetic appeal, meeting the requirements of architects
