SLIDING-STACKING PARTITIONS

PART 1 – GENERAL

**NOTE: THE PK30 SLIDING/STACKING SYSTEM IS A HARDWARE SYSTEM FOR STACKABLE PARTITIONS WEIGHING FROM 154 TO 330 LBS (70 TO 150 KG) PER PANEL. THE MODULAR TRACK SYSTEM AND ITS UNRIVALLED CORNERING TECHNIQUE PERMITS ALL DESIGN CONCEPTS OF ROOM PARTITIONS TO BE REALIZED QUICKLY AND WITHOUT PROBLEMS. THIS HARDWARE SYSTEM ALLOWS STRAIGHT TOP TRACKS / BOTTOM GUIDE CHANNELS AND CURVED SEGMENTS OF 15, 30, 45, 60, 75 AND 90 DEGREES TO BE COMBINED TO FORM INDIVIDUAL CONFIGURATIONS. DIFFERENT TROLLEYS ARE REQUIRED DEPENDING ON THE DOOR WEIGHT. THE SLIDING-STACKING PARTITIONS CAN BE MOVED INTO PARKING AREAS, EITHER PARALLEL OR AT PERPENDICULAR TO THE SLIDE AXIS. THE USE OF CONTINUOUS BOTTOM GUIDE CHANNELS IS NOT MANDATORY. THE BROAD APPLICATION RANGE REQUIRES THAT THE PK30 SLIDING/STACKING SYSTEM BE CUSTOM ENGINEERED TO ATTAIN THE BEST SOLUTION FOR A GIVEN PROJECT.**

**NOTE: SPECIAL CONDITIONS CAN BE ACCOMMODATED. PLEASE CONTACT PK30 SYSTEM IF YOUR PROJECT HAS UNUSUAL REQUIREMENTS OR CONDITIONS THAT HAVE NOT BEEN SPECIFICALLY ADDRESSED. SPECIALIZED SOLUTIONS ARE AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.**
