In shopping malls and on shop fronts, manual sliding walls can be used to blend interior and exterior space in a barrier-free way. Manual sliding walls (MSW) from GEZE can be opened easily and "parked" in an impressively elegant fashion. And at the end of the day, they are easy to close. They are ideal for creating display windows or to divide sales space in furnishing or automobile showrooms. They can be employed to create transparent separate rooms in the foyer of a congress centre or hotel. Manual sliding walls can be used to define waiting areas and lounges in modern airports and stations. The laminated safety glass version can be used at night to separate the entrance hall and counter areas in banks.
The modular construction of the GEZE MSW enables the use of various system elements with a wide range of different functions. It allows individual systems to be implemented, even those with high design requirements, for example, point-held with designer fittings or integrated all-glass systems. The covers for the carrier and clamp profiles can be simply and quickly replaced, for example, when there is a change in occupier. This 'renovation' enables the implementation of a new shop design quickly and simply.
The new manual sliding walls from GEZE offer even more benefits. Leaf weights of up to 150 kilograms cover just about all applications. Maximum design freedom is assured thanks to the geometry of the runner rail profile - straight, continually curved or polygon. The manufacture of the new MSW now is possible with even reduced glass processing costs since the basic structure of the construction requires no holes in the glass. In addition, installation now is more convenient as well. During installation the high-quality surfaces are protected since the covers for the carrier and clamping profiles are fitted into place only at the end of the process. The runner rails are fitted with grooves on the sides. Connection brackets, for example, in suspended ceilings are fitted with sliding blocks so that less pressure is put on the runner rail. High-quality precision ball bearings and radial crossovers in the stacking area allow for very good running properties and low-noise operation.
