Multi-panel, single track sliding system with large glass walls

NanaWall Systems announced its newest product for builders, architects, developers and homeowners, the NanaWall VSW65 Single Track Slider. The NanaWall VSW65 Single Track Slider is a wood-framed, individual panel single sliding system that makes large openings possible. for homes and commercial buildings. With its single track, the custom system provides a clean line for a seamless transition from inside rooms to outside spaces . The VSW65 is easy to operate and can be designed to slide into a pocket.

For years, architects have been trying to design projects with large glass walls that completely disappear when open - a seamless transition from inside to outside that is also weather-resistant and easy to operate. Past solutions have had multiple tracks with thick wall requirements, were difficult to operate (since multiple panels were hooked together) and had limited weather resistance. The NanaWall VSW65 Single Track Slider addresses all these issues.

NanaWall Systems' opening glass walls can be installed anywhere a traditional wall would stand and provide flexible solutions to large architectural openings. The NanaWall VSW65 Single Track Slider is a multi-panel, single track sliding system with large glass walls that easily glide open and close. Each system is custom designed to the size and number of panels needed, and can have an almost unlimited number of panels. The maximum individual panel width is four feet (48 inches). The maximum unit height is 9 feet 10 inches. When open, the panels can be stored in a choice of four parking bays or a pocket closet.

Engineering benefits of the NanaWall VSW65 Single Track Slider:
1. The wall can be very easily moved since each panel is moved independently and is not hooked to other panels.
2. The main weight is borne by the top track, which ensures smooth operation even when there is some dirt or debris in the bottom track.
3. Quiet and rattle-proof operation because of the patented, pre-fitted NanaWall hardware with sealed, ball bearing multi-roller running carriages.
4. Single source supplier with more than 20 years experience in engineered, precision-built systems with pre-fitted hardware for large opening glass walls
