An elongated member for a shower door assembly includes a protrusion configured to be received within a channel of a header to slidably couple the elongated member to the header. The elongated member is configured to be slid within the channel between a first position to allow for a shower door to be installed onto, or removed from, the header and a second position to substantially impede upright movement of the shower door when the shower door is moved along the header.

A laminated glass header for supporting a shower door. The header may have a taper at one or both of its ends to provide an automatic full open or full close feature of the door.

A method of installing a storm door is disclosed. The method includes the steps of: attaching a track to a door head; attaching one or more rollers to the track; and attaching the storm door to the one or more rollers. After the storm door is installed, the storm door can be slid along a length of the track between an open position and a closed position. While sliding the storm door between the open position and the closed position, the storm door remains generally parallel to the door head.

An arrangement in the door structure of an elevator includes at least an elevator car with doors and door panels, landing doors of the landing areas with door panels and a hanger carriage of each door panel, as well as a top track for the doors, supported on which top track the doors are suspended. The top track includes a separate frame beam, which is enclosed for essentially its whole length with a reinforcement structure.

A shower enclosure sliding door mechanism (1) includes a first member provided on a door (3) of a shower enclosure, and a second member provided on a frame (5) of the shower enclosure, the first and second members slidably engaged with each other such that a first bearing surface (33) of the first member slidably engages a second bearing surface (27) of the second member. The first bearing surface is formed from a first low friction material and the second bearing surface is formed from a second low friction material, such that a low friction interface is formed between the first member and the second member.

A movable partition system that can include branched overhead rails where movable panels, such as glass doors, wall panels, are guided along the branched overhead rails by path guides positioned with the overhead rails. The guide paths are shaped and aligned within the overhead rails to provide a smooth transition at the junction between overhead rails. The combination is suitable for use with both right-angle and oblique angle branched overhead rails.

A guide assembly for a sliding shower door is provided with a bracket sized to be fastened to a shower door opening. The bracket has a first lengthwise retainer. A guide with a second lengthwise retainer is sized to be retained by the first lengthwise retainer of the bracket. The guide has at least one channel formed therein and is sized to receive a shower door pane within the channel for translation of the shower door pane relative to the guide.

An arrangement for guiding at least two furniture doors relative to a stationary furniture part includes: at least two guide rails; a first carriage mounted (possibly movably) on a first of the guide rails and which is connectable to a first of the at least two furniture doors; and a second carriage mounted (possibly movably) on the other of the guide rails and which is connectable to another of the at least two furniture doors. A connection device can releasably connect the guide rails at one end, the guide rails being arranged substantially in alignment with one another when in a connected state. An adjustment device can allow an adjustment of at least two ends of the guide rails relative to the stationary furniture part in a direction transverse to a longitudinal extent of the guide rails.

A system has a weight having a base that has at least one pair of rollers provided at the rear end of the base, and a track having a wheel or rollers provided adjacent the front end of the track. The base travels along the track between a first position where the at least one pair of rollers is at the rear end of the track, and a second position where the at least one pair of rollers is adjacent the wheel or rollers of the track, with the track functioning as a stop element to limit the frontward motion of the at least one pair of rollers.

A slide member having a slide surface (14) coated with a lacquer comprising a resin(16). The lacquer is in turn at least partly coated with a lipophilic composition coating (18). The lipophilic composition coating provides a slide layer (19) on the slide member with low friction.
