These systems are a combination of profiles and a roller mechanism. Profiles are made of steel and aluminium. The cost of aluminum profiles is higher. The roller mechanism can be at the bottom or at the top. The highest quality roller mechanisms have a bearing and a coating that allows the doors to slide silently.
An important element of sliding doors is the framing of the ends made of steel or aluminum. At the same time, it is also a handle with which the cabinet is opened. But the most convenient in the closet is the device inside it. The modular system includes shelves, drawers, hangers, and racks. Baskets and boxes are assembled into frame modules and can be driven out on rollers. You can choose the «stuffing» of the cabinet at your discretion.
