Hi-Impact Jambs from CS Cavity Sliders

A CS Cavity Slider is a functional and efficient alternative to conventional surface sliding or hinged doors. Our Cavity Slider units enable a door to slide inside the wall leaving the floor and wall space on both sides clear and unobstructed.

The CS Hi-Impact Jambs have been developed for use in areas subject to damaged jambs and wall linings. The split jambs, closing jambs and head jambs are made from extruded aluminum with a 3.5mm thick wall (twice the normal thickness of our standard aluminium jamb) and are designed to accept 26mm thick linings on both sides.

A big advantage of using a cavity sliding unit in an area subject to trolley impact damage is that the door leaf can be opened fully into the cavity, eliminating the door leaf damage that is a common problem with hinged or surface sliding doors. With the door removed from the traffic area, Hi-Impact Jambs and 26mm thick linings, damage in and around the door way is significantly reduced.

Buildings subject to this type of damage/abuse are generally those places using trolleys, beds, wheel chairs, etc. For example, hospitals, airports, acute mental health facilities, supermarkets, shopping centres, warehouses and factories.
