The Eclipse E4™ is a premier folding door system for larger folding doors. It has been designed for strength and is generously proportioned to meet the requirements of specifiers looking for folding solutions in medium to large residential and commercial applications. Stainless steel bearings in the pivots and carriers allow even the largest doors to be moved quietly and with fingertip ease between the open and closed positions.
Eclipse E4™ for folding doors is specified with 5 separate groups: track, sill, weathersealing, flushbolts and hardware. Components are required from all 5 groups to build bifolding doors.
Weather
This system is suitable for use in external building applications. It has been designed around the use of kerf inserted seals in the opening and between the doors.
Application
Folding doors are most commonly installed opening outwards. Eclipse E4™ provides the functionality of adjustable end pivots mounted in the tracks. These pivots allow adjustment horizontally by means of a stainless steel screw. Vertical levelling of the door panels is achieved at the top pivot and each carrier position with “Sure-Lock II™” adjusting system. Simple, one-handed setting of the height and a selflocking feature that prevents slippage from the adjusted position are the basis of this design.
