Guide Rollers and Roller Holders for Sliding Gates
Guide Rollers - Roller Holders covers the parts that guide and stabilise sliding gates. They include top guides, drive-on rollers with end caps, guide rollers on threaded spindles, running wheels and mounting brackets. The range is intended for installers of self-supporting, cantilever and rail-guided sliding gates.
What you will find in this category
- Top guide holders with rubber or plastic rollers, as fixed spacing (42, 60 or 80 mm) or adjustable, in galvanised steel.
- Drive-on and riding rollers with end caps for self-supporting gates, for rails from 60×60×3 mm to 140×140×6 mm.
- Guide rollers on threaded spindles, ø25-43 mm, in white plastic or rubber, with M10, M12 or M16 threads.
- Roller brackets and catch guide brackets in galvanised steel, 3-5 mm thick, with slotted holes for adjustment.
- V-groove, T-type and O-type running wheels, ø68-88 mm, for rail sliding gates, with load capacities of 150 kg or 250 kg.
How to choose
- Rail or profile: match the drive-on roller and end cap to the rail size, for example 70×70×4 mm or 80×80×5 mm.
- Rail type for running wheels: choose a V-groove, T-type or O-type wheel to suit the rail section, such as a T-beam or a round rail.
- Load capacity: running wheels are rated 150 kg (ø68-70 mm) or 250 kg (ø88 mm).
- Roller spacing: use a fixed holder where the gap is known. Choose an adjustable guide, for example 15-65 mm or 49-79 mm, where it varies.
- Thread and roller material: check the spindle thread (M10, M12 or M16). Choose rubber for quieter closing, or plastic for channel rail guidance.
Typical applications
Drive-on rollers sit at the start of the rail on self-supporting gates. As the gate closes, the roller enters the bracket on the post. This spreads the weight over more support points and relieves the carriages. Top holders with rubber rollers and a buffer keep the closed leaf steady and reduce noise on cantilever and rail-guided gates.
Frequently asked questions
What does a drive-on roller with end cap do?
It is fitted at the beginning of the rail of a self-supporting gate. It enters the bracket on closing, stabilises the leaf and relieves the gate carriages. The end cap also closes the rail end.
What load can the running wheels carry?
The V-groove, T-type and O-type wheels listed here are rated at 150 kg for ø68-70 mm and 250 kg for ø88 mm.
Why choose rubber rollers on a top holder?
Rubber rollers with a rubber buffer absorb vibration and protect the gate surface. They also avoid a metallic clang when the gate closes.
