Moving smoothly over rails in the floor, Fleming’s doors are positively guided by top rollers that travel in overhead guides. Slide doors – either inside or outside mounted – stack when open in pockets, cantilevered guides or at the jambs. Special features such as personnel and truck doors, fuselage apertures, sash, glazing units, translucent panels, louvers, etc. can be provided.
The “Unit-Drive” motor operator coupled with the variable electric frequency drives provide for “Soft-Start” and “Soft-Stop”. Options are available on all Fleming door systems. Built into every unit is Fleming’s reputation for years of trouble-free service – no matter how large or how heavy the door!

Bottom Drives, Traction or Fixed Chain styles can be used with Unidirectional, Biparting, Bidirectional, and Full-Floating doors, mounted on leading leaves or jamb leaves, or fixed at the jambs of the opening.

For group operated doors, interleaf connection of the drive system to the idler leaves utilize the Linear or Wrap-Around able systems. For smaller door systems, the use of the pick-up,“Unit-Drive” is employed
