National Mfg N344-846 Sliding Door Gate Guide Tan Nylon

Product Description

The NATIONAL MFG/SPECTRUM BRANDS HHI N344-846 is an adjustable sliding door gate guide designed to keep bypass-style sliding doors properly aligned during operation. Made from nylon and finished in tan, this guide accommodates door panel thicknesses from 0.75 inches to 1.375 inches, making it suitable for a range of standard bypass door configurations. The kit includes screws for mounting and requires a cardboard shim to achieve proper spacing between the two side sections. Installation is straightforward and suited for finish carpenters, general contractors, or experienced DIYers working on interior door systems.

This gate guide is used in residential applications where sliding or bypass doors need consistent track alignment. It is designed as a floor-mounted or surface-mounted guide that prevents lateral movement of the door panel at the bottom. Typical installations include closet bypass doors, pantry doors, and interior sliding door systems. The tan color finish blends with common wood and painted door trim in residential interiors. Each package contains 5 units, making it practical for multi-door projects or service stock.
