Bypass and Fixed Bypass System

The Bypass System allows a second door to be installed in front of the primary door, enabling the doors to slide past one another. This overlapping design provides flexible access, allowing you to open either half or the full width of the opening as required.

In comparison, a Fixed Bypass System is suited to larger openings where there is no space for a door to slide to the left or right. One door is fixed within a portion of the opening (typically half or one-third), while a single operating door slides to cover the remaining space. This configuration offers a more cost-effective alternative while still maintaining functionality and visual balance.
