Sliding door rollers are typically located at the bottom of the door panel. These rollers allow the door to glide along the track, making it easy to open and close. Over time, dust and debris can accumulate in the track, or the rollers themselves may become worn, resulting in a door that sticks or will not slide properly.
It is quite popular and can be used with self-tapping screws or merely threaded to take a machine screw.


Columns are the round or square pillars, posts or poles that flank an entranceway, and a cover flange or escutcheon is a piece of metal that is used for decoration or protection. These are typically found around the base of a post or at a point where the rail ends against a solid wall.
The decorative pieces that sit atop a post on a wrought iron fence in order to cover it are called post caps. These keep debris and water from building up inside the post, and they come in a range of designs from ball style caps to less ornate ‘flat’ or ‘standard’ post caps.
Moreover, the material features definitive cross-sections allowing an easier machining process, which increases flexibility.


Of course, having decided to build with an aluminium frame profile you will have to decide what shape you want. As previously mentioned, this is the strongest material but it is also one that are not as widely available as some of the other materials. Therefore, you may find that it will be more cost effective for you to build with some form of shed roof. However, before you do this you should think about whether you actually want this feature or not.
