About SlideDrive™

Unlike large commercial automatic sliding systems, SlideDrive™ uses a compact powered drive configuration designed specifically for sliding barn doors.

The system may use either a powered friction wheel or upgraded rack-and-pinion configuration depending on door size, weight, and application requirements.

Many customers searching for a retrofit barn door automation are looking for ways to modernize existing sliding doors while preserving the overall appearance of the space.
