Rated 5 out of 5 by from Spankin track Brilliant, easy to fit, glides well and good value for money

Rated 3 out of 5 by from Not trade rated The quality of the gear is quite good but installation and instructions are not up to trade requirements. I spent around an hour and a half drilling and chamfering 6 meters of tracks. Complete waste of my time. Door and rail must be fitted simultaneously. Really? Yes, and the manual proudly confirms this. Finally, tracks are suitable for various door thicknesses and can be placed next to one another without a gap. The manual is vague on what spacing if any is needed for the most widely used door thickness of 18mm. Annoying, actually doors are now scratching the new paintwork so need to go back and fix.

Rated 4 out of 5 by from Good action door gear The installed product works very smoothly, but I would not describe installation as easy for three reasons: 1. The height of the opening must be 8mm higher than the door height, so its likely the opening will need precisely adjusting. 2. Adjusting the wheels needs them to be on the runners to be sure they are adjusted correctly - which needs a couple of runner off cuts for this purpose because it is too difficult to keep positioning the doors on the full length runners (see 3). 3. The doors have to be put into place at the same time as sliding in the bottom runners with the wheels resting on them - this requires two people.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Gear Excellent piece of kit, really impressed with them, very smooth and quiet, and a doddle to fit, more than well worth the cost,

my wardrobe opening height is 1960 mm, what height do my doors need to be to allow for the track to be fitted?

Asked by: DeanWill
Hui, many thanks for the question. Ideally the doors should be 8mm smaller than the opening height so for your job 1952mm. Many thanks.

What door park is needed to add a 3rd door?

”Door gear pack allowing 3 doors to be fitted sold separately.“ What part number is this please? I’ve got a 1200mm wide recess I would like to have covered with sliding doors, and to have 3 doors would make it more practical for me.

Hi, the extra fittings pack is 44346. many thanks

Maximum Height 926mm?

Is the max height a mistake - image shows standard height doors? SD/AR212 system allows for a standard 2040mm high door but only 1200mm opening width. If I require 2040mm height and 1800mm width do I need to buy 2 x SD/AR212?
Asked by: PeedieBreeks
Hi Many thanks for the question. The ARES range doesnt have a maximum door height as it is sat on rollers on the bottom and a guide at the top. I have requested information to be updated. Please see product link to correct data. https://www.rothley.com/shop/sliding-door-systems/wardrobe-door-systems/ares2-kit-for-2-or-3-doors/

Can you mount the bottom track on top of carpet ?

Asked by: IWAV
I had this same problem!! and I wanted the Rothley Ares2 door track because of its thin profile and top and bottom tracks, I overcome this problem by neatly cutting out the carpet along the length of the wardrobe track area and inserting a length of 20mm deep x 100mm wide wood to the existing floor to mount the bottom track onto, I then added a length of aluminium angle to the outer edge of the wood for neatness.

I’m going to use 18mm mdf for doors, if I screw on a 4mm mirror on the face of them will the doors still slide past each other?

Asked by: Battlefield
Hi, yes this will be fine. The top and bottom track come in 2 separate parts and can fit any width above 16mm. many thanks
