The new GEZE Levolan 60 sliding door system

Sophisticated aesthetics with a small space requirement

With the compact Levolan 60 modular sliding door system, GEZE has created a new, elegant solution for designing manual sliding doors for interior use which are easy to use and glide effortlessly. Small fitting dimensions and the linear design with a slim, 50-millimetre-high runner track suit every installation situation. Levolan 60 is flexibly designed for installation on a wall, ceiling or a glass fanlight and additionally can be used with all the latest door leaf materials. The discreet fitting technology can be used for door leaf weights of up to 60 kg. Completely integrated in the runner track, it optimises the overall design. Developed as a flexible modular system, Levolan 60 enables the multiple use of individual system components and consequently a reduced number of individual parts.

The Levolan SoftStop draw-in damping, which can optionally be integrated in the runner track, provides safety and convenience. The sliding door leaves are guided gently and safely into the end position, with no more banging into the frame or buffer. It's almost impossible to trap your fingers. Special maintenance-free carrier rollers ensure outstanding load distribution and almost silent running. The frontally accessed integrated cam adjustment allows for the convenient and continuous balancing of construction tolerances, thus guaranteeing the exact leaf movement once installed. To ensure a reliable long service life, the carrier rollers have been TÜV-tested for 100,000 functional cycles according to DINEN1527. Removal protection is automatically activated upon height adjustment of the door leaf, thus providing additional safety.

Levolan Smart fix installation system – quick and easy installation of fittings

The installation of fittings is fast and straightforward from the front using only one installation tool. All the installation and adjustment tasks can be done using just one Allen key and one open-ended spanner. No leaf processing is necessary for installation of the draw-in damping either. Cover panels and end coverings are simply clipped in place and can thus be mounted easily without additional tools or screws.
