Size
Up to 8’0” x 10’0” door openings are molded as a solid, 4” thick panel. Larger sizes available as multi-panel doors. Custom sizes available – consult with factory.
Panel Structure
Fiberglass sliders are molded as two separate shells and bonded together for a seamless gel coat finish. Each shell is molded, starting with a 20-25 ml application of gel coat, then alternating layers of fiberglass, building to a thickness of 3/16”. HDPE backing is molded into the laminate structure, to provide adequate backing and screw retention for all finished hardware.
Closed Cell Foam
Door panels are placed in a heated press and injected with 2lb per cubic foot closed cell polyurethane foam. 2lb foam provides the maximum r-value for thermal performance (roughly R-7.5 per inch).
Custom Doors
Weiland has built countless custom doors for unique applications. If you have a design challenge where you’ll need a door, please contact Weiland to brainstorm ideas.
S/S Clad Casings (Frame)
26-ga stucco embossed stainless steel clad frames are standard for our fiberglass doors. White painted frames are optional, depending on the application. The core of our casings is made of HDPE plastic lumber. Jamb depths are built to virtually any size, accommodating any wall type or depth.
Self Regulating Heat
120 volt, 10-watt per foot self-regulating heater wire is utilized in perimeter of our doors for freezer applications.
Track and Hardware
Fiberglass doors feature a stainless steel track, brackets, trolleys, stay rollers, chain, sprockets, etc., for corrosive resistant construction built for wash-down applications.
Power Operator Option
½ Horse power, NEMA4X operators are standard for Weiland power sliding doors. Operators feature a marine grade aluminum housing and a wash-down rated control box. Weiland upgrades the operator motor to a stainless steel shaft and sprocket for maximum corrosion resistance. Various activation types are available, including pull cord stations, push button stations, motion activation, garage door style openers, or in-floor loop detectors.
