The Johnson Hardware 1166 Series represents a sliding bypass door hardware system designed for residential and light commercial applications. The system allows for multiple doors to slide past each other, offering a space-saving solution for doorways. Documentation indicates the availability of hardware sets configured for two-door applications. Track lengths are selected to accommodate specific door widths, and the track can be modified to fit narrower doors by cutting it down from a longer hardware set. Installation instructions and quick reference drawings are available for the 1166 series. Additional Johnson Hardware documentation references installation procedures for other series, including the 100MD, 100SD, 111SD, 1500, 1560, 1700, 1836, and 2200F series, though details specific to these series are not fully elaborated within the provided materials.
1166 Series Hardware Sets
The 1166 Series hardware is sold in sets designed to accommodate a specific number of doors and corresponding door widths. The documentation specifically details hardware sets for two-door configurations. When selecting a hardware set, users should match the number of doors intended to slide with the appropriate set. The track length within the set must also be sufficient to accommodate the total width of the doors.
If a precisely matching hardware set is unavailable, the documentation suggests purchasing a longer track length and cutting it down to the required size. This allows for flexibility in accommodating non-standard door widths.
Specifications for Two-Door Configurations
For two-door configurations, the 1166 Series hardware sets are available with the following specifications:
- Opening Width: 24" X 2 (2' - 0" X 2) [610mm X 2]
- Opening Height: 47" (3' - 11") [1194mm]
These dimensions refer to the overall opening size the hardware is designed to support. It is important to note that these are specific to the two-door configuration detailed in the provided documentation. Specifications for other door counts are not included.
