Explore Naming Conventions & Terminology
STANLEY Access Technologies uses a numbering system to describe our products. For example, a "5200" is an automatic slide door with panels that are telescoping and partially breakout because 5 represents telescoping and 2 represents partial breakout.
- "2" Partial Breakout - meaning only the sliding panel can be broken out (swings open) at any point of travel to create a larger opening for emergency egress. Example: Dura-Glide 2000 and Telescoping 5200. Click here to watch the video.
- "3" Full Breakout meaning all door panels (sliding and stationary) can be broken out (swing open) at any point of travel to create a larger opening for emergency egress. Example: Dura-Glide 3000 and Telescoping 5300. Click here to watch the video.
- "4" Manual swinging panels. Example Dura-Care 7400.
- "5" Telescoping panels. Example 5200.
- "6" Folding panels. Example Dura-Care 7600.
- "7" Manual sliding panels: Example: Dura-Care 7000, our Intensive Care Unit door.
- "TL-FBO" Trackless Full Breakout (usually on our manual sliding ICU doors). Example Dura-Care 7200 TL-FBO.
- "FBO" Full Breakout.
X Panel: Slide
S Panel: Swing
O Panel: Fixed
