ABSTRACT:
Preassembled self-locking guide and pivot pin cartridge assemblies are installed on the job site in folding doors rather than on the factory assembly line. Considerable labor is saved in manufacturing and a better installation is achieved. Both the guide and pivot pin assemblies feature molded nylon housings which conveniently snap into place on the folding door brace structure. Top and bottom guide pin assemblies are identical and interchangeable. A lower adjustable pivot pin assembly possesses more than one and one-half inch of full threads on the molded nylon housing and includes a hardened steel lock clip having snap on engagement with the housing and threaded engagement with the adjustable screw-threaded pivot pin. A cooperating lock nut is provided to secure the assembly after proper adjustment. Both of the guide and pivot pin cartridge assemblies are insertable as units on the doors and can be removed if necessary.
