ABSTRACT:
A horizontally sliding door section with a floor-engaging wheel driven from a motor. The wheel and its drive are located within the front-to-back extent of the door section in a housing hinged at one end on the bottom of the frame of the door section. A lead screw operated by a manual crank can be used to pivot the housing up about its hinge to raise the wheel from engagement with the floor of the building. The housing for the wheel has a removable front wall which carries the front bearing for the axle of the wheel, so that removal of this front wall disengages this bearing from the wheel axle.
