This is important to enable us to quote for the correct size of PVC and track system. Generally where there is going to be heavy fork lift usage we would recommend 300 x 5 Ribbed, 400 x 4 or 400 x 6 Ribbed with a bolt on finish. Also where the opening is exposed to the elements, particularly in windy locations you should consider the thicker grades.
200 x 2 is ideal for small doors in particular where there is mainly pedestrian access.
300 x3 is great for doors up to about 3 meters high at 42% overlap. Above this, you should consider either increasing the overlap to 100% or going for the thicker grades of PVC.
Which is 100% for Bolt-on fixing and 80% for Hook-on
Or,
A minimum overlap
Which is 50% for Bolt-on fixing and 40% for Hook-on
