Door Guide KIts and Fire Tabs


Door Guide Kits

Nylube's Door Guide Kits are the overwhelming choice of the elevator industry. Nearly every elevator entrance manufacturer chooses Nylube because we don't cut corners on quality. We could use the same number and kind of fasteners as some of our competitors, but that would sacrifice quality and strength. So we include 3 sets of gib mounting hardware instead of 2. And we use high strength barrel nuts to ensure metal to metal coverage with the screw instead of a hex nut.  Each kit includes 1 angle bracket, one gib, three sem screws, three barrel nuts, and three self-tapping screws to mount to the door.

Our standard DW kits for doors 1" thick or less, and the DL kits for doors 1" to 1 1/4" handle the vast majority of installations. But in case you encounter a job which requires something thicker, Nylube now has the capability to create a custom angle bracket to meet your needs at an affordable price.

Roller Door Guide Kits





Nylube's line of Roller Door Guide Kits are designed for those jobs where nylon gibs have trouble sliding in the sill due to heavy loading conditions (air pressure imbalance. The Roller Door Guide Kit rolls in contact with the sill, rather than sliding.

Fully adjustable with over 33 positions, and sizes to fit narrow and wide doors. They exceed ANSI and fire test requirements and feature synco-loc fastening and bend down tabs. They run dry, with no needle or ball bearings to clog or lubricate. They are dust dirt and corrosion resistant.

Roller Door Guide Kits are available with either 2 rollers (DWR & DLR) or the recommended 3 rollers (DWRH & DLRH).
