  • Publication number: 20240287848
    Abstract: A building wall module system has a frame structure that includes a wall side region, a wall shell region, a through-passage region between the wall side region and the wall shell region, and a guide track system that extends above the through-passage region. In an application in which a sliding door is inserted into the frame structure, the guide track system displaces the sliding door between a closed position, in which the sliding door closes the through-passage region, and an open position, in which the sliding door completely or partially frees the through-passage region. If a use with the sliding door is not required, a casing insert can be inserted into the through-passage region. The casing insert has connecting elements which, in the inserted state, connect it to the frame structure and which release it during removal from the frame structure.
