    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sliding door arrangement with an attenuation and retraction device facilitating soft-closing of a sliding door. The arrangement includes an attenuation and retraction device, which may be placed in the extension of a rail guiding and retaining the door, and a pin that extends from the door and interacts with the attenuation and retraction device. The pin may optionally be locked in a retracted position during mounting of the door in order to protect the pin from damage resulting from excessive side forces.

  • Publication number: 20130167444
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a sliding door arrangement including a sliding door, a rail system, with a rail which guides a sliding motion of the door, and an attenuation and retraction device, which brakes the sliding motion of the door at a brake position in the vicinity of a door end position and retracts the door to the end position. The door has a wheel, which is arranged to run on the rail, a pin, slideably mounted on the door, which is arranged to interact with the attenuation and retraction device, and optionally a pin movement limiting device, which, at least in a mounting position, limits the movement of the pin such that it does not extend further from the door than does said wheel.
