  • Corner connector for sliding doors
    Patent number: 4391019
    Abstract: Corner connectors for sliding doors which connect stiles and rails of the doors and carry upper and lower guide arms are improved by making the arms detachable. The arms are connected to the connector bodies by T-bars passing through T- or L-slots in the same so that the latter may be removed from the bodies at one end of their travel. The modified connectors are simpler to manufacture and reduce assembly and inventory problems.
