    Looking for recommendations lads,
    Will be building a stud partition wall hiding a pair of doors.

    Anybody have recomadations for a rail that I can still rely on in 15 years time because once it's plastered it's done.

    I imagine fully steel be better than part nylon runners, will be fully hung door, no rails or runners on ground.

    Try Proline Hardware in Inchicore for Henderson rails, or Hafele , anything they sell is good

    Hi OP,

    I'm fitting these all the time, currently doing 13 sliding doors in one house. Go with Henderson as a brand, they won't let you down. Also certain nylon parts like the rollers aren't necessarily a bad thing. Nylon rollers wont break and are much quieter. If this is a new spec house which tend to be very warm fit a track on the floor too, this can be very easily hidden in a door saddle and will save a lot of heart ache. Without a ground track the door can go into twist and not run smoothly.
