FAQ: TAMdoûr Tambour Sliding Doors

1. Why do TAMdoûr Tambour doors cost more than standard kit-sized doors on the market?

• Premium Materials: Unlike most kits made from low-cost PVC plastic, TAMdoûr uses durable ABS plastic for both the tambour slats and tracks.
• Durability & Performance: ABS ensures a smooth slide with minimal friction, even under temperature fluctuations, unlike PVC, which expands in heat and contracts in cold, causing issues like sticking, tilting, or rattling.
• Environmental Stability: ABS holds its shape year-round, ensuring reliable operation in campervans, RVs, and motorhomes.

2. What makes the TAMdoûr handle superior?

• Robust Design: TAMdoûr handles feature a fully backed aluminium slat for added strength and stability, even for doors up to 1000mm wide.
• Secure Attachment: The handle is integrated into the ABS cover plate with three small holes and 3M double-sided tape, ensuring it stays in place and maintains structural integrity, even under accidental impacts.

3. What makes your track system different?

• High-Quality Tracks: Made from ABS plastic with a low-friction ridge for smooth sliding. Unlike PVC tracks, they don’t squeak or hinder movement.
• Customisable Configuration: Tracks come in straight lengths (double the door width) with 90-degree turns, allowing you to cut and customise them for your specific installation—whether straight or angled.
• Seamless Fit: Avoids the bumpy and inefficient sliding surfaces common with fixed-section kit tracks.

4. How are your slats connected?

• Longevity & Durability: Our slats use a male-to-female connector system with a ¾ wrap-around design, eliminating the need for rubber connectors that can perish over time.
• Watertight Seal: This robust connection prevents leaks and ensures long-lasting resilience in all conditions.

5. What sizes do you offer?

• Custom Sizing: Every door is made to order, down to the exact millimetre, avoiding the risk of miscuts. Perfect for custom spaces like campervans, which often require unique dimensions (e.g., 1700-1800mm height).
• Handle Customisation: Choose a handle colour to match your aesthetic.
• Delivery Time: Standard delivery is 10-12 working days worldwide, with clear communication about lead times during checkout.
