There's a bar hidden behind this bookcase. 🍸

For their Liverpool office refurbishment, law firm Brabners wanted something memorable: a bespoke bookcase, built by CPA Joinery, concealing a fully stocked bar behind it.

The challenge was the weight. Loaded with books and decorative pieces, the bookcase needed a system that could carry it smoothly, silently and reliably in a busy commercial setting.

The answer was the Tommaslide 300:
📚 300kg load capacity, easily carrying the fully loaded bookcase
🤫 Smooth, near silent operation for a quiet office environment
👀 Track recessed into the ceiling and a concealed bottom guide, so no visible hardware

When a system is properly designed, it maintains controlled and consistent movement even as weight is applied during everyday use.

This helps ensure stable operation, reduces variation in performance and supports long-term reliability.

It’s a key part of how a system performs in real-world applications.

For joiners, manufacturers and installers, consistency across projects is key.

A sliding door system should perform the same way from one installation to the next, without variation in how it runs or behaves.

This depends on how the system is designed, ensuring components work together reliably and predictably in different applications.

Runners systems are built to support consistent results, helping deliver the same level of performance across every project.
