Sometimes a design is so simple that it’s almost perfect, and products are designed with the same basic concepts years and even decades later. The wheel comes to mind.
While there have been many different sizes and looks of a wheel throughout history, and even now there are thousands of wheel designs available for all tastes, the basic concept of the wheel has not changed in… well, we don’t really know how long.
Sliding Doors: More Important than the Wheel!
We are just joking.
We know that the invention of the wheel helped to propel society to unexplored places and eventually to racetracks. Although not as importantly, we believe nearly as importantly, sliding doors have helped to propel kids off the couch and into the back yard for nearly as long as chickens have had feathers. For years, this simple invention has stood the test of time as the rear entry door of choice for homes all around the world.
It seems like for the first every how many years of the sliding door’s existence, it consisted of universally two large panes of glass with a metal frame and a top and bottom sliding track. Indeed, that exact door is still very prominent.
And why shouldn’t it be? It has served the world admirably in its service since the beginning of its creation, and the single pane sliding door continues to serve with distinction, silently gliding open and closed thousands of times per day as the kids alternate between wanting the freedom of the outside and the artificially conditioned climate of the inside.
No worries, the sliding door, in its brilliant simplicity, glides open and shut for a lifetime without complaint.
