In-floor, adjustable, multiple-configuration track assembly for sliding panels with built-in weep system
First Claim
1. A track assembly for sliding panels, comprising:
- a base having a track extending upward therefrom, wherein the track is configured to engage undercarriage wheels of at least one vertically-oriented panel and support motion of the panel along the track;
a conduit coupled to said base and configured to allow moisture that collects on the base to egress from the base;
a track support rail configured to be placed underneath the base; and
an alignment clamp configured to be coupled to a portion of the base and a portion of the track support rail, wherein the alignment clamp aligns and secures the base and the support rail in a substantially orthogonal direction with respect to one another.
