Compare Hawa Running Track - Extended Spacing of +9 mm Between Door and Wall - Aluminium Anodized - Predrilled
Hawa Porta Running Track, the gold standard for premium sliding door systems. Specifically engineered for wall-mounted applications, this anodized aluminium track features an extended spacing of +20 mm, providing the critical clearance needed for modern architectural details like thick baseboards, door frames, or decorative wall panels.
Hawa Porta Running Track (+20 mm)
The Hawa Porta system is synonymous with Swiss precision and durability. This pre-drilled running track is designed for wooden doors weighing up to 60 kg (132 lbs) or 100 kg (220 lbs), depending on the fitting set used. Its sleek, anodized finish ensures it remains a visually appealing part of your décor while offering a "whisper-quiet" glide that cheaper alternatives simply cannot match.
Key Features & Benefits
- Extended +20 mm Spacing: Perfect for bypassing skirting boards, light switches, or protruding door frames without needing additional wall spacers.
- Premium Anodized Aluminium: A high-quality finish that resists corrosion and wear, maintaining a smooth surface for the rollers for decades.
- Pre-Drilled for Precision: Simplifies the installation process. Factory-drilled holes ensure the track is perfectly level and securely fastened to the wall.
- Universal Compatibility: Works seamlessly with Hawa Porta 60 and 100 roller sets and is compatible with Hawa Soft Close technology for a gentle, luxury feel.
- Minimalist Aesthetic: The track’s slim profile disappears into the room's design, focusing attention on your beautiful sliding doors.
Hawa Porta vs. Standard Competitor Tracks

Why Hawa is better: Standard tracks often require "hacky" solutions like wooden blocks or shim stacks to clear baseboards, which look unsightly and compromise stability. The Hawa +20 mm track is an all-in-one engineered solution that looks professional and stays rigid under heavy loads.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Why do I need the +20 mm extended spacing?
Standard tracks sit close to the wall. If you have thick baseboards (skirting boards) or a door frame, the sliding door will hit them. The +20 mm track moves the entire door leaf further away from the wall, allowing it to clear these obstacles effortlessly.
2. Can I cut this track to a custom length?
Yes. While the track comes in standard lengths (e.g., 2500 mm), it is made of high-quality aluminium and can be easily cut down with a fine-toothed hacksaw or a miter saw with a non-ferrous blade.
3. Does this track work with glass doors?
This specific track is part of the Porta 60/100 family.8 While primarily used for wood, it can be used for glass doors if paired with the correct Hawa Porta 100 G clamping shoes and hardware.
4. Is the "Anodized" finish better than painted?
Absolutely. Anodizing is an electrochemical process that integrates the finish into the metal itself. It won't chip, peel, or flake like paint, and it provides a much lower friction surface for the rollers.
Pro Tip: For the ultimate luxury experience, pair this track with the Hawa Soft Close mechanism. It prevents the door from slamming and ensures it always rests in a perfectly closed or open position.
