To determine the quantity of materials needed for a sliding door installation, we must calculate the track length and frame material based on the door dimensions and overhang. Below is a numerical example and an interactive calculator to assist with these calculations.

Example Calculation

Assume the following dimensions:

• Door Width (W): 100 cm
• Door Height (H): 200 cm
• Overhang (each side): 5 cm

**Track Length Calculation**:

Track Length = Door Width + 2 × Overhang

Track Length = 100 cm + 2 × 5 cm = 110 cm

**Frame Material Calculation**:

Perimeter = 2 × (Door Width + Door Height)

Perimeter = 2 × (100 cm + 200 cm) = 600 cm
