How Centennial can help
Start with the complete system and the old part
Channel and support hardware are part of the enclosure design, not universal trim. The glass thickness, panel size, mounting surface, finish and original fabrication must all be confirmed.
Important: Fixed-panel support is part of the complete enclosure. Do not replace channel or support hardware based on appearance alone.

Frequently asked questions
U-channel and support bars identification
What information helps Centennial identify u-channel and support bars?
Send photographs of the complete assembly and the component from several angles, then include manufacturer markings and the measurements listed on this page. Mounting preparation, handing and dimensions may determine compatibility.
Can this hardware be replaced by appearance alone?
Usually not. Similar-looking components can differ in dimensions, load rating, handing, preparation and compatibility. Centennial reviews the complete opening before recommending a match or substitution.
Can Centennial install or repair this hardware?
Service depends on the hardware and the condition of the complete assembly. Send project photos or arrange an assessment so the team can determine the appropriate parts and repair approach.
