Salice's Exedra2 double pocket door system: an innovative and high-performance solution

Highly innovative and high-performance, Salice's Exedra2 is a system for concealed doors which, thanks to a special opening solution, allows two doors to be operated simultaneously. An evolution of the Exedra system, it is a patented mechanism equipped with assisted entry and exit controlled by a magnetic device that guarantees smooth and fluid movement.

A flexible system

The system is available in two versions: Exedra2 Star, which allows the technical compartment to be concealed with a closing strip applied to the front of the mechanism, and Exedra2 Smart, a version with visible doors, which therefore requires a shallower compartment.

The three opening options -traditional, Push for handle-free furniture, or fully motorized- make Exedra2 the ideal system for every need. The absence of a lower front track allows it to adapt to any application, optimizing space in walk-in closets, kitchen cabinets, and home office solutions.

Salice Exedra2 Smart System

An extremely flexible system, Exedra2 can be applied to a wide range of doors with heights from 1800 mm to 2700 mm, widths from 350 mm to 757 mm in the Star version and from 525 mm to 860 mm in the Smart version.

 

Smooth, silent, and durable movement

With no cables, tie rods, or springs, the new Exedra2 technology uses gravity and controls the doors via magnetic slides, offering smooth, silent, and durable movement, tested up to 50,000 cycles.

Thanks to its unique opening mechanism, the handle can be applied to the ends of the side, allowing for one-handed opening and closing. With the help of the electric Push kit, both versions can also be used on structures without handles.
The motorized version of Exedra2 won the interzum award 2025 Best of the Best.

The system is also compatible with Exedra Gravity and can be designed directly using the online configurator, which allows you to customize it independently, adapting it perfectly to tailor-made projects, optimizing time and precision.
