What Cavity Sliders USA does

Cavity Sliders USA Inc. is a Carson, California-based manufacturer of pocket door and sliding door hardware, founded in 1990 as the US arm of a New Zealand-origin specialty building products business. The company designs and sells pre-engineered aluminum extrusion pocket door frames, sliding door track systems, and proprietary magnetic locking hardware under the CaviSlider, CaviTrack, CaviLock, and CaviAccessories brand families, plus automatic pocket door units (AutoCav / AutoCav Pro) designed in New Zealand. Its core technology centers on patented magnetic catch and mortise lock systems (CL400, CL500) and soft-close mechanisms (SofStop, SofStop HD), with products supporting doors up to 350 lbs and as narrow as 24 inches and backed by a 10-year warranty.

The company monetizes through one-time hardware sales distributed via an authorized dealer network of lumber yards, millwork suppliers, and building materials distributors across North America, complemented by direct specification support to architects and builders and a Carson, CA headquarters showroom. Pricing is quote-based through dealers and not publicly disclosed. Primary customer segments are residential builders, finish carpenters, and architects/designers; secondary segments include commercial, hospitality, retail (e.g., Nordstrom NYC), healthcare, and accessibility projects via the AutoCav line. The company also operates regional offices in Australia, Singapore, and New Zealand, and has expanded its premium hardware offering through a partnership with Halliday + Baillie.

Cavity Sliders USA is privately held and founder-owned, with no disclosed institutional investors, funding rounds, or public listing. The firm employs 11-50 people and pursues growth through product line extension (AutoCav, Jamb Kit, SofStop HD), trade show presence (NAHB IBS, JLC LIVE, DHI), digital tools (CaviSelect configurator), and selective premium partnerships rather than M&A or external capital.
