Claim 10:
11. A vertically stacking door system, comprising:
a vertically stacking door;
a first vertical door guide; and
a second vertical door guide, wherein the first vertical door guide and the second vertical door guide each comprise:
a vertical track;
a first curved track portion;
a second curved track portion;
a first horizontal track portion coupled to the first curved track portion;
a second horizontal track portion coupled to the second curved track portion; and
a ramp coupled to the vertical track, wherein the ramp comprises an inclined surface to interact with a cam lever of an end cap of a first panel of a plurality of panels of the vertically stacking door to cause an adjacent second panel of the plurality of panels of the vertically stacking door to separate from the first panel, wherein the ramp engages a second cam wheel of the cam lever to pivot the cam lever relative to the first panel which causes a first cam wheel of the cam lever to apply a force against a cam surface of the adjacent second panel to cause the adjacent second panel to separate from the first panel as the vertically stacking door is being raised.
