Default Murphy Bed - Sliding Wall

Had a client today that wants to put a Murphy Bed in her spare room.
He wants shelves on both sides w/ 2 Sliding Shelves that hide the bed when
its up.
Just like this :

Im curious on how the center Shelves slide open. Anyone have any
suggestions?
I have to figure each shelf would weigh about 100-150 when loaded. Also it
looks like it hangs from the top but not 100% sure.

This is the episode where they install that exact unit. There are pairs of
aluminum I-track at the top; iit sounded like there was just a single track on
the bottom. It is definitely supported high and low.
