A sliding door system is disclosed which includes an adjustable breakout device that is configured to change the suspension angle of one or more door panels of the sliding door system. The adjustable breakout device may include a support bar configured to extend vertically along the door panel, a housing configured to be mounted on an upper portion of the support bar, a bracket configured to be mounted on the upper portion of the support bar and within a portion of the housing, a set screw configured to pass through the housing and through the upper portion of the support bar, and a pivot configured to pass through the bracket. The set screw may be adjusted to cause the support bar to rotate about the pivot and therefore change the suspension angle of the one or more door panels.
