1. A hardware for a slidable facade component, the hardware comprising:
a guide pin arrangement for the slidable facade component, having at least two guide pins for a first side of the slidable facade component and at least two guide pins for a second side of the slidable facade component opposite the first side;
an actuating rod arrangement for transmitting an actuating force, comprising a first actuating rod for the first side of the slidable facade component and a second actuating rod for the second side of the slidable facade component;
an actuating device coupled to the actuating rod arrangement for transmitting the actuating force to the first and second actuating rods with one actuation;
wherein the guide pins are each formed as eccentric bearing pins with an eccentrically arranged axis of rotation for rotatable attachment to the slidable facade component and are provided for engagement with a guide groove arrangement arranged in the frame region, wherein each eccentric bearing pin is a round disc with the axis of rotation arranged eccentrically relative to the round disc, wherein each eccentric bearing pin is configured to be arranged between two sidewalls of a corresponding guide groove of the guide groove arrangement;
wherein the eccentric bearing pins are each coupled to one of the drive rods via a coupling element and are rotatable via a longitudinal movement of the drive rods, wherein the coupling element has a slot configured for engagement with a corresponding pin attached to corresponding one of the drive rods, wherein the slot is defined by first and second operational edge sections parallel to one another and is configured to receive the corresponding pin between the first and second operational edge sections;
wherein the guide pin arrangement is configured to move the slidable facade component transversely to the guide direction by the eccentric bearing pins supported in the guide groove arrangement, in order to cause the slidable facade component to be pressed against a fixed frame region transversely to the guide direction, and
wherein, in an operational state, the eccentric bearing pins are configured to urge against a corresponding surface, thereby pushing the slidable façade component away from the corresponding surface.
