Hanging sliding closet door(s) help?
I recently removed the sliding closet doors in all the bedrooms of a
house I'm repainting. Because the doors were painted as well I removed the hanging rollers from the top of each door. Now I can't seem to get the doors installed correctly and/or working so I thought I'd ask for a refresher here? The rollers come in two depts (we'll call them shallow and deep). Which doors (front/rear) do the deep ones install on? Also, how does one get the doors with the rollers mounted on them to insert properly in the metal overhead track? No matter what I do I cannot seem to get this in. So, if anyone has done this successfully in the past I'd sure like to be educated on this task. Thanks in advance. |

Generally, you TILT the door toward you... remove the floor guide.
Then swing door down, adjust for "level," and put in floor guide. /paul W3FIS |

Find another house that has similar doors and take some pictures with your celphone camera. |
