Attaching the Door

To attach the door to the track:


1.  Lift the door and place the track into the hanger wheel’s grooves.

Door Guide Installation

This section provides installation instruction for the following door guides: T-Guide, C-Guide (optional), Wall Mounted Stay Roller (optional), Industrial Floor Mounted Stay Roller (Optional)

 

How to install a T-Guide, C-Guide, or Wall Mounted Stay Roller:

 

1.  Plumb and block the door, so it is square to the floor.

 

2. Determine how wide the door overlap is (minimum 1”). Note: The door overlap is the distance between the leading edge of          the door when fully open and the trailing edge of the door when fully closed.

 

3. Mark the centerline of the overlap.

 

4. Place the guide and slide it to the centerline of the overlap and mark the base’s edges.

 

5. Remove the door from the track.

 

6. Re-align the guide to the base markings. Pre-drill and install the guide.

 

7. Put the door back on the track and slide it to test. If necessary, adjust the guide so it is square to the door.
