Instrucciones de instalación

Proper installation is crucial for the safe and smooth operation of your barn door. It is recommended to have at least two people for installation.

1. Determine Track Placement and Clearances

• Measure your door opening width and height.
• Ensure you have adequate clearance above the door opening for the track and hangers (minimum ceiling clearance 90 inches).
• Verify sufficient wall space next to the opening for the door to slide open completely (minimum inside jam to wall clearance for a 36" door is 40 3/8 inches).
• Confirm minimum floor clearance (79 inches for an 84-inch door).

2. Mount the Track

1. Locate wall studs above your door opening. If studs do not align with track mounting points, a solid header board (at least 1x4 inch, not included) must be securely installed into studs first.
2. Mark the desired height for the track. The track should be mounted at a height that allows the door to clear the floor by approximately 1/2 inch.
3. Drill pilot holes for the track mounting screws.
4. Attach the track to the wall using the provided wall screws and spacers. Ensure the track is level and securely fastened.

3. Install Hangers on Door Panel

1. Attach the two hangers (bent straps) to the top edge of the assembled door panel using the strap bolts. Ensure they are evenly spaced and securely tightened.

4. Hang the Door

1. Carefully lift the door panel and hook the hanger wheels onto the track.
2. Slide the door back and forth gently to ensure smooth movement.

5. Install Door Stops and Floor Guide

1. Position the door stops at each end of the track to prevent the door from sliding off. Tighten them securely.
2. Place the floor guide on the floor directly below the door. Mark the mounting holes.
3. Drill pilot holes and secure the floor guide to the floor using the provided anchors and screws. The floor guide will keep the bottom of the door stable.

Instrucciones de funcionamiento

To open the barn door, gently slide it along the track until it reaches the desired open position, resting against the door stop. To close, slide the door back until it covers the opening. Avoid forcing the door or allowing it to slam against the stops.
