4. Setup and Installation
This section outlines the steps for installing your Wiltec Sliding Door System. Professional installation is recommended if you are unfamiliar with construction or carpentry.
- Prepare the Wall: Ensure the wall where the rail will be mounted is structurally sound and capable of supporting the combined weight of the door and the system. Locate wall studs or use appropriate heavy-duty anchors.
- Mark Rail Position: Determine the desired height for your door. The rail should be mounted at a height that allows the door to clear the floor by approximately 10-15 mm, considering the height of the rollers. Mark the drilling points for the wall brackets along the 183 cm rail.
- Install Wall Brackets and Rail: Drill pilot holes at the marked positions. Secure the wall brackets to the wall using the provided screws and anchors. Attach the 183 cm sliding rail to the wall brackets, ensuring it is level.
- Attach Rollers to Door: Mount the two rollers to the top edge of your door. Ensure they are evenly spaced and securely fastened. The door should be between 35 mm and 40 mm thick.
- Hang the Door: Carefully lift the door and hook the rollers onto the sliding rail.
- Install End Stops: Position the end stops at both ends of the rail to prevent the door from sliding off. Adjust their position to control the door's travel range.
- Install Anti-Lift Devices: Attach the anti-lift devices to the top of the door, above the rollers. These prevent the door from accidentally lifting off the rail.
- Install Floor Guide: Position the floor guide on the floor directly below the rail, ensuring it aligns with the groove or channel on the bottom edge of your door. Secure it to the floor. This guide prevents the door from swinging outwards.

5. Operating Instructions
The Wiltec Sliding Door System is designed for smooth and quiet operation. To open or close the door, simply grasp the door handle (if installed) and gently slide the door along the rail. The rollers will glide smoothly, and the floor guide will keep the door stable. Avoid forcing the door, as this can cause unnecessary wear on the components.
6. Maintenance
Regular maintenance ensures the longevity and smooth operation of your sliding door system.
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe down the rail and rollers with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Lubrication: If the door's movement becomes stiff or noisy, apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to the roller bearings and the top surface of the rail. Do not use oil-based lubricants, as they can attract dust.
- Check Fasteners: Annually inspect all screws and bolts for tightness. Tighten any loose fasteners to ensure the system remains secure.
- Inspect Components: Check rollers, end stops, and the floor guide for any signs of wear or damage. Replace any worn or damaged parts immediately.
7. Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Door is difficult to slide | Dust/debris on rail, lack of lubrication, misaligned rail | Clean the rail, lubricate rollers/rail, check rail for levelness and alignment. |
| Door makes noise when sliding | Lack of lubrication, worn rollers, loose fasteners | Lubricate rollers/rail, inspect rollers for wear and replace if necessary, tighten all fasteners. |
