6. Operating Instructions
Your WIN STELLAR pocket door is designed for smooth and quiet operation. The integrated soft-close system prevents slamming and ensures a gentle stop.
- Opening the Door: Gently pull the door panel from its recessed position within the wall cavity until it is fully extended.
- Closing the Door: Gently push the door panel towards the wall cavity. The soft-close mechanism will engage automatically, slowing the door's movement for a quiet and controlled closure.

- Door not sliding smoothly: Check the track for debris or obstructions. Ensure the hangers are properly seated and the track is level. Lubricate the track with a silicone spray if necessary.
- Soft-close not engaging or working improperly: Verify that the soft-close mechanism is correctly installed and aligned with the door's travel path. Ensure no obstructions are preventing the mechanism from engaging.
- Door rubbing against frame: Check the door's alignment and adjust the hangers or door guides as needed. Ensure the rough opening dimensions were correct during installation.
- Excessive noise during operation: Inspect the track and hangers for wear. Ensure all components are securely fastened. Lubrication may resolve minor noises.
