Setup and Installation
Follow these steps carefully for a successful installation.
1. Prepare the Door Panels
- Ensure your door panels are within the specified thickness (1 3/8" or 1 3/4") and weight limits (150 lbs per door).
- Measure and mark the positions for the door hangers on the top edge of each door panel. Refer to the detailed instructions provided in the printed manual for precise measurements.
2. Install the Track
- Determine the desired height for your track. The track should be mounted securely to a sturdy header or wall studs above the door opening.
- Mark the drilling points for the track mounting screws. Use a level to ensure the track is perfectly horizontal.
- Drill pilot holes and attach the track to the wall using the provided mounting screws. Ensure the track is firmly secured.
3. Attach Door Hangers and Soft Close Mechanisms

- Attach the door hangers to the top edge of each door panel using the provided screws. Ensure they are aligned correctly.
- Integrate the soft close mechanisms with the hangers as per the detailed diagrams in the printed manual. These mechanisms prevent the door from hitting the door jamb and ensure smooth stopping.
4. Install Doors onto the Track
- Carefully lift each door panel and hook the hanger wheels onto the track.
- Engage the quick-release locking tabs to secure the doors on the track.
5. Install Floor Guides, Door Stops, and Finger Pulls

- Install the door stops at the desired positions along the track to limit door travel.
- Attach the finger pulls to the door panels for easy opening and closing.
Operating Instructions
The JUBEST Bypass Door Hardware is designed for smooth and quiet operation. To operate your bypass doors:
- Grasp the finger pull on the door panel you wish to move.
- Gently slide the door along the track. The three-wheel ball bearing hangers ensure minimal friction and quiet movement.
- The soft-close mechanism will engage as the door approaches its open or closed position, bringing it to a gentle stop.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and optimal performance of your bypass door hardware.
- Cleaning: Periodically wipe down the track and rollers with a soft, damp cloth to remove dust and debris. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
- Lubrication: The ball bearings are designed for long-term smooth operation. If any squeaking or stiffness occurs, a small amount of silicone-based lubricant can be applied to the roller axles.
- Hardware Check: Annually inspect all mounting screws and hardware for tightness. Tighten any loose fasteners to prevent issues.
- Soft Close Mechanism: Ensure the soft close mechanisms are free of obstructions and engaging correctly.
