4.1 Pre-Installation Checklist
- Ensure the rough opening dimensions are 48" wide and 80" high.
- Verify all package contents are present and undamaged.
- Gather necessary tools: drill, screwdriver, measuring tape, level, pencil.
- Due to the door's weight (approximately 55 pounds), it is recommended to have assistance during installation.
4.2 Step-by-Step Installation
- Install the Top Track: Position the top track within the rough opening. Ensure it is level and securely fasten it to the header using the provided screws and anchors.
- Attach Rollers to Doors: Secure the roller assemblies to the top edge of each door panel. Ensure they are firmly attached and aligned.
- Hang the Doors: Carefully lift each door panel and engage the rollers with the top track. Slide the doors to test their movement.
- Install Floor Guides: Position the floor guides at the bottom of the door opening to prevent the doors from swinging. Secure them to the floor according to the instructions. The no-bottom-track design keeps the floor clear.

5. Operating Instructions
To operate your bypass sliding closet doors, gently push or pull the door panels along the top track. The doors are designed to slide smoothly past each other, allowing access to either side of your closet opening. Avoid forcing the doors, as this can cause misalignment or damage to the rollers and track.
The doors can be used in various settings, including closets, laundry rooms, bedrooms, and storage areas.

6. Maintenance and Care
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and smooth operation of your JUBEST sliding closet doors.
- Cleaning: The vinyl-wrapped MDF surface is easy to clean. Use a soft, damp cloth with mild soap and water to wipe down the door panels. Avoid abrasive cleaners or harsh chemicals that could damage the finish.
- Track and Rollers: Periodically inspect the top track and rollers for any dust, debris, or obstructions. Clean the track with a vacuum or a damp cloth to ensure smooth gliding.
- Hardware Check: Every few months, check all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Re-tighten if necessary to maintain stability.
- Scratch Resistance: While the PVC surface offers scratch resistance, avoid sharp objects or excessive force that could cause damage.
7. Troubleshooting
If you encounter any issues with your sliding closet doors, refer to the following common troubleshooting tips:
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| Doors do not slide smoothly | Debris in track, loose rollers, misaligned track | Clean the top track. Check and tighten roller attachments. Verify the track is level and properly installed. |
| Doors rub against each other or frame | Misaligned doors, incorrect installation of floor guides | Adjust door alignment on the rollers. Ensure floor guides are correctly positioned and secured. |
| Doors are noisy during operation | Dry rollers, debris in track | Clean the track. Apply a silicone-based lubricant to the rollers if necessary (avoid oil-based lubricants). |
| Door panels appear warped | Extreme temperature/humidity changes, manufacturing defect | Ensure the installation environment has stable temperature and humidity. If warping persists and is significant, contact customer support. |
