Setup and Installation
This section outlines the steps for installing your SOLRIG sliding closet door. It is recommended to have two people for certain steps due to the size and weight of the door panels.
1. Prepare the Opening
- Measure the width and height of your door opening. This door system is suitable for 48" x 80" door openings.
- Ensure the opening is plumb, level, and square.
- Clear any debris or existing hardware from the opening.

2. Install the Top Track
- Position the top track within the door opening header.
- Mark the drilling locations for the mounting screws.
- Drill pilot holes and secure the top track using the provided screws. Ensure the track is level.
- Attach the 4 top connectors to the top track system.
3. Attach Rollers to Door Panels
- Carefully lay each door panel on a clean, protected surface.
- Attach the sliding door rollers to the top edge of each door panel according to the manufacturer's instructions. Ensure they are securely fastened.
4. Hang the Door Panels
- With assistance, lift the first door panel and engage the rollers into the top track.
- Repeat for the second door panel.
- Ensure both doors slide smoothly along the track.
5. Install Floor Guides
- Position the floor guides on the floor directly beneath the door panels.
- Adjust the guides to ensure the doors are properly aligned and do not swing.
- Mark the drilling locations, drill pilot holes, and secure the floor guides.
Operation
Your SOLRIG sliding closet doors are designed for smooth and quiet operation. To open or close the doors, gently push or pull the door panel along its track. Avoid forcing the doors, as this can cause damage to the rollers or track.

Maintenance
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and smooth operation of your sliding closet doors.
- Cleaning the Mirrors: Use a soft, lint-free cloth and a non-abrasive glass cleaner. Spray the cleaner onto the cloth, not directly onto the mirror, to prevent liquid from seeping into the edges.
- Cleaning the Tracks: Periodically vacuum or wipe down the top and bottom tracks to remove dust, dirt, and debris that can impede smooth sliding.
- Lubrication: If the doors begin to stick or make noise, apply a silicone-based lubricant (do not use oil-based lubricants) to the rollers and tracks.
- Hardware Check: Annually inspect all screws and fasteners to ensure they are tight. Tighten any loose hardware.
