Step 1: Prepare the Wall and Mount the Track
- Measure and mark the desired height for the track. Ensure the track is level.
- Locate wall studs and mark drilling points. If studs do not align with desired track placement, consider installing a header board (wood blocking) for secure mounting.
- Drill pilot holes at the marked locations.
- Attach the sliding track to the wall using the provided fasteners. Ensure it is securely fastened and level.
Step 2: Assemble the Door Panel
- Lay the door panel pieces on a clean, flat surface.
- Follow the specific assembly instructions provided in the detailed manual (not included here, but typically with the product) to connect the individual sections of the wave shape door panel.
- Ensure all connections are tight and the panel is stable.
Step 3: Attach Rollers and Handle to the Door
- Attach the barn door rollers/hangers to the top edge of the assembled door panel using the designated screws. Ensure they are aligned and securely fastened.
- Install the door handle on the desired side of the door panel.
Step 4: Hang the Door and Install Floor Guides
- With assistance, carefully lift the door panel and hook the rollers onto the sliding track.
- Slide the door back and forth to ensure smooth movement.
- Install the chosen floor guide (two types are available) at the bottom of the door opening to prevent the door from swinging out. Adjust for proper clearance and smooth operation.
- Install anti-jump pads on top of the door to prevent it from lifting off the track.
5. Operating Instructions
Your JUBEST sliding barn door is designed for smooth and quiet operation.
- To open or close the door, grasp the handle firmly and slide the door along the track.
- Avoid forcing the door if it encounters resistance. Check for obstructions or misalignments.
- The door is equipped with stoppers on the track to prevent it from sliding too far.
6. Maintenance and Care
Regular maintenance will ensure the longevity and smooth operation of your barn door.
- Cleaning: The PVC covered surface is waterproof and easy to clean. Wipe the door panel with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the finish.
- Hardware Check: Periodically inspect all screws and fasteners on the track, rollers, and handle to ensure they are tight. Tighten any loose components.
- Track and Rollers: Keep the sliding track free of dust and debris. If the door does not slide smoothly, clean the track and apply a silicone-based lubricant to the rollers if necessary.
- Floor Guide: Ensure the floor guide remains securely fastened and free of obstructions.
