Setup and Installation
This barn door system is designed for straightforward installation. Please note that a header board is not included and may be required for secure mounting, especially if studs do not align with track mounting points. The slab door requires drilling for hardware attachment.
- Prepare the Opening: Ensure the door opening is clear and the wall above is structurally sound. Install a header board if necessary.
- Mount the Track: Mark the desired height for the track. Securely attach the track to the wall or header board using the provided hardware. Ensure the track is level.
- Install Door Hangers: Attach the hangers to the top edge of the door panel. The door slab requires drilling for these attachments.
- Hang the Door: Carefully lift the door and hook the hanger rollers onto the track.
- Install Floor Guide: Position the floor guide at the bottom of the door opening to prevent the door from swinging out. Secure it to the floor.
- Adjust Stoppers and Anti-Jump Pads: Install the track stoppers at the ends of the track to limit door travel. Attach anti-jump pads to the top of the door to prevent it from lifting off the track.
- Final Checks: Test the door's movement to ensure it glides smoothly and operates correctly.
