NOTE:
Doors using Floor Mount Door Guides
will have a groove on the bottom edge.
Ensure this groove is on the bottom
when hanging the door.
1. Lay the door with the front facing up on a flat,
level surface.
2. Measure 2-3/4” from the edge of the door and
draw a line parallel to the door edge about 7-1/2
inches in length (Figure 1).
3. Measure 4-7/16” from the top of the door. Using a
pencil, mark the top hanger hole on the vertical
line (Figure 1).
4. Measure 7-15/16” from the top of the door. Mark
the bottom hanger hole on the vertical line
(Figure 1).
5. Repeat steps 2-4 for the opposite end of the
door. Set the hangers aside.

6. Drill two pilot holes all the way through the door for
each hanger using a drill with an 1/8” drill bit (Figure 2).
7. Turn the door over. Using a 1-1/8” Forstner bit*, drill a
1/2” deep hole into each pilot hole (Figure 3).
*A 1-1/8” Spade bit may be used in place of a Forstner bit.
8. Turn the door over,
returning it to the face-up
position. Drill all the way
through the pilot holes
using a drill with a 1/2”
drill bit (Figure 4).
9. Install the hangers to the front of the door using hex
nuts and washers (provided) (Figure 5).

1. To determine where the track should be installed,
first measure the height of the door, then add
2-3/4” to the door height. 1/2” will be for the
clearance between the bottom edge of the door
and the floor. 2-1/4” will be from the top edge of
the door to the center of the track (Figure 1).
2. Using a level and a pencil, make a line above
the doorway.
3. The interior angle of the bracket should be in
line with the edge of the door. This is individual
preference and will depend on how far beyond the
doorway the door will overlap. Draw a vertical line
where the door will hang in the closed position
(Figure 2).
4. Position an end bracket so the interior angle of the
bracket is in line with the vertical line and the line
above the door is centered in the top hole of the
bracket (Figure 2). Using a pencil, mark the position
of both top and bottom holes.
FIRST THINGS FIRST
Check to see if the floor below the track area is level. If the floor rises more than 1/2” the door may rub or
not slide open completely. If the floor is not level, measure from the highest point of the floor surface to the
recommended track placement and adjust track placement accordingly.
Ensure the track will be installed onto wall studs. If wall studs are not lining up with the installation a header will
be required to provide the necessary strength and stability for the track and door.

(provided) using a socket wrench with 9/16”
socket (Figure 4).
7. Measure and drill holes for center spacer
brackets along the line drawn above the
doorway (Figure 5).
NOTE:
Ensure all spacer brackets are located on
a wall stud. If studs don’t align with the
installation, a header will be required.

brackets (Figure 7).
10. Slide the remaining end bracket onto the end
of the track. Mark the holes for the end bracket
using a pencil (Figure 8). Set the bracket aside.
11 Drill out the marked holes using a drill with a
1/4” drill bit (Figure 9).
12. Install the end bracket using two lag screws
(provided) (Figure 10).

groove in the bottom of the door (Figure 14).
21. Place the anti-jump bracket on the door side,
moving the bracket up until it is between 1/8”
and 1/16” from the bottom edge of the rail.
Mark the placement with a pencil.
22. Install the bracket to the door edge with 2
phillips screws (provided) using a drill with a
phillips bit (Figure 16).
23. Repeat steps 21 and 22 for the opposite end
of the door.
18. Install the Door Guide using a 1” phillips screw
(provided) and a drill with a phillips bit.

the other side of the Door Guide is exposed.
20. Install the second 1” phillips screw (provided)
using a drill with a phillips bit (Figure 15).
