Today HOMESUN SOFT CLOSE is going to give a brief introduction for how to apply the sliding wardrobe doors.

1, Remove the old doors. If you want to install completely new sliding doors, then start by removing the old doors and tracks. Lift up on the old doors until the rollers come off the track. Angle them toward you as you lower the top guide away from the top track.

2, Remove the old tracks. Unscrew the old tracks and pry them off if necessary. For wooden tracks coated with paint, use a utility knife at the edge of the track. This will stop the adjacent paint from potentially peeling up with the track.

3, Clean up the area. Remove any leftover debris. Precision measurements are essential for proper installation

4, Install a floor liner. If the closet space has carpeting or a rug that sits right next to the door, you should install a floor liner. These inexpensive liners fit beneath the bottom track. They keep carpeting or rugs from binding the door rollers.If you decide to install a floor liner beneath the bottom track, set it in place before you measure to ensure accurate measurements.

5, Measure the space for the doors. Before you even buy doors, measure the space because not all doors are created equal. Take a horizontal measurement from the edge of the left wall to the edge of the right wall. Take a vertical measurement from the floor (or liner) up to the top of the space. 

• Since the height from one end of the closet to the other can differ, take the height measurement at the middle and each end of the opening. Use the smallest of the measurements.

• Measure twice and write the measurements down to take with you.

• If the top of your closet space has a fascia (a decorative, overhanging accent piece), then make sure you take your measurement behind the fascia where you will install the track.

• If you have an existing track system that’s in good shape, be sure that it will work with the new doors.
