IMPORTANT

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Proper installation

requires 2 people

When installing directly into

a non-concrete wall. Do not

attempt to install the track

solely to the drywall or any

wall surface as this may not

support the weight of the

track and mounted door.

The track must be installed

onto a piece of solid wood

blocking (sold separately)

using mounting screws

(also sold separately).

Ensure the solid wood

blocking is secured into

the structural surface.

Use a stud finder where

necessary to locate studs

and secure safely.

Typical solid wood blocking

should be the length of the

track x 5-1/2" (H) x 7/8" (D).

If installing with the internal

floor-mounted door guide,

the door must be mortised

1/4" (W) x 3/4" (D) centrally.

An optional wall mounted

door guide and optional

floor mounted door guides

have also been provided

for non-mortised

door installation.
