Sliding closet doors are loose and swing in and out.
How to do sliding closet doors.
Most sliding closet doors only have brackets at the top.
Hold the door so the top is tilted backward.
Insert the wheels on the top of the first door into the top track.
Unscrew the brackets on the top of your doors to loosen them.
The runner is what the wheels roll along so the door can slide back and forth.
The first thing to check is what type of rail system your sliding closet door uses in order for it to slide.
If your doors hang from a top rail and do not have a track on the floor then you need to either replace or tighten down the floor guides.
To take the door out you ll lift it out from the bottom track.
To make space to maneuver it you will loosen the brackets on the back.
The bottom is usually just a wheel that follows along a track.
See if the screws holding the guides down need tightening to be more secure.
Unfortunately sliding doors tend to use plastic rollers which bend and break easily.
If you don t have an existing soffit in your room on which to hang your doors you can build one by connecting two 2x6s to your desired length.
They don t require the clearance to open that traditional doors do.
Sliding mirror doors are extremely popular options for bedroom closets.
