How to install
sliding wardrobe doors
A step by step guide to fitting your custom sliding wardrobe doors. The same steps apply whether you have two, three or four doors. Easy DIY installation takes from just 30 minutes for a straightforward opening, with more doors taking longer. For the best finish we recommend professional installation, especially on large, mirrored or multi-panel doors.
Before you start
Safety first
In your kit
Tools you'll need
Prepare the tracks
Pre-drill fixing holes along the top and bottom tracks, about 100 mm in from each end and roughly every 600 mm in between. Then push an end cap onto each end of both tracks.
Fix the tracks
Fix the top track first, flush with the front edge of the opening, then fix the bottom track to the floor directly below it. Keep the end caps hard against the side jambs.
Hang the doors
Start with the rear door. Tilt it up and locate the top into the back channel of the top track, then lower the wheels into the groove on the bottom track. Work forward, repeating for each door. Same steps for two, three or four.
Adjust and check
Wind the wheel adjusters up or down with a screwdriver until each door sits plumb against the jamb with an even gap top to bottom. Slide the doors back and forth to make sure they run freely, then wipe the panels clean. That's the job done.
