You can see the wheel off of the track |
We have overlapping
sliding closet doors in our house. One them recently came off of the track and
had to be fixed.
This is not
a difficult job as far as a do it yourself project, it’s really easy to do.
Follow these easy step-by-step instructions and you’ll have your door back on track
in no time at all. I’ve also included some pictures to help you along the way.
First, if
you have a floor guide as I do it will have to be removed. This will allow you
to tilt the door to get it back on track.
I used some masking tape to mark the placement
of my floor guide so I knew exactly where to put it back when I was finished. You
will need a screw driver or power drill to remove the floor guides two screws.

Marking the position of the floor guide |
After you
remove the floor guide simply grab the middle of the door, push up and pull the
bottom towards you. Align the wheels back onto the track and gently push the
door back into position. Slide to door back and forth to make sure the wheels
are on track.

Pull the door out and push up to set the wheels on track |
Now all you
have to do is replace the floor guide with the two screws. Since we marked the
position this will be pretty simple.
Congratulations you’ve just fixed your closet
door. Now wasn’t that easy?
Just what I needed to know. Thanks.
