-
Investigate the cleanliness of the tracks.
-
If the tracks are dirty, scrub them with toothbrush to clean out the dust.
-
You can use a rag or a hand vacuum to remove the loosened dust.
-
-
-
Investigate whether the sliding door is along the top tracks.
-
If the door is completely unhooked from the top tracks:
-
Try to lift up on the door.
-
Slightly push the door in toward the closet.
-
Hook in the top rollers back onto the upper tracks.
-
-
-
If the bottom rollers do not align, follow these steps:
-
Do not force anything.
-
Gently try to lift up on the door and guide its bottom rollers into the bottom tracks.
-
If the door still needs to be realigned, continue to Step 4.
-
If the door is successfully realigned with the bottom tracks, continue to Step 6.
-
-
-
-
Lift the top rollers up, then above and onto the top tracks.
-
If this doesn't work, see Step 5.
-
-
-
Grab the sliding door that is behind it.
-
Lift it up so that the rollers at the bottom disconnect with the track.
-
Keep the top rollers connected.
-
Put down the door so that the bottom rollers are behind the track, closer to the closet.
-
-
-
Grab the door in front.
-
Attach it to both the top and bottom tracks.
-
Grab the door behind and do the same.
-
-
-
The doors should be located properly on their tracks.
-
Try to slide the doors along the tracks.
-
If they don't slide well, you may need to lubricate the tracks:
-
Grab a lubricant: olive oil, fish oil, mineral oil, or petroleum jelly.
-
Apply a small amount of the lubricant to the edge of the rag.
-
Fit the edge of the rag into the tracks.
-
Spread the rag throughout the tracks to spread the lubricant.
-
Slide the closet door along the tracks to spread the lubricant further.
