e distance between each
Hanger is determined by
measuring the distance from
the center of each end Hanger
hole, taking the total number
of brackets minus one, then
dividing the distance by that
number. is is the distance
between hangers, measuring
between the Hanger holes.
Top of Door opening to bottom
of Box Track is 3-1/4”
• Measure 3-1/4” above your Door Edge. is is where the
bottom of your Box Track will be.
• Using a level, mark a horizontal line across your wall,
slightly longer than your Track.
• Once you have figured out spacing for the Brackets
using the Hint below, right, mark where each Bracket
will be installed.
• Drill pilot holes using a 1/8” drill.
• Very loosely install the top holes in each Bracket using
Washers, Lag Screws, and a ratchet.
• Carefully pull the bottom of each Bracket out just
enough to slip the Box Track into place inside the
Brackets. This might be better accomplished with two
people. Now you can tighten the Lag Screws and install
the bottom holes of the Brackets with Lag Screws.
