How to adjust your bifold doors

[@kentabata5834]

Quick explanation while working...no playing around or talking endlessly....great video

[@EddieSlabb]

This video really made me appreciate old KZbin how to videos, and new KZbin audio recording.

[@Texan_Patriot]

Omg I was going crazy trying to get my door to quit dragging on the carpet! It was SOOOO damn tough to open, I'm a big dude and it took BOTH HANDS for me to open it....I was not aware of that little sprocket-looking bottom pivot being height adjustable!🤦 Once I loosened it and added some height, it came right off the carpet and I can open the door with just TWO FINGERS! THANK YOU!!

[@bbart609]

I've had my closet doors dragging against the carpet for an embarrassingly long time. Just fixed them in 10 minutes thanks to your video. Thank you!

[@tanjac6811]

I have cursed my bifold door for two years. Thank you for this video!!! I needed this!

[@kimberlyanderson5773]

May the home improvement gods be forever in your favor! Thank you so much for a full tutorial!!

[@dnaedwards]

Great how to video. Thanks for covering each part on the door. Many videos will cover one or two parts or address a specific issue. The information you shared gave me exactly what I needed to get my office doors working like new again. Well done and thank you!

[@TheBliz22]

Thank you for this easy to follow guide. I had spent 30 mins with no success trying to reinstall both doors. After your vid I was done in 10.

[@geriwatts1315]

Fixed. Thank you! Clear, recipe, easy to understand and follow directions.

[@ktb6159]

I don’t know why I never thought to look this up. It’s been 3 years of hating my laundry room door, and now it’s fixed. Thank you!

[@rousseautr]

Ok I did it! I'm 5 ft 4 and my doors are old heavy wooden doors. Sitting on the couch here recuperating from overexertion... but I won... 😜

[@kylegier]

Thank you! Moved into a new house 5 months ago and have been living with crooked closet doors since moving in. Finally fixed them

[@toniking8900]

We did it. Thanks for the instructions..

[@PaulPOnline]

Hey! Thanks so much! I am home handyman challenged and you just earned me huge brownie points with my lovely wife. So cool!!

[@wgv929]

Thank you Sir. Your vid made my day. These bifold doors have been giving me nightmares for years.

[@sherryaw40]

Thank you. This was very helpful. Fixed my door in 5 minutes after viewing your video.

[@caitlintierney4663]

I had a door that pitched so badly the other end was too low to stay in the sliding bracket so the door would just fall out of the frame if pulled even a little bit. I just thought the framing of the door was uneven. In less that 1 minute (at the 58s mark of the video), I fixed a problem I have been dealing with for 6 years. Thank you!

[@annasmith4404]

Your video has saved my sanity! THANK YOU!!

[@DEBIGALANTI77]

The door came off the track days ago & I can't even begin how frustrating it is waiting for my husband to do it. i tried to fix it every which way ... holding it up w my legs & pushing the pin down w a flat head screwdriver, squishing my fingers as the door slammed in half etc. i didnt know that the screw just needed to be loosened & the flat thingy could move on the track which makes it easier! My husband will be amazed that it'll be done when he gets home from work. Thank you for your help! :)

[@wdbreezy]

+Debi Galanti I had the same situation today, but am single and thought I'd have to hire a handyman. KZbin to the rescue - this video quickly explained the parts and how they worked. It took me a good 30 minutes, but I was able to loosen the top, reposition the bottom and get the stupid thing back on the track and tightened !!

[@lyndapugliese7751]

Happy to have found your video. My doors are now much better aligned than the poor job left by the builder. Thanks very much for making the fix simple!

[@ameraro1]

Thank you for this video. I've never tried to fix a bi-fold door before and mine came right out of the groove and this video help me fix it in under 5 minutes!!

[@judyp4]

Wow! This is a huge help! My stupid doors have had me in tears and my husband frustrated at so many failed attempts to fix it. Thank you so much!! Will sure share!

[@RayRay-js5hl]

I literally put this job off for 3 months until I watched this video and it took like 5 minutes to fix lol thanks for the upload

[@caswellanderson]

Thank God for KZbin Videos...you saved me on this one. We had our carpets replaced and the installers did a bad job of putting the doors back in the bedrooms. So I had to go behind them and fix everything back they way it was. However, I wasn't sure of what to do...

[@kokosmom2]

I just fixed my door! Thanks for the clear and easy to follow instructions

[@gregharbin3457]

That was good! It answered the questions I had about evening the heights of my uneven doors.

[@XiaoGeGai]

👍 this is the best video among many on the topic of bifold door!

[@JohnHoffman65]

Well narrated instructions and good camera shots.

[@mischaelmckenna5456]

Thank you SOOO much-I was trying to figure out the brackets for a while-you made it so easy!

[@lauraguill5697]

This was so incredibly helpful. Thank you!

[@unicorngodess100]

Thank you!!! Closet doors were rubbing together and not wanting to close! All they needed was the top bracket adjusted!! Thank you

[@noha9071]

Omg thank you thank you thank you! Finally fixed my sagging closet door that's been bugging me for months!!

[@AuronFFX]

Thanks so much, I had a carpet removed and the contractor had messed up my bathroom door so it didn't close Kept falling out of the tracks and thought it was broken but the height screw was all that needed adjusting.

[@OTBkid]

Our alignment brackets for sold them that they were touching and springing the door open. So they never would be fully closed. Whew. I just bent em back now it's closed and I'm a hero

[@chrisml8105]

You're an American hero. Thank you.

[@ccalexander1924]

I’m about to adjust mine tomorrow ! One of my doors sits to low. I think I need to unscrew it some from the bottom so it lifts upward ? I have been putting it off thinking I have to take the entire door off ( and putting them on was so painful). So I hope it works !!!

[@alliepoltanis7949]

Thank you so MUCH, I adjusted my doors myself and didn't have to wait for my husband to get around to it!

[@mellularphone]

Ha, that’s exactly why I came to this video, and yours was the first comment I saw. Perfect 😂

[@AtHomeWithCrystalRenee]

This is great info. We have a bifold door going into our laundry room. The problem is our house is not level and it constantly comes out of the track. I finally just took it completely down but I would like to rehang it. Sometimes it’s nice to just close the door and pretend the laundry doesn’t exist. 😂 Will these tips work for a house that isn’t level?

[@kashmoney1043]

This video is a lifesaver. I was SO about to snatch my doors off 🤣

[@jjwilkes]

Thank you by watching this I managed to finally repair my doors

[@SleeplessInSeattle-24]

thank you for this helpful video. I fixed the door gap

[@anthonystrother2381]

[@leslievanderau4278]

Sending a 0100 thank you! Hubby can come to bed now 😂 I saved the day looking it up on KZbin!

[@tracyfraser8756]

Awesome thank you for this easy to follow video... It's great I was able to repair it myself and so simply

[@renkey-keyhorner8773]

Thank youuuuu!!!! Great and simple instructions.

[@richarddmarks]

This helped a lot. Thank you.

[@HelloKittyFanMan]

What about when one of the doors insists on falling _open_ a tad?

[@futbol1972]

My teen has a small bedroom 10x10 with a refular small closet with two sliding doors..Will it be worth it to swap them for blindfold doors to maximize closet space or not really? And can I install them on existing track or do blindfold doors come with its own track system? Thank u

[@katepaparazzo8512]

OMG - fixed the right side of the door that was scraping EVERY SINGLE TIME I opened the dang door. Finally. Um - for those of us that aren't 6' tall, however, a step ladder is handy! ;)

[@GeoEstes]

Thank you! Very clearly explained.

[@BaldEagle1]

Thank you very much! This was VERY helpful.

[@SaritaMoreno]

My door doesn’t have a spring loaded pin on side that meets in middle, it gets loose often cuz ceiling slants up. Wall side pivot pin seems stable and not moving. Any other tips?

[@josephmontoya4278]

Thanks for the video just fixed all my closet doors.

[@jeffreystutz4012]

This was so helpful! Clear and relevant. Do you have to wait till your spouse goes out?

My right door is not lightened up with left door. When shut from top to bottom tbe right one is sticking out more then other. I need to push it in more how do I do that.

[@fiberandfiction]

Thank you so much for this video!!

[@hansavithlani583]

I just wonder if I can buy new fixtures from anywhere? Could you please let me know? Thanks.

[@nameste18]

Thank-you! Very helpful. I can relate to not wanting to go with the family and staying home!!!! :)

[@cward98usa]

[@patriciathomaas2407]

I have already done that and the large gap still shows 😢

[@codysantor]

[@rafaelarguello2171]

Life saver. Thanks!

[@marcuspullan1142]

I hate bifolds. REALLY hate them. You’ve got it so I “tolerate” them

[@AlexFigueroaFloridaWildlife]

Thanks for this video!!

[@GretzkySanders]

Thank you very much!

[@tomblack4437]

Excellent-thanks

[@chol7543]

Thanks, this helped with some doors I just hung last night.

[@JBM425]

I think that at some point, I need to either patch the hole in the left door that the top pin for the bracket rides in (it feels like the entire pin assembly is loose or wobbly and would easily pull out), or replace the doors entirely (the laundry room doors are solid, but my wife prefers to keep them open a crack because of the gas water heater, so I may ultimately replace them with folding doors with louvers). For now, thanks to your video, at least I've fixed that left door so it doesn't jam against the floor when we fold it back to get laundry out of the dryer, and when both doors are closed, they close without fighting each other, even though they are not quite level. I've had a pretty full afternoon drilling out stripped holes for the door handles and filling them in with wood dowels glued in with the epoxy I used to build rockets. The handle is solidly attached again, and the doors can at least close and don't bind on the floor when opened. Call it "close enough for government work." ;)

[@jengo.9783]

Thanks!

[@erickcabrera2697]

You saved my marriage

[@hawkz3167]

My God, you're a saint ! Thanks!!

[@adhen_K]

Great! Thank you!

[@evelynbrn1120]

Very helpful, thank you kindly.

[@DjGabrielEscobar973]

My issue is the height but when i adjust from the bottom to raise it, it hits that set screw on top and rubs against top door

[@gwendolynegbert4944]

Very helpful, thank you!

[@littlewigglemonster7691]

Mine fell off and now its too short

[@OplulentCreator]

This was helpful. Thank you

[@lauriejayne27]

Thank you!!! This helped me today.

[@kwelchans]

My set screw is always coming loose. I think I have the wrong kind of screw; it looks different than the one in your video. What kind of screw do I need to get?

[@Whatworksthisworks]

Thank you for the video!

[@kingmiller1982]

Informative and funny video.

[@HomeschoolingDad79]

thanks, it was a big help

[@packrcch]

is he standing on something or is he that tall?

[@Bithiah71]

It worked! Thank you

[@firewater365]

Our set screw can't get tight enough to keep the top bracket from moving. what gives?

[@ronsmutz3990]

same!

[@icawn]

Ive found the location of your knobs could result in the track bending and failing over time. It has happened to me twice. If you can open the doors via knob, but not close them via knob, or vice versa, this is what i mean. Need to think about this if you have kids.

[@DoingItLocal]

Thanks! Fixed it!

[@sharabrown66]

I’m going to try this to fix my closet doors

[@way2comfortable698]

My closet door is tall as hell can’t reach it . Should’ve bought a small one

[@GiftHorse123]

These bifold doors have a mind of their own. Kinda like my wife.

[@nexxusty]

This did nothing for raising the door in the middle.

[@dorsiareservation900]

Thanks Southern Ryan Reynolds! My door is still pretty crappy, but at least it's not lying on my floor anymore.

[@evening8382]

I subscribed just because you like fabric!

[@ambeeerlynnn724]

Is your twin Ryan Reynolds?

[@MrEricgram]

Ladies nobody likes a sloppy knob job a dab of nail polish or some locktite on the threads of those knob screws and forget about em until your ready for new ones !!
