SINGLE & DOUBLE DOOR CONFIGURATIONS
Single Door Installation
T he single door installation may be used when there is sufficient wall space to the right OR the left of the wall opening that is at least 6” wider than the actual wall open- ing. For instance, if your wall opening is 36” wide, then you must have at least 42” of available wall space to the right or to the left of the wall opening. Consider an extra-wide single door if you have a wider sized opening that has sufficient wall space. If wall space is available on BOTH sides of the opening, you might want to consider a double door installation. Alternatively, if there is little or no wall space on EITHER side of the wall opening, then you might consider the double BYPASS door installation.
Double Doors Installation
T he double door installation may be used when this dou- ble door gives the desired appearance and when there is sufficient open wall space on both sides of the door open - ing. We suggest that this available wall space should be at least 2” wider than half the width of the opening. For example, if your opening in the wall is 60” wide, then half of this measurement is 30”. And you should have at least 32” (30” + 2” allowance) of wall space both to the right side and to the left side of the opening. For a double door installation, you will need 2 doors and 2 sliding door hardware kits. The rails from each of the 2 kits meet in the center above your wall opening. The Double Door Rail Connector (see page 10) is an available option that mounts across the joined ends of the 2 door rails for a seamless double door configuration.
