BarnDoor Soft Close Install Guide

2. Position and Mount the 2 Soft Close Triggers. After you have installed the 2 soft close mechanisms, you should mount the 2 triggers. The trigger is what is grabbed by the soft-close mechanism to close the door. These 2 triggers are mounted to the top edge of the door. Close the door completely...under 1 of the 2 soft slose mechanisms. Position 1 of the 2 triggers in place on the top edge of the door under the soft close mechanism. See drawing #4 below. Trigger must be located between the 2 spring-loaded catch guides on the bottom of the soft-close mechanism. Screw the trigger in place under the soft close mechanism using 2 Phillips Head screws on each Trigger...1 screw into each elongated slot. Trigger may be adjusted after installation between the front side and the back side of the door. Trigger may also be adjusted vertically, by loosening and tightening the Set Screw on the vertical part of the trigger extending above the door. Repeat process for mounting trigger at other end of door.

3. Adjust operation if needed and mount Anti-Jump Discs After the triggers are installed, the soft-close function should be complete. If the doors are not closing completely on either end, you may need to slightly move the soft-close mechanisms to the right or left by a half-inch or so. Just loosen the 4 Allen Nuts...reposition the soft-cose mechanism...and re-tighten the nuts. After your door soft-close are functioning correctly...then mount the anti-jump rings between the 2 soft-close mechanisms on the top edge of the door. And fasten the final 3rd Phillips Head Set Screw into each of the 2 triggers. drawing #6
