Wardrobe door adjustment?

[RMBN]

had a new right hand wardrobe door fitted under warranty, it split. New one is so stiff it's a two handed job to slide it.. asking to be damaged again. Is there any adjustment that can be made to loosen it up?

Likewise I had mine replaced under warranty. Try some silicone spray on the runners as suggested by the mechanic/technician who fitted it, helps a bit but go gentle as not a very robust design.

Yep or some vasoline, mine slides a treat now

Hi I was closing my door and the front section came out of the track in my hand and I cant seem to see how it goes back ? IThe only way I can see is by inserting it diagonally to get in the tracks but it seems to leave a gap at the top and the bottom that does not look right . The rest is OK but I will have to tape it up to the rest once I can fathom how it fits ! Please help looks a mess !

T5.1? A picture might help those wiser than myself too.

If it is the roller door, then the section should be in one piece, but they do spilt. To remove the and insert the roller doors there are end stops at the end of the track that are in the fully closed position, they can get removed by undoing the screw in each one and then the whole roller door can be extracted inwards.

We have had these doors fail and I use heavy duty 3M clear tape on the outside to secure and you will see that on later vans VW also use a special tape on the inside.
