    This was a fantastic fix! My husband just is not a Mr. Fixit, but I am a Mrs. Fixit ☺️. I grew up without a dad in the house, so my mom and my sisters always were DYI’rs. Not popular back in the day. I fixed the door in a flash and am a happy camper. Thanks so much!

    Sam, I want to say thank you for sharing this information. Especially for sharing it in such a simple easy way that even I can understand it. I have issues with being able to read and follow instructions just something happens inside my head that says I'm never gonna be a mechanic. So I try this thank you so much again. Steve

    I know this video is super old but THANK YOU SO MUCH! My washer/dryer had bifold doors and the bracket had been sliding for 3 years. I was ready to rip it off the track and toss it outside. This was such an easy fix. I appreciate you so much :)

  • @aperkins07
    @aperkins07 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    doesn't help me at all. I have two bifold doors in every closet so if I were to turn the track, it's just going to affect the other door. I have actually never seen a closet with only one bifold door until now.. absolutely hate these doors

    • @JF-gy7tt
      @JF-gy7tt 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You can still screw the top thingy with a 2in screw like he does in the video. I did 2 dbl bifold closets and 1 single bifold closet earlier today. -they really are shit doors

  • @issy785

    2:14 how do I move that small metal thing?
    I hit the door and now it won’t close properly because that metal piece is too far to the left, how I do push it back?

    • @bladez942
      @bladez942 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      If you still need to know just loosen it with the screw thats in it and adjust it and screw it tight.

      Yep your whole problem started when there was no screw in it. On my doors, they are already screwed in

      @joanebeaudoin 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not sure that this is a fair assessment of the situation (plus, why not reuse instead of replace?). I replaced two of these tracks and hardware a few months ago for a set of bifold doors for my laundry closet because I thought they were worn. Well, didn't the same stupid thing happen with the new kits. Grrrrr. I am using this trick because it is frustrating trying to tighten up those stupid bracket thingies over and over again when they NEVER stay in place for very long. Having to pull the doors off to readjust the doors is time-consuming, hard to do (my doors are heavy!) and annoying.

    • @JF-gy7tt
      @JF-gy7tt 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Good Sir,
      people who want to save money are people like me.... I hate these bifold doors but will fix and keep them. Id rather put my 💰 into granite.
