This video was a huge help in putting the door together; HOWEVER, during the portion when they show how to install the safety spacers on top of the door the guy drills them into the wrong spot. The narrator says to drill so it is flush with the front of the door, which is correct, but the guy drills them flush with the BACK of the door. Given the position of the rollers in the video, the front of the door is face down on the work surface. The door WILL NOT go onto the rail if the spacers are placed where he drills them. Later when the door is put into place, the safety spacers ARE on the correct side, so they corrected their error for that shot. Overall, a visual person like me will be grateful for this video aid. Also, make sure you have enough height between the top of your door opening and ceiling or else the rollers will hit the ceiling. I found out the hard way and spent a lot of time buying new, shorter rollers and remounting them. If you install the rail as directed, you need at least four inches (I'd say about 4 1/2 to be completely safe) from the top of the rail to the ceiling in order for the rollers to fit.
I know exactly what those 11 that disliked this video are thinking, “should have just bought a stained wooden door”. Also, I hope it’s not lost on anyone that the voice over says to use a mounting board “in all conditions”, but then goes ahead putting it together without one.
Done. This video came in handy.

I ordered a 36 in and a 42 in from overstock and neither door came with the bottom door guide.
