How to install a sliding closet door pull.
Mark the measurement with the edge of another piece of masking tape so that.
Measure in 1 1 2 inches along the bottom of the tape from the edge of the door that you intend to install the pull at.
Use a small standard screwdriver and finish hammer to remove the small nails.
Either way let us know how it s going.
Hold the door so the top is tilted backward.
The runner is what the wheels roll along so the door can slide back and forth.
Insert the wheels on the top of the first door into the top track.
The normal height for hardware on an 8 foot door is 36 inches from the bottom side up.
Mark the location for the door pull.
Step 1 position the pull.
This assumes you have a solid core pocket door.
If you have a hollow core door then you will need to locate the wood block in the door and install the pull in that block.
If that doesn t work at least now you may have enough to grab with the pliers without the screw.
The task is easier if you predrill the holes and use a drill bit on the drill to secure the screws.
Carefully use a small standard screwdriver to go around and slowly pry the pull off.
Drill a shallow hole in the center drive a screw into the hole far enough to get a grip on the pull two complete turns at least grab the screw with a pair of pliers and pull it out.
