2020 373RD - Twin Mirror sliding closet doors
I had an issue with track for closet sliding doors completely coming loose from the ceiling. I got some plastic screw in sheet rock anchors and installed in the ceiling. Put silicone on the back of the track and reinstalled. Rehung the doors in correct positions but now the door to the left does not stop. It will open all the way with the first door. No extra parts were laying around.
Could some of you look and see what is suppose to stop the left door from opening all the way?

On our 3791RD, the doors open all the way to one side or the other, except the last maybe 2 inches or so. There is hardware mounted on the far left and far right sides to lock to the doors in place for travel. The one on the rear door, right side in my case, protrudes enough to prevent the left door from opening any further.

Thank you for the reply - is there a chance you can take a pic of the hardware that locks them in place?

2020 373RD - Twin Mirror sliding closet doors
I have a 385BR, it appears they just used a screw as a stop on my door. Its screwed in to the track at a slight angle and enough to catch the door.
It might have been the same on yours.

Here's the latch. It is a rod that slides up and plugs into the plastic piece on the jamb.

AW - the difference between a Montana and a High Country - you have the wooden frames. High Country has a metal frame and no place to screw that kind of catch into frame.

That was it, kinda wondered why the one was off center that far.

OK - rough road coming into Billings Montana - pulled the closet door track out of the ceiling AGAIN ... there simply is nothing above the thin ceiling plywood to mount into.
Need opinions, please.
First fix:
A - removed doors and ceiling track
B - Put plastic sheet rock anchors into wood
C - put silicone on the back of the track and remounted to ceiling.
Second fix:
A - found some wood behind side wall - Put two 1" angle irons in to hold track up
Time will tell.
If it fails again? remove ceiling and get some structure in there to support doors or ??
Just glad I door have the Montana wood doors, they might be heavier.
Open to thoughts and feedback. Might have to change my repair list for rally.

Maybe this will save you hassle. After rough roads jarred my sliding wardrobe doors off of their track, I now roll up a couple of microfiber cloths and tuck them above the doors before towing. No more problems.

2018 HC Closet Door
Our 2018 HC 305RL double closet door track has pulled from the top. We need to get the doors off to repair it. How do we do this?

There's a piece that pops into the bottom track, pull it free first. Then you have to look between the two doors to see two doors, there's angle brackets the help pull the second door closed. need to push the let door open out of the way. The right door bottom needs to pulled towards the to get it to release from the track. Then remove the screw in the track that prevents the left door from closing to where the door is free from the frame on the left side and disengage it from the track.
Installing will be the reverse process. This whole process is hard to describe. Let me know if you have questions.
