4. Installationsvejledning
The JUBEST FG05-Black floor guide offers versatile installation options to suit various sliding barn door configurations. Ensure the floor surface is clean and level before installation.
4.1. Method 1: Door with Bottom Groove (Hidden Installation)
This method is suitable for doors that have a pre-cut groove along their bottom edge. The guide fits into this groove, providing a clean, hidden appearance.
- Placer døren: Close the barn door completely to its desired final position.
- Markeringsplacering: Place one floor guide on the floor directly beneath the door's bottom groove. Ensure it is centered within the groove and aligned with the door's path. Mark the positions of the two mounting holes on the floor using a pencil.
- Bor pilothuller: Move the door aside. Using an appropriate drill bit for your floor type (wood, concrete, etc.), drill pilot holes at the marked locations. If installing into drywall or hollow surfaces, insert the plastic wall anchors into the pilot holes.
- Secure the Guide: Align the floor guide with the pilot holes/anchors and secure it firmly to the floor using the provided mounting screws. Do not overtighten.
- Test drift: Slide the door back and forth to ensure smooth movement and proper engagement with the floor guide.

4.2. Method 2: Door without Bottom Groove (Visible Installation / Bypass System)
This method uses two floor guides, one on each side of the door, to keep it stable. This is ideal for doors without a bottom groove or for bypass barn door systems where two doors slide past each other.
- Placer døren: Close the barn door completely to its desired final position.
- Markeringsplacering: Place one floor guide on the floor on one side of the door, ensuring it is snug against the door's edge and aligned with its path. Mark the mounting holes. Repeat this process for the second floor guide on the opposite side of the door.
- Bor pilothuller: Move the door aside. Drill pilot holes at the marked locations. Insert plastic wall anchors if necessary.
- Secure the Guides: Align each floor guide with its respective pilot holes/anchors and secure them firmly to the floor using the provided mounting screws. Ensure the guides are parallel and properly spaced to allow the door to slide freely between them without excessive play.
- Test drift: Slide the door back and forth to confirm smooth movement and stability. Adjust guide positions slightly if the door binds or wobbles.

5. Betjening
Once installed, the JUBEST FG05-Black floor guide will keep your sliding barn door aligned and prevent it from swaying. The door should slide smoothly along the guide(s) without resistance. If you experience any friction or binding, re-check the alignment and ensure the guides are securely fastened.

6. Vedligeholdelse
The JUBEST FG05-Black floor guide requires minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect the guides and mounting screws for any signs of loosening or wear. Tighten screws if necessary. Clean the guides and the bottom edge of the door with a damp cloth to remove dust or debris that could impede smooth operation.
7. Fejlfinding
- Door wobbles or swings excessively:
- Ensure the floor guides are securely fastened to the floor.
- Verify that the guides are positioned correctly and snugly against the door (or within the groove).
- If using two guides, ensure they are parallel and the spacing is appropriate for the door thickness.
- Door binds or is difficult to slide:
- Check for any debris or obstructions around the guides or in the door's bottom groove.
- Ensure the guides are not overtightened, which could cause warping.
- Verify that the door's bottom groove (if applicable) is clean and free of obstructions.
- Confirm the guides are aligned perfectly with the door's travel path.
- Guides appear loose after installation:
- Retighten mounting screws. If screws continue to loosen, consider using stronger anchors or a different mounting location if possible.
