TRACK MOUNTING OPTIONS
Once the drive system is mounted, the tracks can be securely mounted, using a drill, to the
sliding door panel engaging the motor wheel. The tracks can be mounted flange up or flange
down depending on clearance.
The AutoSlide kit by default includes regular tracks (shown below on the left). Slimline tracks
(right) are available upon request before purchasing and are designed for barn and pocket doors.
If the top frame of the sliding
panel is too thin, you can
mount a metal bar to
the sides of the sliding panel.
Then mount the tracks to
the bar. The bar should span
the full width of the sliding panel.
If the tracks
don't meet the
motor wheel
due to a
horizontal gap,
use spacers or
shims to extend
out the track.

TRACK TYPES AND CHANNEL SIZE
If there isn't enough frame on the door's sides
to bar mount the tracks, they can also be
secured to the door using 3M VHB industrial
tape. Contact a specialist on the recommended
tape for your door material. If adhering to glass,
seal the glass first to prevent moisture weeping
into tape.
Alternatively, motor wheels with longer pinions
are available on request when purchasing. The
longer pinion will extend the wheel up to 1".
