Review on Upgraded Hole-Free Version Barn Door Soft Close Mechanism with Adjustable Door Stoppers and Actuator Spacers - Sliding Barn Door Hardware for Door Weight 70-160 Pounds by Peter Green

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Super smart, well made, insanely easy to install.

I have massive barn doors in my office that open and close multiple times a day. It takes a solid 10 seconds of concentration to close it, like jumping the other way if he hits his existing stop too hard. Well, not anymore! This ingenious little device clicks into place and slowly and carefully slides the door all the way in. You can literally open or close the door and it will gently stop. Installation was easy, just look at the cutaway photo in the product listing and do just that. You have to attach small angle brackets, which is a bit fiddly (it's not easy to put a screw in there), but it really is the worst part. Here's my super quick quick start: * Attach small angle brackets to the cartridge. , one at each end to make it look like the photo. As a result, you get each bracket looking like a mirror image of the other (one for left, one for right). / Close the door where you want it to land, then place the receiver mount in the slot. Use screws to attach it to the top. If there is a large gap between the receiver mount and the notch, use plastic washers underneath/adjust the mount up and down with a small hex screw. That's all. legal. It does its job well, reasonably priced and really well designed.
