48 in. x 80 in. 6 Panel Colonist Primed Textured Molded Composite Closet Bi-Fold Double Door

The glue holding the core to the facing came loose on one panel and the manufacturer will not warranty. I do not live in a humid environment and the doors have been treated very gently. It appears they did not use enough glue on the one panel, I am very disappointed with the doors and the failure of the company to make it right. Please see picture below.

First things first: make sure you check the package over before you leave the store! Lugged my 72x80" doors home and down into the basement only to open the package up and discover the top track was doing an imitation of a corkscrew. A badly mangled corkscrew. Luckily the Depot isn't all that far away. Anyway, back in the basement with the new set of doors, I opened them up and got started installing. The instructions are better than nothing, but they are by no mean thorough. Still, there aren't that many parts and you can probably figure out what goes where. Documentation was sketchy when I was researching, but these 80 inch doors require an absolute minimum of 81 1/2 inches. I think my opening was around 81 1/4 and no bueno. Fortunately you can take as much as 3/4" off the bottom (and 1/4" or so off the top & sides, too), so after lopping 3/8" off the bottom of both doors, we were in business. Everything else went in very easily. I'd never installed bi-folds before and this was a new closet we'd just built out ourselves, so I had to calculate the opening size myself. I figure that for my first try, being only 1/4" off ain't too bad. I have wrangled just the bi-fold doors before for painting projects and minor repairs, so basic familiarity with how they work probably helps. All in all, if you need closet doors, it's well worth the time and money. It's not a tough project, but the doors are a bit unwieldy; if you're on the smallish side get a helper. The quality of these doors is about average for hollow-core, but it is what it is.

The product came assembled incorrectly. The right door’s panes were hinged together wrong so it mismatched the left door when hung. Not super noticeable but still disappointing considering the cost.

Kind of easy to install. However they had to be cut to fit. The knobs do not tighten down all the way so we are going to see if a washer might work. Still have to paint them white.

I pulled carpet out of rooms in the house and installed bamboo floors. I decided I didn't want a track on the floors but rather a do0r that hangs over the floor. I looked at barn doors and they are bulky, expensive and protrude from the wall taking space from the room. What I like about these Bi-Fold doors is you can open both doors and see the whole closet, they hang and are very easy to install. I did have to make a cut on the bottom because it was a hair too tall but I assumed there would need to be some adjustments. Very pleased with the look and definitely recommend these as a low cost closet door.

I installed two of these 24” bifold doors on a 48” wide closet. They were bought in a packaged pair, so this review would also apply to a single door purchase. Note that each folding section is 11.75 inches wide, so a door is not a full 24 inches in total. The doors are reasonably sturdy and held up to the inevitable banging around while moving them into the car, then the house and during multiple on-offs at the closet to get their positioning right. I did not have the defects some other reviewers have noted; Jeld-Wen’s quality control might be lacking, so examine doors for damage before you buy them. The instructions are straightforward as to the steps, but are bare bones and ignore the needed tinkering, retrofitting and measuring. A few suggestions: 1) Lay your door(s) flat on the floor oriented to how they will go on the opening to make SURE you put the top and bottom hinge pins and the slide roller in the correct top and bottom predrilled openings. Once you pound those in, you will NOT be able to get them out, so make sure you put them in the right holes. At this point before they are hung is a good time to seal or paint the tops and bottoms of the doors. The front and back can be painted after they are installed. 2) Those holes are too small—you will have to ream them out a bit with a round file or a drill. Two of the predrilled holes weren’t even deep enough—I had to drill them deeper to accept the hinge pins. 3) Don’t automatically screw the bottom hinge brackets onto the floor, as the instructions say. Depending on the height of your opening, you may have to put a shim under them. To determine that, carefully compare the height of the opening to the height of the door, allowing another inch total for the minimum additional length of the top and bottom hinges, i.e., if their springs/adjusters are contracted as far as possible. 4) Measure the position for the top rail guide very carefully. If you have some trim around the front of the door that the bi-folds will close against, you want the top rail positioned to minimize any gap, but not so close the doors won’t close. 5) Make sure you place the knobs on the solid wood frame part of the doors, not the hollow part. (Place them like the photo that came with the box). In sum, measure the ideal position of EVERY PART very carefully before installing it. It’s not difficult, but it is tedious.

Product was true to size and fit perfectly...

Ordered this door a while ago, took a long time to finally get it. Once I got I didn't have time to install it right away, but today when I opened the box, noticed on one of the doors, the face is separating from the frame. Almost the whole length on one side, on one door. Poor quality, but you get what you pay for. Expected better, not worth the time or effort to return. Just going to fix it, apparently better than the way they manufacture these doors. waste of time.

We replaced a bypass closet door with the bi-fold to allow greater access to the closet and we are very pleased with the result. Installation took a bit of time not because of the doors, but the opening. If was a bit of plumb and a bit narrow requiring some trimming on a table saw ....par for the course in home improvement, not everything is straight forward. Make sure you read the instructions on how much leeway you have to trim the door! The doors painted up nicely and work as advertised.
