48 in. x 80 in. Colonist Primed Textured Molded Composite MDF Closet Bi-Fold Double 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...

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.

Easy to install and look great. We left a quarter inch overhang of the trim so you couldn't see any gaps on the sides and it came out great.

The door is a piece of junk!

My husband and i MEVER got those so this is my review. I dont see a refund on the product on my card

Doors are nice looking but not very robust.

The doors were cute and seemed to be fair quality but they were both busted when I received them so I had to return them.
