Sliding door top panel installation

Post by Carcar87 »

Hi, I am looking for some help in installation of ply panel to top of sliding doors, as there is no holes for the push clips like at the bottom. Any help? Thanks

How about some heavy duty double sided sticky velcro?

Sliding door top panel installation

Hi buddy, welcome to the forum!

I used 4mm rivnuts and black flanged socket screws to secure my carpeted panel above the door. Easy to remove if required and the screws are pretty much invisible.

Mine has self tapping screws into the framework. Looks tidy enough.
