21 Solitude Closet Door Issue
The mirrored closet doors in the bedroom of my 377mbs seem to have come out of adjustment and will not close properly. I am having difficulty finding any type of adjustment hardware on the doors. Is there a trick to this that I am not seeing? Any help would be appreciated. (these are not barn door type hangers)
Thanks!Dennis, Pat, Prince and the Lady - Western New York

If the issue is caused by the doors rubbing on the lower track, the doors can be adjusted up and down by loosening some little locking nuts on the "trolley" hangers at the top and then turning the hanger studs one way or the other. It takes a very thin wrench to do this.

Sorry, Deb, I do not remember what size wrench. This type of tool can be purchased at any of the home improvement stores, a hardware store, etc. (My tool kit is a mish-mash of tools... everything from new to things out of my father's and grandfather's things - several well over 100 years old!) A call to GD Customer Service or the dealer would likely answer your question. Perhaps @huntr70 would know.

I’m pretty sure it is a 3/8” on our 310. If not it was 5/16”. The outer door can be adjusted from inside the closet. To adjust the inner door I pulled off the upper trim piece , which will actually make it easier to adjust the outer.

Check where and how the bottom track is mounted. The carpet under mine was all bunched up and it made the track higher on the left than the rest of it.
I removed the track, straightened out the carpet making it level all the way across and the doors operated much better.
I don't recall if I had to adjust them up or down. They should be down as much as you dare without hanging up to make sure they don't come off from all the bouncing while traveling.Larry KE4DMG

Good point. Our 2021 does not have carpet but others may have and it's a good idea to check that. Our closet doors worked perfectly until we we t north bound on I-35E. Nearly rattled the teeth out of my head. LOL It isn't surprising the doors dropped out of adjustment. It sure would be nice if those doors came with instructions for adjusting them when they experience a rough ride.
Our thanks to all the comments and good information.

Have had to adjust mine twice now. Last year after first long trip and again after winter this spring. Not sure why they suddenly went out of adjustment both times but easy fix.

Ours comes out of the track a lot. I have to use a screwdriver to lift the door and force it back onto the track
