• 1

• 2

  Grasp the panel firmly on each side with your hands.

  Lift the panel straight up so the rollers at the bottom of the door clear the track at the bottom.

  Swing the bottom of the door toward you and away from the track.

• 5

  Lower the panel slightly so the top of the door clears the upper track.

  Repeat Steps 1 through 6 to remove the remaining glass panel.

• 8

  Install the glass panels in the reverse order of removal.
