# Adjusting JELD-WEN Bifold Closet Doors
JELD-WEN bifold closet doors have a horizontal or vertical adjustment. The horizontal adjustment levels the doors. It sets the pivot in the top track along with the screw closest to the door jamb on the floor. The vertical adjustment lowers or raises the doors. It's completed by moving the wheel in the bottom bracket. When the doors are properly adjusted, they should snap shut, but open easily. JELD-WEN has more than one type of hardware it uses on its bifold doors. The adjustment method may vary slightly depending on the type of hardware, but most types operate similarly.
