Hey. I have a pocket door to my bathroom that has come off its track. How can I get it back on without removing any parts of the doorway or damaging the door or track?

Most overhead doors have a cam locking system to attach the door to the overhead track carriage. You will have to get your hands on a pocket door wrench and manually lower the door down to be able to flip the cam lock switch and release the door from it's carriage. Once you have both carriages free from the door you can get them back onto the track and then reattach the door in the reverse order. If your home is older you may have to remove the doorstop trim from one side of the door to complete this type of repair.
Good Luck!!!

Pocket Door Wrench

In order to re-install a pocket door on its tracks you will notice there are two tabs at the top of the door itself. One on each wheel that goes into the track. Simply slide it to the open position and re-install door. After door is in position turn locking mechanism to secure in place.......Voila.
If the door needs to be adjusted to be in the proper place, you will need a special little wrench that comes when you purchase a new pocket door. Your hardware store should have one they can give you.
