Door help please!

I have a 15' wide, 12'1" tall opening. I am building 2 sliding doors on a single track with trolley rollers - what should the finish size of the doors be?

Thank you for the help...

Hello....welcome to The Garage Journal! Just guessing her, but I would think it would depend on the track installation height. Once that is installed then take a measurement on the height from ground/floor to brackets. Width wise...opening plus your overlap divided by 2. Was there no instructions or hints with the rail kit? And if you pull, put a location in your profile .... it helps us to help you. Happy Thanksgiving!

RB answered the height issue....

Single track denotes you are hanging the track outside of the door opening ?? (unless they are going back in a pocket) If so, how much do you want the doors to hang over the sides when they are closed ? Let say two inches.

If so, your total width door span would be 15' 4" = 184 in. divided by 2 = 92 in.

Each door would be 92 in. wide when touching in the middle when closed.
