The step of study process started from studied the sliding door installation processes, gathering the works process and reducing unnecessary and duplicate of work process on site elimination, establishing standardized time for modifying the installation process. From the result before applied new method we founded that the installation process before installation process improvement, we were spent the time of installation process at 45.38 minute per set and after we used the new method we founded that the installation process time was 35.36 minute per set, it can be decreased the installation time was 10.02 minute and the efficiency of work process operation was increased 22.08 percent and the line balancing performance before improvement was 56.73 percent and after improvement was 88.40 percent and the line balancing performance was increased 31.67 percent. Unless there are the improvement installation methods, it makes the company in case study will be do the work to be delay and cannot be hand over the works just in time by the schedule planning.
