Our Services

Sliding Door Repair Services

From roller replacement to full glass panel fabrication, we restore sliding doors to smooth, secure operation.

Roller Replacement

Most Common Fix

Worn-out rollers are the number one cause of stuck sliding doors. We replace tandem rollers, spring-loaded rollers, and steel ball-bearing assemblies for smooth, effortless operation.

Track Repair and Replacement

Bent, corroded, or debris-filled tracks prevent the door from gliding. We straighten, clean, or replace aluminum and steel tracks to restore proper alignment.

Glass Panel Replacement

Safety Glass

Cracked or shattered sliding door glass requires tempered safety glass cut to your exact panel dimensions. We measure, fabricate, and install -- usually same day.

Weatherstripping and Seals

Drafty sliding doors waste energy. We replace worn weatherstripping, pile seals, and fin seals to restore insulation and keep out moisture, bugs, and noise.

Lock and Handle Repair

Broken latches, handles, and mortise locks leave your home insecure. We repair or replace locking mechanisms for all sliding door brands and restore proper security.

Security Bar and Screen Door

Add or replace sliding door security bars and screen doors. We install secondary security measures that work with your existing door system.

FAQ

Sliding Door Repair Questions

What is the most common cause of a stuck sliding door?
Worn rollers. The nylon or steel wheels that allow the door to glide along the track degrade over time due to dirt, moisture, and daily use. Roller replacement is the most common and effective fix -- most doors slide like new immediately afterward.
How long does sliding door roller replacement take?
Typically 1-2 hours per door. The door must be lifted off the track, the old roller assemblies removed, new rollers installed, and the door rehung and adjusted. We carry common roller types in our service vehicles for same-day completion.
Can you fix a sliding door that has been off the track for a while?
Usually, yes. However, a door that has been operated while off-track may have caused secondary damage to the frame, track, or glass. We assess the full situation and recommend the most cost-effective repair path.
Should I lubricate my sliding door track?
Clean it first -- debris and hardened dirt cause most track problems. After cleaning, apply a silicone-based lubricant (never WD-40 or oil-based products, which attract more dirt). If the door still sticks after cleaning and lubricating, the rollers likely need replacement.
Is it worth repairing an old sliding door or should I replace the whole thing?
If the frame is structurally sound, roller and track repair is usually far less expensive than full door replacement. We can restore most sliding doors to smooth operation for a fraction of replacement cost. We advise replacement only when the frame is rotted, warped, or structurally compromised.
Do you work on multi-panel sliding door systems?
Yes. We service two-panel, three-panel, and four-panel sliding door systems, including pocket doors that slide into the wall. Multi-panel systems require precise alignment of all panels -- we adjust each one individually.
