Try this before you call
- Vacuum and wipe the bottom track; grit and leaves are the most common cause of a stuck door
- Check the small weep holes at the bottom of the track are not clogged
- Spray a silicone lubricant on the track and rollers (not oil)
- Lift the door slightly while you slide it, to see whether it is the rollers
If it still drags, the rollers are probably worn or the frame has shifted. That is when it is worth calling.
What we repair
Rollers, tracks, latches, handles and weatherstripping. Water, moss and debris collect in sliding door tracks in this climate, so these parts wear faster than people expect.
Foggy glass
Moisture between the two panes means the seal on the double-pane unit has failed. Cleaning will not fix it, and the unit usually needs to be replaced. We will tell you if that is what we are looking at, and what the options are.
Send a photo and describe what the door does, and we will arrange a visit.
