Patio Door Repairs

Patio door repair is common, especially for sliding patio doors. If your door is having trouble sliding open or closed, first check to see if your door is off the track. You may be able to simply refit the door on the track yourself. Although after several years it is also not uncommon for steel or nylon wheels to wear down. The latest patio wheels have double contact points that better distribute the door’s weight and minimizes this wear, but your door may have only a single contact point. New wheels and in some cases a new track should work for this patio door repair.

You should not have to muscle a sliding patio door to get it to glide along its track. A slider should move easily enough for you to open it with one hand without any effort.

Dirty rollers are the main reason sliding doors get stuck. Dirt clogs the rollers underneath the door causing damage to the rollers and resulting in your door not sliding and in some cases not locking. Replacement parts — for anything from a faulty lock, damaged letter box or snapped leaver/handle can all be replaced and repaired. ‘We Fix Windows and Doors‘ can fix this problem for you fast and cost effectively.
