Roller Replacement
One of the most common sliding door problems is worn rollers. When rollers wear out, the door can become extremely difficult to move and may damage the track.
Signs you may need roller replacement:
- Door feels heavy or rough to slide
- Grinding or scraping sounds
- Visible dragging on the bottom track
- Door jumps or binds during operation
Replacing worn rollers can dramatically improve function.

Over time, tracks can collect debris, bend, or wear down. I can help with:
- Cleaning and restoring dirty tracks
- Minor track adjustments
- Aligning doors for smoother travel
- Correcting rubbing or uneven gaps
- Improving latch and lock fit

Sliding doors are also common sources of drafts and energy loss. I can inspect and replace worn weatherstripping to help improve:
- Insulation
