Why Is My Sliding Door Hard to Slide? A West Palm Beach Roller Repair Guide
Is your sliding patio door a nightmare to open? A door that's hard to slide is the #1 complaint we hear. In 90% of cases, the problem isn't the door itself, but the small components underneath: the rollers. This guide explains the signs of roller failure and how a 'sliding glass patio door repair' in West Palm Beach can fix it.
Signs Your Sliding Door Rollers Have Failed
Your rollers are the wheels that carry the heavy glass door. In West Palm Beach, the salt air, sand, and humidity cause them to corrode, rust, and develop flat spots. Signs include: a scraping or grinding noise, the door jumping off the track, and needing all your strength just to open it.
The Solution: Roller Replacement
A simple 'fix patio door' service call can solve this. A technician will safely remove the heavy door, replace the old, corroded rollers with new high-quality stainless steel ones, and clean the track. The result is a door that slides with one finger.
Don't Confuse it With a Track Problem
Many people think their track is the problem. While a 'sliding glass door track repair' (like a stainless steel cap) is sometimes needed, the track is usually just dirty. The real culprit is the rollers, which have broken down from the friction.
