Sliding doors are a great way to add convenience and natural light to a room. They are a central part of "indoor outdoor living" that blends home interior spaces with exterior areas like patios. But they can also be tricky to repair when they malfunction or wear down, particularly for homes near the beach as saltwater spray can be corrosive. Whether your sliding door is stuck, not sliding properly, or broken, you can save yourself time and money by fixing the issue instead of replacing the door entirely. Here is some sliding door maintenance advice from HoloHolo Screens - Honolulu's sliding door repair, restoration and replacement experts.
Troubleshooting Sliding Doors by HOLOHOLO SCREENS OAHU
Here are some tips to help you troubleshoot your sliding door and determine if repairs are necessary, and if it can be done DIY or if it is time to call professional sliding door repair experts.
Inspect the Door and Tracks
The first step in any sliding door repair is to inspect the door and tracks for any damage or obstructions. Check for any bent or broken tracks, or anything that may be blocking the door from sliding. If the tracks are bent or blocked, you may need to straighten them out or remove the obstruction before the door will slide properly.
Check for Loose Hardware
Another common cause of sliding door issues is loose hardware. Check the screws, bolts, and other components that hold the door in place to make sure they are all secured tightly. If any of the screws are loose or missing, replace them with new ones.
Replace the Rollers
If the door is still not sliding properly, you may need to replace the rollers. Over time, the rollers can become worn out, covered in gunk, damaged by debris, or rusted down. If cleaning them won't cut it due to the degree of damage or deterioration, then the rollers can be replaced.
Address Rust and Corrosion
Homes by Oahu's beaches or near the island's shores will be exposed to saltwater carried by the wind, particularly during bad weather. Sliding doors will be exposed to said saltwater, which is corrosive, and will be prone to rusting along with other exposed metal surfaces. Applying rust removers and new coats of corrosion-resistant paint will extend the lifespan of sliding doors.
Let the pros help your home sliding door repair and restoration projects. If the wear and tear is untenable or if a sliding door upgrade is called for then consider sliding door replacements.
