Santa Clarita Sliding Glass Door Repair and Installation

SLIDING GLASS DOOR MAINTENANCE

Just like any other part of your home, sliding glass doors require regular maintenance and occasional repairs to function optimally. If your sliding glass door is no longer working as it should, it may require cleaning or maintenance to restore smooth functioning. You can take these steps to clean out your sliding glass door track before hiring a professional sliding glass door technician:

1. Vacuum debris out of the track to remove any dirt, sand, hair or bugs that might be impeding the door’s ability to slide smoothly. 
2. Using a household cleaner, spray the inside of the track and wipe out any remaining dirt or grime from the track.
3. If the round metal portion of the track has any built up debris or rough areas, you may use steel wool to polish the metal portion of the track. If this piece of the track is severely worn out or damaged, this piece of the track may need to be replaced entirely. 
4. Lubricate the track using a silicone based lubricant to enhance the smooth movement of the door. Slide the door back and forth to distribute the lubricant along the track.

Sliding Glass Door Repair in Santa Clarita

The most common issues that we see when servicing sliding glass doors involve the functionality of the door itself. These issues include; difficulty sliding the door, doors coming off of the track, or the door not locking properly. Even if you regularly clean or maintain your sliding glass door, components can become damaged or wear out leading to your door not sliding smoothly, sticking or continually coming off the track. If you are experiencing these types of issues with your sliding glass door’s movement, you may require an experienced technician to come out and assess the problem.
