Repair sliding door yourself

Simple repair or complete renovation

Problems with the sliding door parts are often easy to fix, or even prevent. With timely maintenance or replacing worn parts, you can extend the lifespan of the sliding door. This way, you can enjoy the sliding door for longer. On this page, we provide a number of examples for repairing the sliding door.

Levers, locks, wheels and rubbers

With lifting sliding doors, various problems can arise with the handle or the complete system (running wheels, lifting locks, rubbers, etc.). View the items and videos below for replacing the complete sliding door fittings or problems with the sliding door handles.

Due to wear and tear and little maintenance, the wheels of an aluminum sliding door break at some point. The wheel no longer functions because it is bent, breaks off or becomes completely stuck. To avoid expensive repairs, we recommend regularly replacing the sliding door wheels. If you do not do this, the sliding door rail can be seriously damaged.

Other problems include wood rot in sliding doors or parts that break due to negligent maintenance.
