Among the common functional or sliding door problems are the damage to the materials rotten wood and deformation of the metal. First of all not all leaks of water by your sliding door are from the door. If this door with a worn roller is not repaired then the resulting damage to the track will cause more damage to roller carriage and then the door. Sliding doors are very heavy very breakable and very expensive this is a two person job.

The problem can be triggered by damaged or improperly fitted hardware or dirty rails. The image below shows a very badly worn wardrobe roller and carriage. Then lift the door up and out of the track laying it down carefully across two sawhorses. Second are the tracks that have failed adhesive when you tap these they sound hollow call us and schedule a service call to see if you need a track replacement.

To clean and lubricate the hardware of a sliding closet door use a stiff brush a toothbrush or a hand vacuum to clean dust from the tracks. There are some that travel down from the roof on the joists to the frame of the door. Use an aerosol lubricant to lubricate all the door rollers. If the rollers are damaged install replacement rollers available at home centers.
