Why repair your sliding door in Basingstoke?
Before you replace a sliding door, it is worth knowing which faults can be put right:
Where an older sliding door in Basingstoke has several faults at once, such as misted glass, worn rollers and a failing lock, compare the total repair cost with a replacement before deciding.
If a sliding door at your Basingstoke home has started to drag, clean the bottom track thoroughly before booking anything, as grit alone can cause the problem.
- A well-maintained, repaired door can give years more service, making a repair a sensible first step when the frame and glass are otherwise sound.
- Adjusting a dropped or misaligned panel can cure draughts, rattles and a door that will not close fully against its seals.
- Replacing worn rollers is often enough to bring back the light, smooth action of a sliding panel that has become heavy and noisy to open.

What we can repair
- Lock and gearbox replacement. A new mechanism when the handle turns but the door will not lock.
- Track repair or refurbishment. Repairing damaged track sections, or fitting a new track cover where the system allows.
- Roller replacement. New rollers for each sliding panel, restoring a smooth, quiet action.
Questions about sliding door repairs in Basingstoke
How quickly can you fix a sliding door in Basingstoke?
We offer a repair date in the RG21 district once you approve the price. Common parts such as rollers and handles can often be fitted on the first visit; specialist parts may need ordering.
Can a sliding door track be repaired?
A damaged sliding door track can often be repaired or refurbished, depending on the door and how badly the track is worn. On some systems a replacement track cover can be fitted over a worn track, and on others a damaged section can be repaired. If the track is part of a frame that is failing more widely, replacement may be the better option.
How do I know if my sliding door rollers need replacing?
Sliding door rollers usually need replacing when the panel becomes hard to push, rumbles or grinds as it moves, sits lower at one end or jumps off the track. Cleaning the track first is worth trying, because grit can cause similar symptoms. If the door is still heavy once the track is clean, the rollers are likely worn or broken.
Can you replace misted glass in a sliding door?
Yes, a misted sealed unit in a sliding door can usually be replaced on its own without changing the frame. The new unit is made to the size of the old one in safety glass, as glass in doors must be, and fitted into the existing panel. It is worth checking whether the frame is still sound first.
