Why repair your sliding door in New Milton?
Most sliding door problems come down to a handful of worn parts, and a repair is often far cheaper than a new door:
Before calling out anyone in New Milton for a door that will not lock, check whether the panel has dropped: if the hooks no longer meet the keeps, adjustment may be all it needs.
Where an older sliding door in New Milton 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.
- 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.
- Quoting from photos and a short video means many repairs can be priced without a visit, saving time and the diagnostic visit charge for straightforward jobs.
- A new lock gearbox or cylinder restores secure locking when a handle turns but the bolts no longer engage, without replacing the whole door.

How repairs work in New Milton
Send photos or a short video of the fault and we tell you the likely repair and cost before anyone visits. We then book a repair visit in the BH25 district at a time that suits you; most repairs are completed in a single visit, unless parts need ordering or a new glass unit must be made.
Do you need approval in New Milton?
Repairs are generally outside the Building Regulations in England. Any replacement glass we fit in a door is safety glazing, in line with Approved Document K, and if the door needs replacing rather than repairing, the controlled-fitting rules apply.
Repairs and upgrades to consider
- Misted unit replacement. A new sealed safety glass unit in place of one that has failed.
- Handle replacement. Replacing broken or loose handles, including key-lockable versions.
- Track repair or refurbishment. Repairing damaged track sections, or fitting a new track cover where the system allows.
Questions about sliding door repairs in New Milton
Is it worth repairing an old sliding door in New Milton?
Often, yes. New rollers, a lock gearbox or a track refurbishment cost a fraction of a new door. If the frame is twisted or the door fails on thermal performance, we will say so and price a replacement instead.
Is there a free survey for sliding door repairs?
No, our free survey applies to new doors and replacements only. Repairs are quoted from photos and a short video you send us, or after a diagnostic visit where photos are not enough. If a visit is needed, the diagnostic visit costs £95 inc VAT and is confirmed before we attend, so you know where you stand.
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.
Why won't my sliding door lock?
A sliding door that will not lock usually has a failed lock gearbox, a worn or broken keep, or a panel that has dropped so the hooks no longer line up with the frame. Forcing the handle can make it worse. Photos of the handle, the lock edge and the frame where the hooks engage usually show which part has failed.
