Why repair your sliding door in Hexham?
Most sliding door problems come down to a handful of worn parts, and a repair is often far cheaper than a new door:
Where an older sliding door in Hexham 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.
Before calling out anyone in Hexham 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.
- Misted sealed units can usually be replaced individually with new safety glass units, restoring the view and the insulation of that panel.
- 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.
- Where a repair is not worth doing, for example because parts are unavailable, we say so plainly rather than fitting parts that will not last.

Rules for sliding door repairs in England
Like-for-like repairs such as new rollers, locks, handles or adjustment are not building work under the Building Regulations in England. If the whole door is replaced, it becomes a controlled fitting and the replacement rules apply.
Common repairs and upgrades
- Lock and gearbox replacement. A new mechanism when the handle turns but the door will not lock.
- Adjustment and service. Re-aligning panels, cleaning tracks and checking seals and drainage.
- Roller replacement. New rollers for each sliding panel, restoring a smooth, quiet action.
Questions about sliding door repairs in Hexham
Do you repair sliding doors in Hexham?
Yes. We repair sliding doors in Hexham and across Northumberland, including nearby Prudhoe. Send photos or a short video and we will tell you the likely fix and cost before booking a visit.
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.
Is it worth repairing an old sliding patio door?
Repairing an old sliding patio door is worth it if the frame and glass are sound and the parts are available, because a few new rollers or a lock can restore it for a fraction of the cost of replacement. If the frame is failing, the door is single glazed or parts are discontinued, replacement usually makes more sense.
What photos should I send for a repair quote?
Send a photo of the whole door from inside, close-ups of the handle, the lock edge and the bottom track, and any label or marking on the frame or glass spacer. A short video of the door opening and closing is especially helpful. Tell us roughly how old the door is and what it is doing wrong.
