Common sliding door faults we fix in Hay-on-Wye
Here is what usually goes wrong with sliding doors, and what can be done about it:
If a sliding door at your Hay-on-Wye home has started to drag, clean the bottom track thoroughly before booking anything, as grit alone can cause the problem.
Before calling out anyone in Hay-on-Wye 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.
- Adjusting a dropped or misaligned panel can cure draughts, rattles and a door that will not close fully against its seals.
- Repairing or refurbishing a damaged track removes the dips and burrs that make rollers jump, which stops a panel coming off its track.
- Misted sealed units can usually be replaced individually with new safety glass units, restoring the view and the insulation of that panel.

Questions about sliding door repairs in Hay-on-Wye
Is there a call-out charge in Hay-on-Wye?
Many faults can be priced from photos or a short video, so a visit is not always needed. If we need to see the door first, a diagnostic visit costs £95 inc VAT, and we confirm it before we attend. Repair prices include the visit to carry out the repair.
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.
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.
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.
