Why repair your sliding door in Kelso?
Most sliding door problems come down to a handful of worn parts, and a repair is often far cheaper than a new door:
If a sliding door at your Kelso 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 Kelso 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.
- 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 well-maintained, repaired door can give years more service, making a repair a sensible first step when the frame and glass are otherwise sound.
- Repairing or refurbishing a damaged track removes the dips and burrs that make rollers jump, which stops a panel coming off its track.

From photos to fixed door in Kelso
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 TD5 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 Kelso?
Repairs do not need a building warrant in Scotland. Any replacement glass we fit in a door is safety glazing.

Questions about sliding door repairs in Kelso
Is it worth repairing an old sliding door in Kelso?
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.
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.
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.
