Sliding Door Alignment

A door out of alignment binds and leaks air. We level the panel, adjust the rollers, and true it up in the frame. Across Jacksonville and the surrounding 70-mile area, this is one of the calls we get most — and one of the most satisfying to fix.

Signs you need sliding door alignment

If any of these sound familiar, it's time to call. Waiting usually makes the repair bigger and more expensive.

• Uneven gap along the frame
• Door binds at the top or bottom
• Latch won't line up
• Light or air leaks around edges

Our sliding door alignment process

We keep it simple, transparent, and quick. Here's exactly what we do:

1. Diagnose why the panel is binding or sitting unevenly
2. Safely re-seat the panel on the track if it's off
3. Adjust the roller height on each side to level the door
4. True the panel square within the frame
5. Confirm the latch and keeper line up
6. Lubricate and test for a smooth, even glide

Repair or replace? Why repair usually wins

We'll always give you our honest recommendation. If a repair will get you years of smooth operation, that's what we'll suggest. If replacement truly is the smarter long-term choice, we'll tell you that too — and we install as well.
