However, these doors endure constant use and exposure to MO's climate conditions, which inevitably leads to wear and mechanical failures. Understanding the common problems that affect sliding doors helps homeowners recognize when professional repair is needed and what solutions will restore proper function.
The most frequent sliding door issues we encounter in Des Peres, MO fall into several categories: glass damage, roller and track problems, lock and handle failures, and weather seal deterioration. Each of these problems presents unique challenges and requires specific expertise to repair correctly. Our technicians have repaired thousands of sliding doors throughout MO and understand exactly how to diagnose and fix each type of issue efficiently.
Glass problems range from obvious emergencies like shattered sliding door glass to less urgent issues like foggy or cloudy glass caused by seal failure. When sliding door glass breaks, the security risk is immediate – your home is exposed to intruders, weather, and pests. Foggy glass between panes indicates the insulated glass unit has failed, which significantly reduces energy efficiency and visibility. Both situations require professional glass replacement using properly sized, tempered safety glass that meets MO building codes.
Roller and track issues cause the grinding, sticking, and difficult operation that frustrates so many Des Peres homeowners. Sliding door rollers are engineered components that bear the full weight of heavy glass panels – often 100 pounds or more. Over time, these rollers wear down, become contaminated with debris, or break entirely. When rollers fail, forcing the door creates additional damage to the track system. Our sliding door roller replacement service uses premium steel or nylon rollers rated for decades of smooth operation.
The track system guides your sliding door's movement and keeps it properly aligned. Bent sliding door tracks, accumulated debris, and corrosion all interfere with smooth operation. In coastal areas of MO, salt air accelerates track deterioration significantly. Our track repair services include straightening, cleaning, lubrication, and when necessary, complete sliding door track replacement with corrosion-resistant materials suited to Des Peres, MO's environment.
Lock and handle failures compromise both convenience and security. A sliding door lock that won't engage leaves your home vulnerable. Broken handles make daily use frustrating or impossible. These components endure thousands of cycles over their lifetime and eventually wear out. Our technicians carry replacement locks and handles compatible with all major sliding door brands, enabling same-visit repairs that restore full function and security.

We replace all types of sliding door glass including single pane, dual pane insulated units, tempered safety glass, laminated security glass, and Low-E energy efficient glass. Our emergency service responds to shattered sliding door glass within 30 minutes in Des Peres. We measure precisely, source glass that matches your door's specifications, and install with proper glazing techniques that ensure a watertight, secure fit. All replacement glass meets MO safety and energy codes.
Cracked glass might seem like a minor issue, but cracks spread over time due to temperature changes and door movement. What starts as a small crack can become a shattered panel without warning. We recommend replacing cracked sliding door glass promptly to avoid emergency situations and potential injury from broken glass.
Worn or broken sliding door rollers cause grinding noises, difficult operation, and door misalignment. We stock rollers for all major manufacturers including Milgard, Andersen, Pella, Marvin, and dozens more. Our technicians remove the door panel safely, extract the old roller assemblies, install precision-matched new rollers, and adjust the height for optimal track engagement. Premium rollers we install are rated for 100,000+ cycles of smooth operation.
Signs your sliding door rollers need replacement include: the door requiring excessive force to move, grinding or scraping sounds during operation, the door jumping or catching as it slides, visible damage to rollers when inspecting the bottom of the door, and the door sitting unevenly in the track. Addressing roller problems promptly prevents secondary damage to tracks and frames.
Damaged, bent, or debris-filled tracks prevent proper door function and accelerate roller wear. Our sliding door track repair service in Des Peres, MO includes thorough cleaning to remove accumulated dirt and debris, straightening of minor bends and dents, lubrication with appropriate track lubricant, and replacement of severely damaged track sections. For doors with extensive track damage, we offer complete track replacement using heavy-gauge aluminum or stainless steel tracks.
Track problems often develop gradually. Homeowners adapt to increasing difficulty without realizing the track has deteriorated. If your sliding door requires more effort to open than when it was new, track issues are likely contributing. Professional track repair or replacement restores effortless operation and extends the life of other door components.
A malfunctioning sliding door lock compromises your home's security. We repair and replace all lock types including mortise locks, surface-mounted locks, multi-point locking systems, and keyed locks. Our sliding door lock repair service addresses issues like locks that won't engage, latches that miss the strike plate, broken lock mechanisms, and worn key cylinders. We also install security upgrades like jimmy-proof locks and secondary security bars for enhanced protection in Des Peres.
Beyond the primary lock, we inspect and repair auxiliary security features including foot locks, security bars, and pin locks. A comprehensive approach to sliding door security addresses all potential entry points and vulnerabilities.
Broken, loose, or outdated sliding door handles affect both function and appearance. We stock handles in various styles and finishes to match your door and home décor. Our handle replacement service includes removing the old handle assembly, checking and repairing any damage to the mounting area, installing the new handle with proper alignment, and testing lock engagement. We carry handles compatible with all major sliding door brands used in MO homes.
Handle problems often indicate underlying issues. A handle that's difficult to operate may signal lock misalignment, frame warping, or other problems. Our technicians diagnose the root cause rather than simply replacing parts, ensuring lasting repairs.
Damaged screen doors let insects in and detract from your home's appearance. We repair torn screens, replace broken screen door rollers, fix bent frames, and install new screen doors when repair isn't practical. Our screen door services include re-screening with standard fiberglass, pet-resistant, or solar screen mesh depending on your needs. We also repair and replace screen door handles, latches, and closing mechanisms throughout Des Peres, MO.
Screen doors endure significant wear from daily use, pets, and weather. Rather than living with a damaged screen that doesn't close properly or has visible tears, professional repair restores full function at a fraction of replacement cost.
