I've had problems with my patio ...Great product, fits like a glove!This Solves the ProblemKeep your doors rolling smoothly. Sliding glass doors should slide. When they don't, they become see-through walls. If your door bumps along the track or jumps it completely when you open and close it or is just hard to pull, there is a good chance you can fix it with a few simple tools and a bit of muscle. The mechanism that lets the door slide freely along the track is simple and restoring it to its original condition is usually simple as well.

The type of repair you need to perform depends on the symptoms your door exhibits.

tri fold patio doors costThere should be a uniform gap of between 1/8-inch and 1/4-inch between them. The most common cause of a dragging or stuck door is low clearance.

Insert the screwdriver into the hole in the edge of the door with no clearance. Turn the adjustment screw clockwise to raise the door until you get a gap of at least 1/8-inch. Repeat this procedure on the opposite edge if necessary. Remove dirt and debris from the track with a wire brush. With the door in the closed position, scrub the surface of the track paying special attention to the raised wheel guides. Any obstruction on the track will prevent the wheels from operating smoothly. This should be done as soon as the door pulls roughly or feels like it is rolling over gravel when opening or closing. Clean the loose debris with a vacuum cleaner or broom. Move the door to the fully open position, scrub the exposed track with a wire brush and remove any loose dirt with a vacuum cleaner or broom. Remove the door from the track. Open the door about half way, lift it straight up and pull the bottom toward yourself until it is free of the track. Keep a firm grip on both edges of the door while you do this.

Sliding glass doors are kept in place by the track on the bottom and a simple channel guide at the top of the frame. Once clear of the bottom track, the door will drop out of the frame completely. Lay the door flat on a stable surface. Inspect the guide wheels. Rotate both wheels while inspecting them for cracks, flat or worn spots and dirt. Small rocks or bits of debris often become trapped in the wheel's guide channel and keep it from rolling smoothly. Remove and replace a worn, cracked or defective wheel. In most cases, this is done by loosening and removing the wheel assembly mounting screw on the bottom of the frame. Spray the guide wheels liberally with lubricant. Cleaning and lubricating the wheels noticeably extends their useful life and improves the door's ability to slide. Clean the track with a wire brush and remove any loose debris with a vacuum cleaner. Measure the length of the guide track from one side of the door opening to the other. Use a hacksaw to cut a length of track cap to fit the door opening.

Set the track cap, open channel down, over the existing guide track. Tap the cap lightly into place with a rubber mallet. Hammering too hard will flatten the top of the cap. Start at one end and work slowly toward the opposite end. Replace the door only after the entire cap is securely in place.

Our cap engineers suggest: Check the tightness of clamps after the first week of operation; then again every 6 months. Clean the track on sliding windows and twist windows to remove any dirt. Application of a dry silicone, such as Camie 999 in the track will allow for easy operation. Pushbuttons and lever arms can be lubricated every 3 to 6 months with lithium grease or equivalent. Washing, Waxing and Paint Care Wait 90 days before first wash or wax Based on the recommendation of our paint manufacturers, DO NOT wash or wax your new cap or tonneau for the first 90 days. Our paint suppliers make this recommendation to allow their paint to fully cure and harden; they make the same recommendations for new car and truck paints. Because of our rapid delivery schedules, LEER products are often delivered just days after they are painted. Waxing has the potential to damage the fresh paint until it is fully cured.

After 90 days, we suggest routine washing by hand with a mild car soap and soft rag or sponge. Apply a quality paste wax designed for automotive finishes twice a year. If you ever need to deep clean the surface due to oxidation, we suggest using products designed for fiberglass restoration, readily available at RV and marine outlets. Additional care and maintenance tips Do not polish your cap or tonneau with a dry cloth. To prevent hard-water spots, use a cloth to dry the cap after washing. Do not use an ice scraper on the cap or the rear door glass. Brush off snow and ice. Use touch-up paint to repair any nicks or scratches in the paint. Clear fingernail polish can be used as the clearcoat touch-up. Wait until the repair is fully cured and use rubbing compound and polish to regain the proper finish. Use a UV protection product on all vinyl, plastic and rubber components to extend their life. These products should not contain petrochemicals, petroleum distillates or silicone oils.
