Our track repair service realigns and restores your system, preventing further damage and extending its lifespan.
Smooth Sliding Doors FL understands that perfectly aligned tracks are essential for smooth, secure sliding door operation. Over time, tracks can become bent, corroded, dented, or clogged with debris—causing doors to drag, derail, or fail to close properly.
Unchecked track issues accelerate roller wear and compromise safety.
We’ve restored smooth, secure operation to thousands of sliding doors—saving homeowners the expense of full replacements.
Track repair involves fixing or replacing the metal or aluminum channel (rail) that your sliding door travels on. A damaged or misaligned track can cause the door to stick, derail, jam, or become insecure — leading to safety issues and increased wear.
Look for signs such as the door dragging or scraping across the floor, the rollers coming off the track, visible bending or warping of the track, problems opening/closing smoothly, or water/air leaks through the frame.
Coastal homes face extra challenges: salt-air corrosion, sand and debris buildup in the track, heavy usage during hurricane season, and movement of the home or foundation can all contribute to warped or worn tracks.
In many cases we can repair the track by realigning it, removing debris, replacing worn sections or rollers, and smoothing the path. However, if the track is severely corroded, bent beyond repair, or the frame is damaged, a track replacement may be more cost-effective in the long run.
Typical track repairs can often be completed within 1-3 hours. If the job requires full track replacement, removing panels, or addressing structural frame issues, it may take a full day or require scheduling a second visit.
Costs vary depending on the size of the door, the material of the track (aluminum, steel, stainless), degree of damage, and accessibility. Minor repairs cost less; major replacements cost more — a detailed on-site inspection gives accurate pricing.
Yes. For situations where the sliding door is a security risk (off its track, broken, cannot close) we offer emergency or same-day sliding door track repair service in the Broward County and Palm Beach County area.
Maintenance includes clearing debris from the track regularly (especially after storms), lubricating the track and rollers with silicone or non-staining lubricant, checking the alignment and roller condition periodically, and inspecting for signs of corrosion or warping.
Consider replacement when: the track is rusted or perforated, the door panel no longer seals or locks properly, the frame is damaged or warped, or when you want to upgrade to a hurricane-impact rated system or a smoother heavy-duty track system.
