Door repair and installation specialists
Keep every entrance working as it should.
A sliding door should move freely, close properly and lock securely. Worn rollers, damaged tracks, panel alignment and ageing hardware can interfere with everyday use.
We work with existing aluminium door systems and new installations, explaining practical repair or replacement options according to the condition of each opening.

When doors stop working properly
Understand the problem before replacing parts.
Similar symptoms can have different causes. Checking how a door moves and closes helps establish whether its rollers, track, locking hardware, frame or seals need attention.
Heavy or noisy sliding
Roller wear, dirt in the track or uneven load can make a panel difficult to move.
A door that scrapes or jams
Track damage and alignment problems can create friction at particular points.
Locks and handles that won't engage
Misaligned catches and worn mechanisms can affect secure closing.
Gaps, draughts or water entering
Seals, drainage openings and panel alignment may all need checking.

Common questions
Useful answers about aluminium sliding doors, repairs and new installations.
Request an estimate ↗Can you repair a sliding door that is difficult to open?
Many sticking or heavy sliding doors can be assessed for roller, track and alignment faults. The available repair depends on the door's condition and suitable replacement components.
Do you work with existing aluminium doors?
Yes. The Sliding Door Clinic works with repair and servicing enquiries for existing aluminium door systems as well as new installation enquiries.
Which aluminium door types do you work with?
Our services cover aluminium sliding, folding, stacker, shopfront, pivot and shower door systems, although the exact work available depends on the model and components.
When is replacement better than repair?
Severe frame damage, extensively damaged tracks or unavailable compatible hardware may make a replacement more practical than a repair. The condition should be assessed before deciding.
Can you help with cracked door glass?
We handle glass replacement enquiries for suitable door systems. Avoid using or forcing a door with unstable or cracked glazing until it has been assessed.
What should I send when requesting an estimate?
Include your location, door type and a description of the fault. A full-door photograph and clear images of the affected track, lock or glass can also be helpful.
