Sliding Glass Door Repair in Jupiter & Tequesta, FL - Rollers, Tracks, Locks & Glass
If you live in Jupiter or Tequesta, salty air, sand, and daily use can turn a smooth-gliding door into a two-hand workout. This guide explains what fails, how we fix it, and when to replace vs. repair—so your doors and windows work like new again.
Common Sliding Door Problems on the Coast
Sticking / grinding: Usually worn or seized rollers or a pitted track from sand and corrosion.
Door jumps the track: Bent track or misaligned rollers/adjusters.
Drafts or water intrusion: Failing weatherstripping, clogged weep holes, or misaligned panels.
Lock won’t latch: Worn latch/keeper or handle set; security risk.
Fogged glass: Failed insulated glass unit (IGU) seal, common in humid, sunny Palm Beach County.
Our Repair Solutions (What We Do)
Roller replacement & adjustment: Stainless or sealed-bearing rollers for coastal durability; precise height/leveling for a feather-light glide.
Track repair & caps: Burnish or straighten minor damage; install track caps to extend life and prevent future pitting.
Lock & handle replacement: Multi-point and patio locks, keyed options for lanai/pool security.
Weatherproofing: New weatherstripping, sill cleaning, and drainage tune-ups to cut drafts and moisture.
Glass replacement: Single, tempered, or insulated impact glass options matched to your frame.
Repair vs. Replace—How to Decide
Repair if the frame is solid and problems are rollers/track/locks—this fixes 80–90% of performance issues at a fraction of replacement cost.
Replace if the frame is structurally corroded, glass is widely failed, or you’re upgrading to impact-rated systems.
Local Tips for Jupiter & Tequesta Homes
Rinse tracks monthly to remove beach sand; vacuum, then wipe with mild soap.
Skip grease—use a light silicone spray on rollers/track after cleaning.
Check locks before storm season; misalignment can keep latches from seating fully.
Shade counts: UV exposure on east-facing sliders accelerates seal wear; proactive maintenance saves glass.
Windows Need Love Too
We also service window rollers, balances, locks, cranks, and screens—common issues in Jupiter Inlet Colony, Tequesta Country Club, Abacoa, and the Bluffs.
