Keep Your Door on Track with Professional Track Repair

The track is the foundation of your sliding glass door system. When it's damaged, corroded, or clogged with debris, your entire door suffers. A compromised track can cause your door to stick, jump, grind, or refuse to close properly—creating frustration, security concerns, and even potential damage to other door components.

At Precision Sliding Glass Repair, we offer expert track repair and full replacement services to keep your sliding glass door moving smoothly across South Florida. Whether your track is dented from impact, corroded by salt air, or simply worn from years of daily use, our skilled technicians have the tools and expertise to restore perfect function.

Track problems are among the most common sliding door issues we encounter in the region. The combination of sand, debris, and coastal humidity creates a perfect storm for track deterioration. Sand particles act as an abrasive, wearing down the track surface and creating rough spots that impede roller movement. Moisture promotes rust and corrosion, particularly on aluminum tracks exposed to salt-laden air near the coast.

We offer both track repair for minor damage and complete track replacement when the damage is beyond repair. Our technicians will assess your specific situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution. In many cases, a thorough cleaning, straightening, and resurfacing is all that's needed. For severely damaged tracks, we install high-quality replacement tracks that are precision-fitted to your door frame for optimal performance and longevity.

Our Specialties

Track Repair & Replacement Services

Comprehensive track solutions to restore your sliding glass door to smooth, reliable operation—no matter the damage.

Track Cleaning & Restoration

Deep cleaning to remove built-up debris, sand, grime, and corrosion that impedes door movement. We restore smooth track surfaces using specialized tools and techniques, then apply protective treatments to prevent future buildup. This service is ideal for tracks that are dirty or lightly worn but structurally sound—often all it takes to restore effortless gliding.

Track Straightening & Realignment

Bent or dented tracks are carefully straightened and realigned to restore proper door operation. Our precision tools ensure your track is perfectly level and true from end to end. Whether the damage was caused by impact, settling, or years of heavy use, we bring the track back to its original profile so your rollers can travel smoothly without catching or jumping.

Full Track Replacement

For tracks that are beyond repair—severely corroded, cracked, or warped—we provide full replacement with high-quality materials. We carefully remove the old track, prepare the threshold surface, and install a new track that is precision-fitted to your door system. Our replacement tracks are selected for durability and compatibility with South Florida's coastal conditions.

Threshold & Sill Repair

The threshold and sill work together with the track to create a weather-tight seal and stable foundation for your door. We repair or replace damaged thresholds and sills to improve both door operation and weather resistance. A compromised threshold can allow water intrusion, pest entry, and energy loss—problems our thorough repair service eliminates completely.

Know the Warning Signs

Signs Your Track Needs Professional Attention

Your sliding door track endures constant wear and tear—supporting the full weight of the door panel while guiding it back and forth thousands of times a year. Over time, this takes a toll. Here are the most common signs that your track needs professional repair or replacement:

If your door sticks, catches, or requires significant force at certain points along its travel path, the track surface is likely damaged in those areas. Dents, flat spots, or raised burrs in the track create obstacles that rollers struggle to pass over. A door that makes grinding or scraping noises is often dragging on a corroded or debris-filled track that's no longer providing a smooth surface.

Visible rust, pitting, or discoloration on the track surface indicates corrosion that will only worsen over time. In South Florida's coastal areas, salt air can accelerate aluminum oxidation significantly. If you notice standing water in the track channel after rain, the drainage weep holes may be clogged or the track may have settled unevenly, both of which require professional attention.

A door that wobbles or seems loose as it slides may have a track that has widened or warped, allowing the rollers to shift laterally instead of tracking straight. This not only makes the door difficult to operate but also puts stress on the rollers and can lead to additional component failures. The sooner you address track issues, the less likely they are to cascade into more expensive repairs.

Protect Your Investment

Maintaining Your Track for Long-Term Performance

Once your track has been repaired or replaced, proper maintenance will help it last for years to come. We recommend keeping the track clean by regularly vacuuming or brushing out debris. Even a quick weekly pass with a small brush or vacuum attachment can prevent the buildup that causes most track problems in South Florida homes.

A monthly wipe-down with a damp cloth followed by a light application of silicone-based lubricant will keep your door sliding smoothly and protect the track surface from premature wear. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or petroleum-based lubricants on your track, as these can attract more dirt and actually accelerate deterioration over time.

If you have pets, be extra vigilant about keeping hair and dander out of the track channel—pet hair combined with humidity creates a sticky buildup that's tough on rollers. For homes near the beach, more frequent cleaning may be necessary to combat sand accumulation that blows in every time the door is opened.

Our technicians are always happy to share specific maintenance tips tailored to your door type and location. We believe that empowering our customers with knowledge is just as important as performing quality repairs. When you choose Precision Sliding Glass Repair, you're getting more than just a fix—you're getting a partner in keeping your sliding doors in top condition for the long haul.
