[@Diggerdave4]

Fast and to the point. Thanks for not wasting my time by being a slow talker and making me watch you do every pain staking step.

[@ozzymorrison8628]

U can speed up any video

[@haimause9797]

Ditto

[@debbielaclair1215]

Couldn't have said it better myself. Some ppl making these videos act like you live to hear them speak 😆 Thanks for a great video!

[@teodorachira1715]

Thanks for this video. I just follow the instructions that you showed and I fixed my patio door by myself. I can believe it. You just saved me few hundreds of dollars. Thanks again.

[@Chromer]

Right to the point 👉

[@BarfyMan_362]

You just saved me A TON of money on a house that needs a lot of repairs. It was fix the door or remove the entire “sun room”. So thankful you posted this!

[@kennethandersen6472]

This is an excellent You Tube presentation because the presenter is well-prepared, concise and he has excellent speaking skills. A fine educator and one who doesn’t waste a single word.

[@KenEasson]

thanks for the great editing and not talking so slowly! i wish all tutorials were as well presented as yours! thanks again not only for the accurate advice, but the quality of your productions.

[@cavtroopermunoz]

The best video on KZbin for this topic. My 80's huge sliding door is back on track thanks to you.

[@loriclark1771]

I need to do this today!!! All by myself.. come over and help.. I want to say and I'm going to yell this so everyone can hear THANK YOU FOR NOT HAVING ALL THE SMALL TALK JUST THE FACTS. It's not taking hours to get the info I need and I don't know all about your life too. Short and sweet.

[@loriclark1771]

Well got the stationary door out but the sliding door will NOT come out. I look to see if it was the rollers it's isn't . It's the 2 end pieces and such a tiny amount stopping me from lifting it out. I have had it calling someone to do it. It's 106 outside and way too hot for this girl .

[@7PEACEGIRL]

After watching your video I was able to remove the old rollers and replace them. I save money by doing it myself and I only cursed three times. Thank you.

[@staceylowrey5734]

Your videos are great and get to the point without a bunch of blah blah blah. Very precise.

[@richardallen468]

Thank you for sharing a similar style (AND VINTAGE), doors installed in our house, I (the Boss) had decided that she was tired of the noise and struggle with our four doors. I therefore begrudgingly looked for pertinent videos, since the majority are of apparently New unused doors, I felt that was an excellent reason to abandon the project before I even started! Thank you for your inspiration and giving my wife a great reason to say, “I told you that the doors were repairable”.

[@bwithers55]

Hallelujah! I did it! I cleaned out the door tracks, lubed the rollers, tightened the adjustment screws to lower the rollers, and reset the door! Thanks! -bw

[@555pinball]

Thanks to your video I got up the confidence to take down/out the door, but had to call a neighbor to help carry it outside. HEAVY! There was a ball of yarn wrapped around one of the roller assemblies. It now moves with the touch of a finger instead a full hand and shoulder! I'm surprised it didn't start a fire with all that friction!

[@jeffereymitchell5386]

the best video on youtube. directly to the point and step by step. Great.

[@adamragus6531]

Forgot to thank you for the video, I fixed my door for about $30 - had to replace the roller assemblies. Your video made it way easier than it would have been, thanks a lot!

[@kevinharkins3111]

Thanks for staying on topic, being prepared and just getting to the point. Super helpful and concise. Great job, I’ll be back to this channel for future projects.

[@bradwilson8079]

Aaron, thank you for the video. I fixed our door today, VERY HAPPY!! Saved me from calling someone to do it and having to pay them. 0 F-bombs for me!!

[@cowboygeologist7772]

Thanks for posting. With mine, the vinyl track on the bottom decided to brake last week. Now I have an idea what I may need to look forward to.

[@Spitfire1337]

Thanks! I was able to fix mine, I had one bad roller on both the "fixed" side and the slider side. So I just swapped the good one on the fixed side, for the bad one on the slider side. Sprayed some graphite lube for good measure and now I have a working slider! Free and took about 15 minutes, no f-bombs dropped on this repair.

[@chase774]

Great video! Love that you didn’t use the perfect scenario that’s often posted

[@SeacrestTv]

useful videos. clear tutorial it helps me to fix my sliding door and i save money for not paying for service to fix it.thanks keep making helpful videos

[@user-lf7en6rf8m]

Hey,, thank you, I literally watched your video, after I received a work order to replace the rolllers on and older sliding door, had some challenges, dropped 3 f bombs silently lol, but what a great feeling putting it all together and working perfectly. Thank you so much Phx az

[@katyatoland7425]

super helpful. cause i have same type of door and have been trying to figure out why it's doing this. Great video.

[@integra505]

Thank you for this video. Saved me hundreds of dollars, and I was able to make the door function better than when we moved in! Now that I know how to accomplish this, I have 2 more doors to fix. And your rating system was spot on. However, without your video, my "rating" would've been MUCH higher. Thanks again!

[@shirleysteckroat8029]

Great video righe YO yhe pointer no nonsence

[@ijgator]

Ours was a little bit more involved due to a set screw in the wheel casing but the instructions were spot on! Thanks for your help.

[@aprilpierce9850]

More specific than another video I watched on the subject. Precise, informative, and interesting. Well done. :)

[@josephgarrett7095]

Clear speaking, no wasted energy, thorough and complete. I’ll be looking for some of his other advice

[@davidgordon7721]

Love your delivery. Quick and to the point. Exactly the info I needed. Thank you

[@Rilo570]

Well Stated, and quickly stated. Without making the viewer have to slog through a whole bunch of extra video. Good job I’ll be watching more of your videos.

[@reydogmotor]

This is a Great repair tutorial. You answer all questions regarding how the sliding wheels are installed and how to remove them which I thought I would have to call a professional but now I have the confidence to do it myself. I have tall 8 foot door which I have been told needs to be done by a pro. I will tackle it now and get back to you.

[@James-ek9cl]

great vid, thank you. I turn apartments, but have a background in plumbing. So I learn a ton right here about other job duties. This video was very helpful

[@tarahernandez8327]

Thanks so much for this! My daughter and I were able to fix our sliding glass door with your excellent instructions (and yeah, those doors are _heavy_ dear lord)

[@louiserendon5538]

Thank you..explain it step by step . Takes some of the anxiety away.

[@gordymills]

Thank you thank you thank you!!! This is one that's been on my todo list for a while. I took the door off a little over a year ago, and cleaned up and lubed the wheels. This provided temporary relief, but the stickiness has returned. I couldn't tell how to get to the wheel assemblies to remove them. This will be incredibly helpful!

[@gordymills]

+Mr. Fix It Absolutely! Nice to have a solid list of video content as well :) Once of these days, I'm hoping to have a channel like this one... only where I learn as I go and make mistakes along the way

[@davidargy2933]

Dude, this is FANTASTIC. Perfect speed and amount of detail, and awesome video of the work you are doing. I love the F bomb scale, of course that's not enough for me, I usually have 2, just looking for the right tools.

[@jasonmartin7095]

Great video. I was able to pull my doors out and fix the sticking rollers thanks to your straightforward tutorial. Thanks!

[@jnich69420]

Just watched your video. My door was doing all of what you stated at the start of the video. I only had to go to step 1 because it turns out my rail system was just to clogged with mud, dirt and really don’t know what else. But after REALLY GETTING INTO IT the rails are clean and the door works.

[@christopherlane7602]

natural teacher this fella. now I get it.

[@chadc.1598]

Wow. Thanks. Following your guidance I felt confident doing this. You saved me a lot of money and it took less than an hour to fix. My door rolls like new. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@ronseunarine7927]

Great job, thank you very much. This will save me on replacing my patio door

[@richardashing7535]

Man I really appreciate that I don't know if it's the rollers but I learned a ton from you thanks a lot

[@PrinceBaka]

great video. Clear and succinct and no camera wobble. Love it.

[@hughmatchett8784]

Great video. Just what I needed to see saved me heaps of money

[@donaldbriske3455]

Thank you for taking the time to make this. Excellent work.

[@ncboyd]

Thanks for the video. Mine was a little different. Wood frame and they mounted from the bottom. Didn't have to take out the fixed door. No hardware at lowes, got them at home depot. Of course it started raining when I got the door off.

[@rosierangel9277]

Great job,,my husband was worried about having to replace the door and the cost. Thank you.

[@eljefegringo8725]

WOW. This video is Outstanding. Well narrated. Excellent visual examples and I like how he rates scale of difficulty. Easy for the do-it- yourself-er to follow. Plus where to get the replacement part and cost.

[@williamroberts8344]

Did exactly as you said/showed and the door is like new. Thanks!!!!

[@CT_Yankee]

One point you forgot to mention - the bottom track may not be perfectly perpendicular to the jamb. When adjust the rollers one should bring the door almost to the closed position and make sure that the edge of the door is parallel with the jamb. If not, adjust the roller height so that it is.

[@familytang4797]

Aaron : thank you very much with your excellent instruction, I will fixed my sliding door this Weekend, I very HAPPY.

[@user-bw9wk8cc6v]

You are amazing!!! Just grabbed a screwdriver and that fixed the problem. Thanks man!!!!

[@plekang1]

Clear, concise and easy to follow. THANKS! Buuuut ... what's up with the 36 people that did NOT like this? (hater's gunna hate! :)

[@RedDevilRaspberry]

This video is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thank you! I think my issue is pet hair and dirt in the rollers. I’ll remove my final sliding door the way you’ve suggested, give the track and rollers a good clean and replace the door. I’ll let ya know how it goes. Thanks again!!

[@Daniels656993]

My sliding glass door is 21 years old. Last winter during minus 10c I noticiced that it was skipping, making more noise and harder to open and close. This summer I removed the door, removed the rollers and noticed that the track was extremly dirty. So I cleaned it and noticed that there were uneven dents in it. I couldn't figure out how to replace it so I decided to even it out by sanding it over with a 12 inch board. Once that was done, I cleaned the rollers. Made sure they were still viable and then reassembled everything and now my sliding door works like new.

[@joejoseph3078]

Great Video. Thorough content with nice clear images of what parts are being discussed, and a video that was succinct and to the point. Made me decide to subscribe. I love fixing stuff myself but I usually need some guidance, so with all the content you cover in other video, I am sure I will be back soon.

[@mikefasenmyer5259]

I'll be doing this project later this week. Thanks again for a very helpful video

[@privatedata9802]

Hi Erin. Thanks man that's all it was. As soon as I adjusted them they slide like butter. Of course I also cleaned them and applied some jigaloo nano. Cheers Chris

[@melissalinnemann2677]

Mr Fix It , let me say one thing..............YOU ROCK!!!!

[@KarstenBusby]

This is probably the best how-to video I have ever seen.

[@jessikahicks1058]

Thank you so much for this video!! I was at my wits end with trying to figure this out myself and with other videos. The older door and the problems are more like mine than any others I found. Now off to get new rollers!! Thanks again!

[@MaybeDave]

You take something so mundane and make it interesting to watch. I predict 100k sub in no time. Keep em' coming, Mr. Fix It!

[@craiglarson2346]

I got the sense I was watching a younger Tim Toolman Taylor! Thanks for sharing the experience!

[@movinmikec]

Well done video, great pace, liked the fbomb rating system. My door's sliding better than it has since we moved in a year ago, thanks!

[@lenthomas2886]

Gave me he incentive to fix mine. Didn't need to take the whole door a part but it was very helpful.

[@carolsimeone4531]

Well presented, very thorough and to the point! Thank you! I'm feeling fairly confident that I can handle this and get rid of the annoying sticking sliding door problem! The F bomb rating... genius!

[@nunyabiznez1025]

Be sure you get someone to help you; that damn door is pretty heavy!

[@BibleExposition2022]

Thanks for the info. My slide door can be removed by lifting it out. The fix panel is permanently stay. I was able to change the wheels on my sliding glass door. It took more than an hour today. I felt good of the accomplishment because of your info. Both wheels cost little more than $12 at Lowes. The mallet hammer did help. Thx

[@ajaxlibby]

Thank you so much! Your video was very easy to follow, and you explain everything as you're doing it. You made all my stress a very easy fix.

[@alansmith7626]

if you think about it, you can slide the side frame out of the way with the door installed--I did one sliding glass door last evening, will do another today

[@darrengbsn]

Quick, accurate and informative. I'm actually looking forward to tackling my door tomorrow. Thanks

[@timalves322]

Watching you gives me the confidence to give it a go on my door.

[@65csx83]

Top notch video; direct, clearly represented info. Only thing I wish would have been included is a method for lubricating those rollers to keep them running smoothly. A method other than removing the doors.

[@GotTwins29]

The F Bomb rating system is hilarious and should be used world wide! You should patent it haha

[@tubbers20]

If I had an F-Bomb jar it would be full of money. :^)

[@lousminetrastillo3257]

Paused video to explain to my wife the cleverly accurate system and she looked at me and went back to sweeping I’m glad someone else appreciate good shit

[@Donna-vh5ym]

I immediately subscribed because of that... and then watching the video it's great content too.

[@fireball6d641]

Thank you! Fixed my door it works great. It was old like yours, but didn't need to take out the fixed door. A few taps of the mallet and the bottom part of the frame came loose and i could pull out the rollers.

[@joshuavanetten]

Just enough information and video to instill some confidence to try it myself. Hopefully a project that should take a few hours doesn’t turn into days 😅

[@CJ-ss7vn]

Great video!! Roughly how long did the fix take ?

[@user-lf7en6rf8m]

Absolutely fantastic, thank you, im doing this install tomorrow morning. Thank you 😊

[@tvfrance3667]

Thanks for the video, commentary with enough detail is very important good job.

[@crossfitcervus]

This video was great! It solved my problem and was hilarious. Definitely gained a follower. Great job.

[@jodieknighten9243]

Thanks for this video! My sliding door is so bad now my shoulders hurt. I also have an older aluminum door. So helpful!

[@patriciahernandez2132]

Straight to the point!! Easy to follow your instructions! Thank you!

[@slinkyfisher2262]

I know this is one of your old vids but it just led me through successfully fixing an external sliding door that was 'one of those jobs' I've been putting off for 2 years. 15 bucks and some aluminum door origami and it's good as new.

[@ObsessionoftheMonth]

I have that exact same door but have not disassembled it yet, what rollers did you get? does that large screw at the bottom of the frame actually hold the roller in place or just the frame.

[@chocoholicmom8]

Love your concise video. So, so helpful. Now I'm going to try it myself!

[@damonmccole2098]

Thanks ive been off work hurt can afford new door this was great info

[@sandraschidlmeier5989]

Good job. My door is the same so your video helped me very much. Thanks 😊.

[@rolandmatosjr.5058]

That was great!! Straight to the point and great video! Love your rating system🤣🤣

[@SuzanneOlsson]

Look how neat and organized his shop is! Respect.

[@brycepiontek161]

Your the only youtube video that had to remove the fixed pane like I did thankyou

[@raymondthomas6062]

Very helpful video. Fixed my glass door smoothly!

[@terragy2k03]

Thanks for the great instructions. Fast, clear and direct to the point. I will try to fix mine. If unsuccessful, how much does it normally cost to hire someone to fix this?

[@Chadnmurfreesboro]

Fantastic fixit video, sir. Keep up the great uploads

[@surfdude7575]

Just what I needed. Thank you, sir. I'll be attempting this soon.

[@WoofWoof2012]

Excellent. Tomorrow morning’s project. But I have a question - when you whack the frame with the mallet, doesn’t it ‘move’ the glass?

[@MrFixItDIY]

Just depends on the type of door you have. You don’t have to remove the frame if you can get the roller out without it

[@benitarice3554]

Thank you for getting to the point and doing it quickly. Also thanks for the visual and the tip to try Home Depot.

[@johnoliverio8729]

The slider wheel adjustment can be on the side of doors, for example Andersen doors. Good video.

[@dennisnoonan1604]

Well done. Will try it as soon as the weather warms

[@thepatiodoorguy1001]

Nice video. I've never seen anyone slide the side rails up like that. I will keep that in mind if the bottom rail doesn't come off. Interesting but unnecessary. Those rollers should slide out the bottom without much resistance. The sides of the rail are smooth. That door is dual glazed. It should have tandem rollers. I'm surprised it didn't have them already. Prime-line D-1845 would work nicely, although in general, it's probably good advice to use an exact replacement if you're not sure which better roller will replace it.. It's always a good idea to replace both.

[@JWMcLay]

That was really clearly delivered and concise. Thank you very much from Melbourne, Australia. Gotta love the F bomb rating!

[@williamsills3565]

Fist vid of yours I've watched. Like your format, especially the f bomb system

[@mikeberry5534]

Excellent Video ! Thanks . Mike (Ontario Canada)

[@condoose5591]

Thanks MrFixit DIY. You answered every question I had.

[@kelley7860]

Do you have a video on how to fix the rollers for a sliding glass door. I don't know how to determine if they can be fixed or is it going to have to be replaced

[@brapp181]

Thanks dude! 2 minutes in and I got mine fixed. You are great!
