How to replace rollers, wheels on sliding glass patio door the easy way.

[@jtotheb-ip2hh]

Fixed my in-laws' slider door today in less than an hour after watching your video. Thanks a million!!! And well done.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

I’m glad my video helped!

[@ihar9975]

I was close to calling a sliding glass door repairman. I'm usually a diy dude and pretty handy at most things. My glass doors are humongous so I was intimidated not to break the glass or worse. Your video helped me sooooooo much and I really appreciate it. Bought 4 rollers at Lowe's for two of my doors for $18 bucks. Thanks again.

I had calling a sliding glass door company for a quote ($425 was the quote). I'm pretty handy at most things but, glass doors are intimidating and expensive to replace. Your video may be a few years old but, it is the best one I found. I removed the rollers went to ACE and $20 and a couple of hours work it's done works perfectly. I really appreciate it. Thank you..🔨🪛🍺

If you have only one person changing rollers, this is another great way to do it. Thanks for sharing, what it took you 5 years to figure out. A good man for sure!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Thank you.

[@Rocadamis]

This was the perfect video at the perfect time. I had watched other videos and they all involved taking the door out. My problem was that our door is huge and far too heavy for me to lift out by myself (I've got no one to help me). So, I did this technique yesterday and it turned out great. I must say it was a little scary taking the rails off, but following these instructions gave me the confidence to do it. Thanks for a great tutorial!

I’m glad I was able to help!

[@yohad81]

Thank you. I watched your video as I was going to replace wheels on a patio door tomorrow. I have always taken the door off and you just taught me how to do it better.

[@rich.e.1786]

I have an 8ft tall slider door and it was getting difficult to open and close. I wasn’t sure what rollers I’d need so I took one off and purchased new ones at Home Depot. It’s not a difficult job at all and it slides like new. Thanks so much for this video. It saved me a headache.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Glad I was able to help

[@meganbowman4747]

I agree with everyone else... best video I have seen for this project, hands down. Thorough yet concise instructions, showing the entire step as its being explained all in real time. The perfect tutorial. I am soooo glad I found your video. You're awesome.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Thank you. I have about 16 years of experience in this trade, I will be sharing more how to tips and tricks in my future videos to help people out!

[@Trigger-xw9gq]

Great tip, but you are wrong about using the silicone spray, as that too will attract & hold debris. No lubricants should be used at all, best to crinkle up a small piece of wax paper and rub all contact areas.

[@davide6844]

Thank you so much I just replaced rollers on sliding door using your instructions I tried before and none of the videos on KZbin had the type of doors I have. It was very easy without taking the door off. My roller assembly was different it had tabs that stuck into square holes but I just pried the frame enough with a screwdriver and it popped out! I went to ace hardware to find a new assembly but they were all wrong but they had a 2 pack of just the wheels the same size I popped the old one out and the new one in and didn’t have to find the exact one. Once again I thank you 🎉

Watching this video motivated me to replace our worn glass door rollers. Worked like a charm. Keeping the rubber gasket in place when reinstalling the frame back onto the glass was the most challenging part. Awesome time saver! Thank you.

Worked perfectly on my aluminum door from the mid 1980s. Thank you.

[@jorgecampa57]

This is by far the best video I have watched on sliding glass door wheel replacement. I recommend lubricating the wheel assembly before the installation to prolong the life of the bearings.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

I’m glad I was able to help!

[@jodyberry]

Big BIG thanks for this tutorial!!! I had tried fixing my slider a few months ago and another video said I needed to take out the stationary glass AND then the slider. I tried that but then was afraid of possibly breaking the glass. So a few days ago I called a glass guy and he said about $200 to replace the rollers. I had set up an appointment but then happened to find your video. I followed all instructions and was able to replace both rollers for $15! And with a feeling of accomplishment! All the tips helped too, especially making sure the door is lined up with the wall so that it closes correctly. One thing I would add to all your tips (that helped me at least) was when I'm hitting the frame to come off, I was hitting real hard and it wasn't going any further. So I started hitting it slightly further up the frame towards the top and that did it! Thanks again!!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

I’m glad I was able to help !

[@2breal91]

Thank you so much. Last time I completely removed the door and it was a nightmare this technique looks so much better!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Glad this helped!

[@user-ou3fv2uz5d]

Thanks a bunch for taking the time to record and post this video! I followed your instructions and it worked great! Once I pulled out one set of the wheels I found a matching one at a local hardware store and bought two sets in order to replace both sets on the lower side of the door. I also noted missing rubber door stops, one of which was jammed into one of the wheels. I found similar ones at the local hardware store and silicon sealed them into place. The door slides so easily now that I swear it's power assisted! The new rubber stoppers mean that the door stops exactly where it should and does not impact the metal frame, now the latch even works better as the closed position is correct. Again, many thanks for taking the time!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

You are welcome and I’m glad it worked for you!

[@psyclepath1964]

Guess what I'm doing tomorrow! 👍 I'd watched another channel do it the hard way, and I was dreading it. Now I'm all giddy like a school girl 🤣 and looking forward to it!

[@waynechou81]

This is the first comment I ever left on utube cuz it's absolutely a life saver!!! I had already started hammering away at the tracks and thought about just whacking everything because there's just no way to take the 40 years old aluminum door off to replace rollers. I had no idea what rollers were inside so I follow this video and first removed the side frame then used long nose pliers to pull out the old rollers. Used a pry bar to prop up the door to make it easier to pull out the old rollers. The old rollers were Prime Line D1525 with 1 1/2 inch rollers. I actually used D1552 with 1 1/4 inch tandem rollers which I just push into place. Put everything back and the door works like new! I am sure the contractor and his crew would appreciate it when they start remodeling my kitchen in 2 days lol! 6 thumbs up!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

I’m glad I was able to help!

[@bslenter]

I almost started removing both my sliding door and my fixed pane to do the roller replacement (as some other videos showed) but then I decided to look on KZbin a bit further and came upon your video. This shortcut worked perfectly for me and saved me a ton of time. It also saved me from having to get help from a friend to lift our huge door. Can’t thank you enough. New rollers are just what our slider needed - WD-40 wasn’t cutting it anymore. The old rollers developed flat spots and were caked with dirt and dog hair. Works so much better now.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

I’m glad it worked for you!

[@XroorX]

I was going through cans of wd40 or risking a torn rotator cuff shutting my sliding doors! Replacing the rollers this week hahahaha

[@rodneyvailoces]

Thank you very much for sharing this video it really helped me replace the wheels on my door. i tried one time removing the whole door and can't even budge it from its place, it was too heavy for me.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

I’m glad this video helped!!!

[@michaelj3533]

I watched, I conquered,. I've been putting this off for dome time. Wish I'd seen this video when it came out. I do agree with the problem of the rubber gasket. What I found to be very easy was to pull gasket out from door put on glass the frame will easily go around the gasket when you push it back in place...thank you very much for an easy to follow video.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

I’m glad this video helped!

[@kaoiken1]

Thank you for posting this. I wasn’t able to pull the wheels because they seem to be rusted to the door or this door had an extra screw. However, I was able to lube the wheels which was great because they were frozen on both sides.

[@carlsmith7679]

Great video, thank you! Worked on my 1992 vintage aluminum slider and now it glides like new.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Glad my video helped!

[@dickthompson1604]

Great solution! I could not remove my door due to the way they constructed frame! Thanks!

[@alansmith7626]

I doubt you will ever see this but I had to try. I just followed you vid and did 2 doors, I have 5 in my house but these 2 are hi mileage..the first door I was a tad worried, but everything went fine, I just realized you have to be careful with the U channel rubber seal gets back in place, I used some wd40 to help the glass and seal slide back in and everything went perfectly. I had to back up a few time to make sure that seal stayed in place but was Perfect ending! Those wheels been in there for 38 years and I hadnt used the door for a couple years because I did not want to take the entire door out, LOL...then I see vids where they take the entire door out then do the exact same thing you can do with the door still in! Blows my mind! I cannot thank You enough!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

I’m glad my video was helpful! Also, glass cleaner is better than spraying wd40 on the gasket, glass cleaner will dry out while wd40 will stay on the gasket and the frame may pull of if you pull on frame too hard.

[@edwardfrancisslaytonjr.9702]

I do handy man stuff for wealthy people. One of my guys was like, "I'm 'bout to hire a sliding door company to make my door slide more easily," and I was like, "Wait, lemme get on you tube and I can probably save you a lot of money." Sure 'nuff. This video comes along. Made my week!$!$! THANKS!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Glad this video helped!

[@williedjs]

A huge thanks for this video. I’ve been needing to do this for at least the last two years. More recently my glass sliding door feels like a lead weight. I had a handyman come out and look at it and he said I just needed to clean my track and didn’t charge me anything for the service call. So I did just that like I had in the past and obviously that wasn’t the solution. After securing the two replacement wheels from Home Depot along with a silicone spray, I was able to knock this job out in about 45 minutes. I was also lucky to have just the right size block of wood to separate the frame from the glass which was quite challenging. A few good strikes with my rubber melet and it came loose. My glass door slides as smooth as ice now and I saved myself a few hundred bucks in the process thank you again.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

You are welcome! I’m glad I was able to help!

[@someusername121]

FYI to people: you may have a door like mine where the roller is screwed in to the bottom moulding piece and it can't be removed without taking the door out (and taking the bottom piece off) even though the latch-edge moulding slips off like it does in this video. You can only barely see the screw head when the latch-edge was removed. If you follow the video and the roller doesn't *easily* slide out with a little bit of prying...it's screwed in. It's a two person job to safely get the panels out too if it comes to that.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Yes, there are some doors where the roller is screwed in through the bottom rail, I don’t remember if I mentioned it in the video. I will do a separate video on that type of doors. Thanks.

All the other YT videos I've seen have you removing the door. I can't remove ours since the lip is too big on the inside, and the stationary doors in the way on the outside. I love that you showed us how to just remove the side molding, genius! Our door now opens and closes with one finger, and since we are trying to sell our house, that is a very big deal. Thank you!!!! 👏

[@troletti]

I have the same setup but there's an additional screw that holds the wheels from the top. It's covered by the glass. Your video got me 99% of the way there... Thanks!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Oh, yeah, I’m familiar with that type of doors, they are not as common but that screw through the frame sure makes it more difficult. You will have to take the slider out and remove bottom rail unfortunately.

[@RedThunder0000]

I used this video to clean and grease my rollers rather than put in new ones. It worked, was pretty easy, took 20 minutes. Hardest part was the seal didn’t have glue in spots and didn’t want to sit right so 5 min messing with that. Now we have the opposite problem, it was hard to move and now it slams shut and we are worried about the glass breaking lol. I would say it’s fixed lol

Thanks for posting. I’m trying to find the handle and lock assy. The ones at lowes and Home Depot don’t work. I wish I could find the Mfg that made these no markings at all. Unit built probably the 80’s.

[@robertbelden1584]

@@mickbrown815 You may want to try either Amazon or EBay for your patio door handle and lock assembly. I recommend measuring the length, screw hole distance apart, as well as the latch that goes on the frame. You should be able to find one just about identical. Not sure if you live in the FL area, but a lot of the original builder-grade patio doors installed were from a company called Nu Air. You also may be able to see a sticker/label or engraved brand name somewhere on your doors- also, you sometimes may see it on the screen slider as well. Hope this helps and good luck! Robert

[@roadglassandmore9064]

[@firstmkb]

Perfect video - not too long, but covered the important parts. The only thing I wasn't completely clear on was whether you were using silicone spray on the metal side of the track, or the weatherstripping. Thanks for posting!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Mainly on weather stripping as it is a main friction point . There is no real need to spray the track ( but doesn’t hurt anything either if you want to spray it) with new wheels as they roll freely on top of the track.

[@privatename3621]

Compared to the solidly rusted rollers I'm replacing, the ones this guys is pulling out look practically brand new!

[@roadglassandmore9064]

The wheels have ball bearings inside, and they wear out and start making noise or stop rolling very well, that’s the main problem in my area, we don’t have a lot of wet weather here where I live.

Couldn't take my 20 yr old door apart at the panel,, so I had to look at other vids to see how to take out the door. Had to take the rollers out to see who had them, as I couldn't tell what it looked like without taking them out. Since I needed it right away I found them at Homedepot. 1 1/4 in with the Rounded hole for the screw. 8/12/20

I just last week completed this same Aluminum Sliding Door Repair. Unfortunately I had not seen this video or it would have gone much smoother. Removing the door = simple.

You are welcome, glad I was able to help!

[@MrMattDat]

Great video for a very common problem. I would only add to fully remove that side frame then clean & lube the gasket (a wipe down with silicone or soapy water works great) before reinstalling the frame will ensure the gasket is not pulled or torn. Evaluate the rail the wheels ride on as well (take a kitchen scrub sponge and clean your rail! Dirt gets packed on the rail making even new wheels roll a bit rough). If your rail has flat spots, Prime Line sells a snap on repair rail that works great!

good for an aluminum frame door but if you have a pvc or "vinyl" frame im not sure this would work. door has to come out I think. at least thats what i did and it worked fine. get a helper to help lift it and its not that bad. also i it had a 1 1/8 size roller wheel and I tried a 1 1/4 (larger rollers) and it worked much better.

My patio door had a different design, the side bolt was also for adjusting the roller (and door) height, and should actually not be removed. Instead I had to split open the frame around the glass, which exposed a screw above the roller mechanism, to release it

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Is your door white in color by any chance. There are some doors that are different by a design, I will try to post more vids on different style doors!

​@@roadglassandmore9064ours is white... help!

[@stevejanovec1786]

Going to try this on mine hope it works. Mine looks close to this one mine has a hex head screw instead Philip screw

[@roadglassandmore9064]

It should work.

[@karend.9218]

Can I pop the door out, lay it down and remove the wheels without taking the frame off? Thanks for posting this video. I feel empowered to try it.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Yes, you can , but taking door out is not always easy, and in some cases you will still have to remove bottom frame/rail to get the wheels out.

[@jianliu7516]

Thank you for the great video. I will do the same thing as you did because I have same door has roller problem, very hard to open and close. I saw some videos need to remove the door out first, that is too much work for one person due to the door is very heavy. Your video just perfect and easy way to change the rollers. Thank you very much for sharing.

[@roadglassandmore9064]

Im glad I was able to help! I used to take every door with roller problem completely out for 5 years , until I went to work for different glass shop and one old timer showed me this trick

[@jianliu7516]

@@roadglassandmore9064 I tried to do today, but I had hard time to pull the old roller out even I jack up the door to the air. The old roller stuck inside won't get out. I try when days off.

[@dooooooval904]

Saved me from taking it off the tracks. Thanks bro

[@mariontoffan1943]

You are marvelous. Your easy step by step manner is a treat. After seeing what goes into fixing a sloping glass pane - I will eventually call the glass company. Right now I have a small piece of cork in the top of the track stopping that gap effect. Not the best but if I got out the rubber mallet and then played around with the weather stripping I would need a new door. Thanks anyway for a beautiful job explaining what needs to happen. And I couldn't use silcone spray to have the door slide smoothly as the door that tilts would slide and lock me outta the house. M.

Great video! I have an even easier fix. I watched a bunch of videos and was stressing about taking door Off and removing frame etc. I had to use my whole body to open and close the door. While trying to adjust the wheels, I finally noticed that the wheels wern't on the track at all Check that first! DUH ! I did clean and silicone the track. Okay not be able to open with one finger but now it's his one hand!

[@markdemedeiros3239]

[@roadglassandmore9064]
