For the door that's not broken — just wrong

Plenty of sliding doors don't need parts; they need a professional hour. The panel sits slightly tilted, so it scrapes at one end of its travel. The latch needs a lift-and-wiggle to catch. There's a whistle in a north wind and a bump halfway along the track. Apollo's alignment and tune-up service, from $109, is the systematic answer: we adjust roller height until the panel is dead plumb, dress and lubricate the track with dry PTFE (never grease, which binds with grit into grinding paste), re-time the lock keeper, and cycle the door until it moves with one finger.

What the tune-up covers

It's a genuine multi-point service, not a squirt of spray lube. We inspect rollers for wear and corrosion, check the track for gouging and standing-water damage, clear the weep drainage, verify frame squareness, adjust panel height and lean at both roller assemblies, align latch to keeper, tighten handle and hardware fasteners, inspect and seat weatherstripping and the interlock seal between panels, and finish with a glide-and-lock test across the full travel. You get a plain-English rundown of anything we found — including honest notice when a part is on borrowed time, and roughly how much time.

The salt-air maintenance habit that saves doors

Near the coast, sliding doors don't fail suddenly — they corrode gradually, and an annual tune-up is what interrupts the process. Rinsing salt from the track, restoring drainage, dry-lubricating the running gear, and catching a corroding bearing before it seizes can double or triple the life of rollers and rails. For oceanfront condos and homes east of US-1 we recommend yearly service (twice yearly for direct-exposure balcony doors); further inland, every couple of years keeps things smooth. Regular customers get scheduled reminders so it never becomes the 2-hands-to-open door again.

The honest entry point

A tune-up is also the smart first call when you're not sure what's wrong. It's our least expensive service, and it puts a technician's eyes on the entire door system. If adjustment solves it — and for doors that are stiff-but-moving, it frequently does — that's all you pay for. If we find the real problem is flat-spotted rollers or a worn track, the tune-up findings become a written quote with photos, and the decision is yours with zero pressure. Either way, the door leaves the visit better than we found it.

Alignment & Tune-Up FAQs

What's included in a sliding door tune-up?+

A full-system service: roller height and lean adjustment, track cleaning and dry lubrication, weep-hole drainage clearing, lock and keeper alignment, hardware tightening, weatherstrip inspection, and a complete glide-and-lock test — plus a plain-English report of anything wearing out.

My door works but it's stiff. Is a tune-up enough?+

Often, yes. A tilted panel, dirty track, and dried-out running gear account for a lot of stiff doors, and adjustment plus a proper track service restores them. If the stiffness turns out to be worn rollers, we'll show you and quote the fix on the spot.

How often should a sliding door be serviced in coastal and inland markets?+

Annually for homes near the coast, and twice a year for balcony doors with direct ocean exposure — salt is the main enemy. Inland, every one to two years keeps a door gliding smoothly.

What lubricant should be used on a sliding door track?+

A dry PTFE (Teflon) lubricant. Oils and grease attract sand and grit, forming an abrasive paste that accelerates wear — it's one of the most common DIY mistakes we undo. We use dry film products designed for door tracks.

Can an alignment fix my lock that barely catches?+

Very often, yes. A latch that needs a lift or slam to engage is the signature of a dropped or tilted panel. Re-leveling the door on its adjusters brings the latch and keeper back in line — no new lock needed.
