My sliding door has started sticking, I turn the handle but very little happens. I'm able to waggle it and it opens up slight at the back so I can gt my fingers into the gap and it then pops open. Any idea of how or what I need to adjust or grease?

have a look at the bottom runner, this gets full of gack, scrape it all out and apply clean grease, not too much, just getting rid of the old muck will help.
Then, have a look at the top runner, give that a grease.
Then remove that little extra panel that runs horizontally behind the sliding door, there is a track in there that can get full of muck, especially if it starts to rust.
That should help loads.
Dont adjust till you have done all thosew bits.

Thanks for advice, I'll have a look

er to grease you will need......errrrr wait for it





Grease is the word is the word!!!

So now we know your favourite film Julie!

We were told by McGill not to grease it at all just clean out all the crap, it's the grease that makes the crap stay in there.

Just a thought.

mcgill is probably best listened to as he knows what he is talking about but if after the said crap as been removed and it still does not work then grease it.......cos nowt else will work

I grease the wheel, lots, and then a little on its runway, you've just got to clean it out routinely.
