    I have a rental. The renter called up and said the slider door in master bedroom bathroom was stuck, misaligned, and would not adjust. I had no clue what I was going to do. Now I can go over there and fix it with confidence.
    Thanks for the education!

    My mate was adamant i’d need to cut a hole in the plasterboard to access the bolts. So glad I watched this instead. Thank you!

    Thanks so much for the video. My cavity door has been giving me grief for 10 years now and it's so hard to get anyone to do this sort of job. I am an older lady and fixed it myself using your video. Worked exactly like you showed.

    Sickunt bro, I just fixed my bathroom door after watching this. I had to flappy disc down an old 11mm spanner too access the adjusting bolts. FYI for any cuhs that need to do the same.
    Its smooth as silk, so satisfying after fighting the door for the last few days
    For real.

    If you can’t locate the screws for the filler panel, the screws may have been patched and painted. Look closely for an area that has been patched and painted over 👍

    Thanks for the clear instructions for adjusting the door horizontally. I have a slightly different problem with mine though.... Mine is running out of alignment vertically. The door has the style of rollers in your first example, but the door is rubbing on the outside upright at the top and is close to the upright on the inside. I am wanting to paint the door, but cant because the paint would all be rubbed off. Do you have any advise on how to align the door vertically?
