I didn't think it was possible to get the cartridge out, but with the video convinced me it just might...and it did. Couldn't have done it without you.
There may be anti-lift blocks in the slot above your door that prevent you from lifting the door high enough to remove. They should be easy to move or slide the door to a position where they're not in the way. I learned this the hard way.
You have shown more than I've seen, since I had my 32yr old house built! I spent about 1/2hr adding screws to the top track and adjusted my rollers. I need to replace the old rollers soon. I noticed the builder missed 4 screws on the side and 1 screw on the top. After adding the screws, cleaning the rollers, I did manage to get the door to slide better. Still not perfect until rollers get replaced but good enough for now.❤🙂😇🥰. Also I noticed alot of play on my stationary door and I added a spacer. Everything is nice and snug now! Great info, the world needs to know in these uncertain times, between dangerous weather and bad guys!
This is BS. If it was that easy, any thief could do the same. There are anti-lift features in most doors. In mine you have to remove the stationary door first by unanchoring it and then remove the rolling one from the side where the stationary one was. Rolls perfectly now with the rollers from Lowes, same 30 year old door.
Excellent tutorial. But the rear roller on mine only has one hole for the screw. I got some replacement rollers ( both have a screw at the bottom and threads for the top screw) and track from Anlin. Both replacement rollers appear to be identical. Any thoughts? Another question. The lower screw appears to be maxed out. The door sits way high to compensate for the collapse track. Screw is stuck. It was that way when we moved in. Can not turn it either way
Hello. Can I use rollers 1-1/4 inch instead of 1-1.2? I installed rollers, but can not place the door on track. Original (other side) very easy placed their seat, but, a new on 1;1/4 does not want to go. I compared both ov sizes - the same
Should be able to turn the adjuster to the left to drop the door sash in the track so you can clear the bottom rail of the door. Maybe an old milgard door?
I have a sliding door that drags and it’s really hard to open or close. I have the screw and a hole at the top and bottom front and back. It’s a rental apartment so I’m not sure of the history. Can you tell me what I can do to make it easier to move?
My biggest gripe with all these videos. There are a ton of different doors with their own unique issues. It seems like every video pretends they're all the same.
Is there an industry standard on the roller plate? Or will I have to go down a long rabbit hole trying to figure out the manufacturer of my door from 1993? I didn’t put it in so I have no clue what brand it is.
Without the music I don't think I could have replaced my rollers... music is imperative for the repairing of roller on sliding door. Everyone knows this
Respectfully, your example is a brand new door. My door has been in place since 1982. Rolls but equals badly. Locks ok. Just awful scrape or squealing sound when opening it.
Should tell people how to do it properly if you are going to do videos on the topic. There is a block that is about 3 inches long that sits in the middle of the upper tracks that need to be removed first, If you pry up on the door as the master of this video says you will crack the glass and he is not paying for it.
Yep, just lift and out it comes. That’s exactly how it went for me. So easy. Now, I’ll go look up a helpful video on how to remove the 🤬door
Glad it worked out well for you!
@@americanwindowconcepts I think you may have missed the sarcasm.
Im done with the sliding doors just want a regular door.
Yeah I agree; the problem comes when your door is heavy duty and heavy!
@@americanwindowconceptsYou are an idiot and your video sucks

Extremely helpful! My sliding door has been horrible for years and this video helped me fix the problem. Thank you!
great job man

Looks super easy but unfortunately I can not get the door to clear the bottom track when I lift it up and out. Any ideas how I can do this?

Maybe a putty knife under the roller areas as your lifting and pulling out. Try that.
A putty knife under 4 pivoting wheels? Not easy.

OMG I so jealous of you@@kevinbuckel3833
How much is the labor to change wheels out?
Well done bravo👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thank you!
My door doesn't lift out like that what is the procedure for a door like that ?
Hard to say without seeing the door you have currently.
when roller is old,, how to release adjustment to remove door :-)

gereat vdieo, thank you!
What about the weather strip ?
What about a gap in between slide door and other glass when door is closed ?

Where can I buy these quad rollers?
Does the top need rollers on a sliding door?
No. Some doors are pre punched with areas for rollers, but it’s a simply a gravity slider so bottom rollers only.
I have holes in the front but I can see a flat or star or allen socket that lines up. Not sure how to lower the door to lift it out.
Should be able to turn the adjuster to the left to drop the door sash in the track so you can clear the bottom rail of the door. Maybe an old milgard door?
And if you can’t get panel outta frame due to improper installation.
Are rollers universal?
Can you replace a single with a dual roller and is a 1.5" better than a 1.25" given you've the clearance to reinstall a very heavy door? Thanks
Yes, you should be able to do that.

So easy!😀 unfortunately not all sliders are the same 😞
True, but the main rules apply for most vinyl slider doors.
My biggest gripe with all these videos. There are a ton of different doors with their own unique issues. It seems like every video pretends they're all the same.
Any idea on a legance 3 patio door type ddsg code: tri-k-36
Is there an industry standard on the roller plate? Or will I have to go down a long rabbit hole trying to figure out the manufacturer of my door from 1993? I didn’t put it in so I have no clue what brand it is.
Only one screw to fix this roller, it is easier but safe and not easy to be damaged again or something?
One screw to remove and set the roller. But it is house and supported by the sash frame.
First video I've seen where the track itself was taken out. Glad to know it can be. Thanks. This video needs a bit better camera work.
You lost me at pick up and pull the door out. 😂 Mine did not do that.
Try using a putty knife under the door simultaneously as you’re lifting and pulling the door bottom out of the track.
Did you even show how to get the door off?
Music during an instructional video is never helpful. Not everyone has perfect hearing.
Agreed. I was having issues as well with his voice vs music
Without the music I don't think I could have replaced my rollers... music is imperative for the repairing of roller on sliding door. Everyone knows this
I had no issues but can see how some people may not be able to concentrate.
Ventura
My door definitively does not lift out like that
Try running a putty knife ended the rollers of the door sash as you’re pulling the slider out of the track area.
Respectfully, your example is a brand new door. My door has been in place since 1982. Rolls but equals badly. Locks ok. Just awful scrape or squealing sound when opening it.
Is the door aluminum? If so, it may be slightly more difficult, but is doable
Annoying background musac , bad camerawork and absolutely No Way our doors will just "lift out" 😭😟

Only that my door doesn’t come up save the stupid instructions if you won’t do it right
Absolutely not. The door does not come out. Tried your technique. Are you kidding??
Not helpful. I'll try to find a better video from a professional
Why don't you do this on an old ass door that actually needs replacement so you guys can actually help somebody needing it
