About this service
Rollers are the small wheels located at the bottom of your sliding door that allow it to glide across the track. When these wear out or get clogged with dirt, the door becomes heavy and difficult to slide. You know you need new rollers if you hear grinding sounds or if the door drags on the frame. Replacing them is a common way to make an old, heavy door feel like new again. Exact pricing confirmed free on the call.
