Revamp your sliding glass patio door track that has been corroded or damaged with a Large screw-on Track Cover that is effortless to install. All you need to do is detach the patio door, snap the sill cover onto the affected track, screw it in, and reattach the door. With this, your patio door rollers will glide seamlessly and noiselessly, just like a new one.
A few years a workman was moving our fridge out through the sliding doors and cracked the track that the sliding door rolls along. I purchased a track repair kit that clips over the broken track, and that worked for a couple of years but I knew it would not last forever since the underneath track was plastic and was cracked, and so sooner or later it would break.
Well, it did break and so the clip on metal "fix it" kit would not stay in place.
I purchased this track for my solid wood, 8 feet wide, Crestline door (that is very heavy) and in less than an hour I had removed my door, removed the old plastic track (who ever thought a plastic track for a door that weighed 70-80 pounds was a good idea, anyway?), and installed this new track.
I had to cut off about 3 inches of this track and my dewalt sidegrinder did the trick in about 10 seconds. Then I installed this track inside the existing base, using stainless screws. It works perfectly!
It has been years since this door opened smoothly so we are loving it!
Only complaint: It would have been nice if they had included screws with it, and would have been nice if the screw holes were beveled so that the screws sit flush, but neither impacts the operations of the door.. Dan. Charleston, SC. Mon Apr 06 2026
