Broken patio door in North York: we dispatch 24/7.
North York is roughly a 30-minute run from our Mississauga shop — less if a technician is already in the area — so a truck is usually on site the same day.
Emergency board-up, security and make-safe first — permanent repair scheduled after.
Broken patio door glass in North York
A cracked or shattered pane is the patio door call we get most. The frame, rollers and lock are usually fine, so only the glass unit is replaced — in the door you already have.
Made safe first
After a break-in we come out overnight — to Willowdale, Don Mills or anywhere else in North York — clear the glass and board up the opening so the house can be locked. A crack that still holds waits for a daytime visit.Measured for a new unit
Patio door glass is tempered, usually a double-glazed sealed unit. The new one is made to your panel's size, with Low-E and gas fill if the original had them.Fitted into your existing panel
One visit to measure, one to fit. With the panel out, we check the rollers and weatherstrip too.Don't slide a cracked panel: tempered glass can break all at once. Keep it closed and call us.
Aluminum or vinyl — what the frame changes about a patio door repair in North York
Most sliding patio doors in North York houses have either an aluminum frame or a vinyl one. The parts that wear out are the same kind of part on both. The frame decides how those parts are adjusted, which of them wear out first, and at what point the door is no longer worth repairing.
Fix a dragging or sticking patio door in North York
After a break-in, or if the door will not lock or the glass is broken, call 800-522-6825 — the line is answered 24 hours and we come out overnight to board it up. For a door that drags, grinds, jumps the track, drafts or has fogged between the panes, tell us what it is doing, whether the frame is aluminum or vinyl, and whereabouts in North York you are. A photo of the bottom corner of the sliding panel helps us bring the right rollers.
Common questions about patio door repair
How much does it cost to fix a patio door?
It depends on which part has failed. Weatherstrip, a lock adjustment and a track cleaning are at the inexpensive end. New rollers cost more, because the panel has to be lifted out to fit them. A replacement sealed glass unit costs the most, because it is made to the size of your glass. We quote the cost of the visit on the phone and the repair once the door has been seen. If the repair would cost a large part of the price of a new door, we tell you that as well.
Should I lubricate the track on my patio door?
Clean the track, but do not grease it. Oil and grease hold on to grit, and grit is what wears out rollers. Vacuum the track, wipe it with a damp cloth, and if you want to use anything, use a dry silicone spray on the rail. If the door still drags on a clean track, the rollers are the problem, and no spray will fix them.
Can you replace the rollers on a patio door?
Yes, and it is one of the most common patio door repairs we do. The sliding panel is lifted out of the frame, the old rollers are taken out of the bottom rail, and rollers of the right size and weight rating are fitted. The panel then goes back in and is adjusted until it runs level. Rollers are not universal, because each make of door uses its own housing. The make or series of your door, or a photo of the old roller, helps us bring the right part.
