Sliding Door Repair

Sliding door service repairs the track, rollers, hinges, latch, and power mechanism on van side doors. On a delivery vehicle this door cycles hundreds of times a day and wear shows up as binding, dropping, or failure to latch.

Symptoms

The highest-cycle component on a delivery van

A route van's side door opens and closes more times per day than any other moving part on the vehicle. Rollers flatten, tracks wear, and the hinge assembly develops play, all of which shows up as a door that fights the driver.

It is worth fixing promptly. A door that requires a shoulder to close is both a delay at every stop and an injury waiting to happen.
