Aluminium door repairs Randburg

Most sliding door repairs cost R450 to R950 for new rollers and a track service, with lock replacements running R450 to R1,200. A full service of a stacking door with new hardware can reach R3,500. Repair is almost always far cheaper than replacing the door.

Worn rollers are the cause in the vast majority of cases — the nylon wheels flatten or seize, and the door starts dragging on the track. Replacing the rollers and cleaning the track restores smooth, one-hand operation. Don’t keep forcing it: that damages the track itself.

Yes — handles, latches, cylinder locks, and even multi-point locking mechanisms are all replaceable parts. The pro matches the hardware to your door profile. If parts for a very old profile are discontinued, a retrofit lock kit usually solves it.

Cleaning and lubricating the track is safe DIY. Anything requiring the door to come off its rollers is a pro job — glazed doors are heavy, and dropped glass is dangerous and expensive. Roller replacement is quick and affordable for a professional with the right tools.

Glass in doors must be safety glass that complies with SANS glazing standards, so replacement is a glazier’s job rather than a general handyman repair. A handyman can handle all the hardware around it — rollers, locks, seals, and alignment.
