Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my pocket door sticking or hard to slide, and what can you do to fix it?
A pocket door can become hard to slide for several reasons: misaligned tracks, worn or damaged rollers, debris or buildup in the pocket cavity, a warped or inside-frame door edge, or the door hanging too low or dragging. At Pocket Door Expert, our technicians start with a full assessment: they check the track alignment, inspect and replace rollers if worn, clean the cavity and track path, and adjust or realign the door so it glides smoothly. By addressing both immediate friction issues and underlying alignment or wear problems, we restore smooth operation and help extend the life of your door system.
No — while all mechanical door systems make some sound, squeaking, grinding or rattling points to wear, misalignment, or missing lubrication. Common causes include worn rollers, dirty or dry track, loose mountings or misaligned guides. In our repair service we will inspect the rollers and track, tighten or replace loose components, apply proper lubrication, replace worn parts, and ensure that the door is properly guided within its frame. This eliminates noise and also reduces stress on the entire door mechanism, helping it last longer.
Yes — our technicians are equipped to handle most types and brands of pocket doors. Whether your door is wood, glass, metal-framed, single or double panel, sliding into a wall cavity, we cover a wide range of systems. We also work with many common manufacturers and retrofit older or custom systems by sourcing appropriate hardware components. If you’re unsure about your specific setup, just contact us — we’ll diagnose the system, explain whether parts are required or a full replacement is advisable, and proceed accordingly.
The time required depends on the specific problem. Many issues — such as replacing worn rollers or cleaning and lubricating the track — can be resolved in 1–2 hours. More involved repairs (e.g., replacing an entire track, re-hanging a door, or accessing a difficult cavity) may take longer. In most cases you do not need to leave your home; our team works with minimal disruption. We book a convenient time, bring all necessary tools and common parts, and aim to finish efficiently while keeping your daily routine intact.

Preventive maintenance can greatly extend the working lifespan of your pocket door and reduce unexpected failures. We recommend:

  • Periodically checking the door for smooth operation and listening for unusual sounds.

  • Cleaning the track and cavity area from dust, lint or debris every few months.

  • Having the rollers and hardware inspected annually (or sooner if used heavily).

  • Avoiding slamming or forcing the door if it’s sticking — that stresses parts.

  • Addressing any sagging, misalignment or dragging immediately rather than delaying.
    When you schedule a repair with us, we can also discuss a maintenance check-up service to keep things running smoothly year-round.
