When a sliding door doesn t work right the problem is often that the rollers have derailed so first check to be sure they re fitted onto the track properly.
Sliding glass doors are kept in place by the track on the bottom and a simple channel guide at the top of the frame.

Repair parts are easily installed.
Once clear of the bottom track the door will drop out of the frame completely.
For repairs to hinged patio and entry doors please see how to repair a door.
Some simply push into holes while others attach with a screw or two.

If a pin or roller hole is enlarged or the door is cracked a replacement part may not anchor securely.
If the door is badly damaged replace it.
Buy a repair part with a flange that can be screwed to either side of the hole.
