Sliding Glass Door Repair in Lemon Grove

Lemon Grove is a small East County city off SR-94 with homes that mostly date from the 1920s through the 1960s, roughly half owned and half rented. Most of its patio doors were added in postwar remodels and are now original aluminum sliders on worn track, which is why Lemon Grove homeowners and landlords call us.

Yes. Track & Roller Co. repairs sliding glass doors in Lemon Grove, CA (ZIP 91945).

Homes and sliding doors in Lemon Grove

Lemon Grove grew up around its citrus groves and the rail line, and much of the housing went up in the 1940s and 1950s, with 1920s bungalows closer to Broadway and 1960s ranch tracts on the hills toward La Mesa and Spring Valley. The patio doors are the classic 1960s and 1970s aluminum type, often added with a family room or covered patio, with single or tandem steel rollers on bare aluminum track. Those are repaired, not replaced: new steel tandem rollers and a stainless track cap bring back a one-finger slide. Small apartment buildings along Broadway and Lemon Grove Avenue add balcony sliders that managers fix between tenants.

Getting to you in Lemon Grove

SR-94 runs along the north side of the city with exits at Lemon Grove Avenue, Massachusetts Avenue and College Avenue and Broadway, and SR-125 crosses the east end. Broadway and Lemon Grove Avenue meet at the Lemon Grove Depot trolley stop on the Orange Line, home of the Big Lemon, the town symbol since the 1920s. Civic Center Park, with the Parsonage Museum and the H. Lee House, is just up the hill, and Berry Street Park serves the southwest neighborhoods. From central San Diego it is 15 to 20 minutes out SR-94, and we are often already working between La Mesa and Spring Valley jobs.

Lemon Grove questions

Our Lemon Grove house was built in 1952 and the slider came later. Can you still get rollers for it?

Almost always. The aluminum doors added to Lemon Grove homes in the 1960s and 1970s came from a handful of makers whose roller housings are still made today. We measure the old roller, match the wheel size and housing shape, and fit steel ball-bearing tandem rollers. If the original was a single-wheel roller we usually upgrade to tandems so the weight is spread across two wheels.

The patio door on my Lemon Grove rental jumps off the track when tenants slam it. What is wrong?

A door that jumps the track has either worn rollers that let the panel drop and wobble, a bent or grooved track, or a missing head stop and anti-lift block at the top. We replace the rollers, cap the track with stainless and reset the head hardware so the panel stays put. It also makes the door harder to lift out from outside, which tenants and landlords both appreciate.

Do you also fix the bypass closet doors in these older Lemon Grove homes?

Yes. The 1950s and 1960s houses here have bypass closet doors on a top track, and many were swapped for mirror doors in later remodels. They drag or come off when the top rollers crack or the bottom guide breaks. We replace the rollers and guides, straighten or replace the track and rehang the panels, usually on the same visit as the patio door.
