Older Santee is single-story and two-story tract housing from the 1960s through the 1980s, with original aluminum patio doors on aluminum track that have worn-flat rollers and grooved track. Steel tandem rollers and a stainless track cap are the standard fix. Sky Ranch, built on the hills above town, added hundreds of single-family homes and townhomes with vinyl sliders, and Weston, which opened in 2017 across from West Hills High School, has 415 newer homes with builder-grade rollers under vinyl doors that will need upgrading as they age. Mobile home and condo communities along Mission Gorge Road and Magnolia Avenue add plenty of standard sliders too.

Santee questions
The slider in our 1970s Santee tract home needs two hands to open. Is that rollers or track?
Usually both. After fifty years the steel wheels have worn flat and the panel is dragging its bottom rail on an aluminum track that the old wheels have grooved. We fit steel tandem rollers, snap a stainless track cap over the grooved section and adjust the panel height. Most of these doors go back to a one-hand slide in about 45 minutes per door.
Our Weston home is only a few years old. Why is the patio door already sticking?
New tract doors ship with light-duty builder rollers, often nylon wheels, and a heavy vinyl panel wears them faster than the door's age suggests. Dust from the hills grinds in too. We swap in steel ball-bearing tandem rollers that fit the door, clean the track and reset the lock, and the door slides like it should.
Can you fix the screen door on a Santee slider too?
Yes. Screen doors ride on spring-loaded rollers with tension screws at the corners, and on the older aluminum doors here the rollers are usually worn or the frame is bent from being forced. We replace the screen rollers and re-track the door, or install a new standard-size screen door if the frame is past saving, often on the same visit as the patio door rollers.
