From a mechanical perspective, the level of difficulty can vary depending on the door system's intricacy. Steps regarding the installation of our sliding door rollers are provided and all necessary parts are included. Those who consider themselves to be somewhat handy should find that adding the rollers to a basic sliding door system is quite straightforward. However, if the installation is more difficult custom automation systems, heavy doors, oversized doors, or complex tracking systems, professional assistance is recommended. The specialists can guarantee that the rollers are properly aligned, sufficiently fastened, and function optimally, thereby minimizing installation-related complications and maintaining the safety of the door system.

To maintain optimal function, regular maintenance is needed on heavy doo sliding door rollers. Perform a monthly check of the rollers for wear and damage such as cracks, flat spots, and loose parts. With a soft bristle brush, clean off any visible dirt, grit, and substances from the rollers and tracks that can hinder the smooth movement of the door using mild detergent and warm soapy water. Every 3-6 months, apply a light coating of lubricant on the bearings and moving parts to minimize friction and rust formation. In places with heavy use and harsher conditions, check the door more frequently. Make sure that all small problems are fixed so the system remains in an operational condition without bigger overhead maintenance cost problems in the future.
