(OP) User ID: 46874483  United States09/10/2022 09:45 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | My little brother had the end of one of his fingers chopped off by the sliding glass door in the house we grew up in when he was 5. 30+ years later, he still refuses to go near sliding glass doors. Quoting: Hiram's Apprentice bless his little heart. sliders glass doors can be very dangerous to kids and big dogs. |

All sliding doors. $10.00 fix from a "wheel shop"?? What is a wheel shop?(lol) Is it one size fits all? I just say, "it's for a sliding door"? Does the door need to come off to install it? |

User ID: 80346963 United States09/10/2022 09:53 AM  Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I just replaced the latch and wheels on a 40 year old pella door. Latch alone was over $250 for Pella parts. Bottom of the door had rotted out and needed to be replaced as well. Great when they work but having a strange house with 5 doors on the back is overkill.
