Pocket Door Repair - Professional service by JDM Sliding Doors

Expert Pocket Door Repair You Can Count On

JDM fixes pocket doors that stick, jam, jump the track, or wobble, the in-wall sliders other companies often turn down. Because the track, rollers, and guides hide inside the wall cavity, these are some of the trickiest doors to diagnose, and a door left broken can chew up the wall, the panel, and the trim around it.

We work the full range of pocket door issues. Sticking and jamming usually come from track debris, worn rollers, or a door that slipped its guide wheels. A track out of alignment inside the wall needs careful adjustment without tearing up the drywall. Worn rollers get replaced with the right spec for smooth, quiet travel. We also repair handles, locks, and edge pulls, and patch wall damage a failing door has caused.

We also install new pocket doors for new openings and replace panels that are warped, damaged, or dated. We look at your space, recommend the right size and style, and run the whole job from framing changes to final trim. We're licensed and insured, and every project starts with a free, no-obligation estimate.

"After I made an appointment I decided I was going to try and do it myself. Michael FaceTimed me, walked me through what to do, then call back if I still needed him. An hour later I called him and he was at my house in 35 minutes. Some of the best service I've ever received from a contractor. He finished in two hours and went above and beyond. The same-day service was incredible. Absolute professionals."

"After a couple of hiccups with getting our repair done by someone else, our technician Richard showed up on time — actually half an hour earlier than the appointment time. He was very polite and got the job done in the time he told us it would take. Our glass door now glides smoothly and is able to lock again. I highly recommend Richard, he represented his company very well. I will definitely consider using them in the future!"

"David, thank you so much for taking the time to explain everything to us. He was so patient, and I appreciate him doing a clean and awesome job. He was respectful of my home and cleaned up after the work was complete. Now my door slides like new, quiet, and smooth. Again, thank you David."

Our Pocket Doors Process

  1. 01
    Inspection & Diagnosis

    We work the door, check the visible hardware, and get into the hidden track and roller system inside the wall to find the exact cause. Most of the trouble lives where you cannot see it.

  2. 02
    Repair Plan & Estimate

    We explain what is wrong, lay out the fix, and give you a free written estimate covering parts and labor before we start. You approve it first.

  3. 03
    Expert Repair

    We make the fix, which may mean realigning the track, replacing rollers, adjusting the guide, repairing hardware, or trimming the panel, using methods that keep wall damage to a minimum.

  4. 04
    Testing & Cleanup

    We slide the door back and forth several times to confirm smooth, quiet travel, test the lock and latch, dial in any final adjustments, and leave the work area clean.

How It Works: Fixed in 3 Steps

1

Call or Submit

Call (954) 689-2155 or request an estimate online. We confirm flat-rate pricing upfront, with no hidden fees.

2

Same-Day Technician

Our licensed tech arrives with common parts on the truck. Most pocket doors jobs are completed in a single visit.

3

Fixed Right the First Time

We test the repair, walk you through the work, and make sure everything is running smoothly before we leave.

  1. 01

    Off-Track or Jumped Roller

    Pocket door rollers hang from an overhead track inside the wall. When a roller jumps or the door jams, we reach the track through the overhead panel or the header to re-seat or replace the hardware.

  2. 02

    Track and Header Repair

    We handle bent tracks, broken roller brackets, and warped headers. This can call for partial drywall removal and reframing around the pocket to set things right.

  3. 03

    Soft-Close Mechanism Replacement

    The soft-close dampener keeps the door from slamming. It usually wears out after 5 to 8 years of heavy use, and we swap in a new one.

  4. 04

    Stuck or Won't Latch Issues

    Usually the door face has swollen from humidity, or the latch inside the jamb has drifted out of line. We can fix most of these without opening the wall.

  5. 05

    Pocket Door Installation

    We install new pocket door kits and convert hinged doorways into space-saving pocket doors, framed and hung for smooth travel into the wall.

⏱ Same-day service available based on capacity. Call to confirm dispatch.

Pocket Door Repair: Common Questions, Answered

Here are straight answers to the questions we hear most about pocket door repair.

What are the most common pocket door problems?

The most frequent issues we see are doors that stick or jam partway, doors that have jumped off the track and wobble when moved, worn-out rollers that cause grinding or rough operation, and loose or broken handles and edge pulls. Many of these problems develop gradually and worsen over time if not addressed.

Can you fix a pocket door without tearing out the wall?

In most cases, yes. Our technicians use specialized tools and techniques to access the track and roller system through the door opening or with minimal wall access. If limited drywall removal is necessary, we keep it as small as possible and can patch and finish the area as part of the repair.

How much does pocket door repair typically cost?

Costs vary depending on the nature of the problem and the parts required. Simple roller replacements and track adjustments are at the lower end, while more involved repairs requiring wall access or track replacement are higher. We always provide a free estimate before starting so you know the exact cost.

Can you install a pocket door where a regular door currently exists?

Yes, we regularly convert standard hinged door openings to pocket doors. This involves modifying the wall framing to create the recessed cavity, installing the pocket door frame and track system, hanging the new door, and finishing with new trim. It is a great way to reclaim floor space in tight areas.

How long does a pocket door repair take?

Most pocket door repairs are completed within one to three hours depending on the complexity of the issue. Roller and hardware replacements tend to be on the shorter end, while track realignment or replacement within the wall cavity takes longer. New installations and full replacements typically require a full day.

Should I repair or replace my pocket door?

Repair is usually the best option when the door panel is in good condition and the issue is mechanical, such as worn rollers or a misaligned track. Replacement makes more sense when the door panel is warped, cracked, or severely damaged, or when you want to upgrade to a different style or material. Our technician will give you an honest recommendation based on the condition of your door.
