Pocket doors are unique features in a home that offer homeowners many benefits. They are a type of sliding doors that tuck neatly into a compartment hidden between the walls rather than swinging open. In this way, they can provide homeowners with benefits such as privacy and room division as needed, but they take up far less space than traditional hinged doors. In addition, these doors are available in numerous styles that range from traditional to modern. If your pocket door has become damaged recently, setting up professional pocket door repair service is a smart idea.

The Challenge With Repairing a Pocket Door

With most types of doors, the entire door including the frame and the hinges or sliding mechanism are in full view and are easily accessible. With a pocket door, however, a portion of the frame and sliding mechanism are concealed from view and are not accessible to you. Making a repair to this type of feature can be challenging when the area that is damaged is located inside the wall. Rather than tear away the wall to access the damaged area of the door, professional repair service from an experienced contractor is a better option.

What a Contractor May Do

There are several different types of damage that are common with pocket doors. The actual door may become damaged, and this is most often due to an accident or some type of trauma to the door. The sliding mechanism may also become damaged, and the door may not open or close fully when the mechanism is damaged. Depending on the severity of the damage and the type of damage, the door or the sliding mechanism may need to be replaced. When the damage is too significant or when it affects both the door and the sliding mechanism, the entire pocket door may need to be replaced. The contractor will assess the damage and will provide you with options for repairing or replacing it.

Why Work With a Professional

While your goal may be to repair your broken pocket door, you do not want to damage your wall or frame in the process of repairing it. A professional has the skills, tools and experience necessary to repair this difficult-to-access feature in your home with minimal or no damage to other features in the home. In the event the drywall or other features do need to be altered to reach the interior portion of the door, a professional contractor will be able to repair this as well. Your home will be restored to its former condition with a fully functional pocket door after the service is completed.

Pocket door repair can be tricky, and it is not a type of repair project that you want to complete on your own. Regardless of the type of damage that your door has, reach out to the repair specialists at Sacramento Handyman for pocket door repair service.

  1. Yeah, it’s a difficult task if you are new in the business. Two handymen denied to repair my pocket door and then I called Sacrament Handyman and their professional person did it in no time!

  2. My pocket door was installed on an angle and eventually damaged the wall. I was so ticked off because I thought I would have to completely get it redone. Not the case. Sacramento Handyman came out with in a few days and corrected the issue at less the half the cost I would have had to pay to get it redone.

  3. I have a Pocket Door that is in need of repair. It keeps coming off of its track and does not really roll all that well well when it it on track. Can you help? I live in Roseville. Thanks – Jeff
