Repair
How We Repair Sliding Window Tracks and Rollers
- Step 1
Lift Out the Sash
The sliding sash is lifted out of the frame carefully, with glass protected.
- Step 2
Clean the Track
Sand and grit are vacuumed and brushed out, and drainage slots cleared.
- Step 3
Replace Rollers
Worn rollers are replaced with matched rollers for the profile.
- Step 4
Set and Test
The sash is refitted, the roller height set and the lock aligned and tested.
Why Sliding Windows Wear Out in Dubai
Fine desert sand blows into tracks, especially on high floors and during shamal winds. It acts like sandpaper on the rollers, wearing them flat until the sash drops onto the track and grinds.
Balcony sliding doors carry heavier glass, so their rollers wear faster. Once a door drops, it no longer meets its lock and the brush seals stop sealing. New rollers set at the right height fix all three problems together.
For locks that will not catch after the repair, see window lock and latch replacement. For seals, see window seal replacement, and for insect screens, fly screen installation.

Sliding Window Track and Roller Repair: FAQs
How Much Does Sliding Window Track and Roller Repair Cost in Dubai?
Roller replacement starts from AED 180 per sash including rollers. Balcony doors start from AED 200 per door. Prices vary and can change depending on your exact requirements, the materials and access to the property, so the final price is confirmed after we see photos or visit.
Why Does My Window Squeak?
Squeaking usually comes from dry or worn rollers, sand in the track or a frame rubbing against the sash. Cleaning the track and replacing rollers normally stops it.
How Long Does a Window Repair Take?
Most window repairs, such as new rollers, locks or seals, take one to two hours per window. Glass replacement can take longer if the pane has to be cut to size and fitted on a second visit.
Can You Repair Aluminium Sliding Windows?
Yes. Aluminium sliding windows are the most common type in Dubai. We replace rollers, locks, handles, brush seals and glass, and realign sashes that have dropped.
Should I Repair or Replace My Windows?
Most aluminium and uPVC windows can be repaired with new rollers, locks, seals or glass. Replacement is only worth it when frames are corroded, bent or badly warped.
