Hi,
Was at my mothers and found a huge draft through her patio doors. They are the usual type from 20 years ago, one fixed panel and one door that slides across the fixed panel.
From outside when they are closed there is a brush draft strip between the two frames which is compressed at the bottom but there is a tapering gap increasing all the way to the top. I can get my pinky in the gap at the top.
I am talking about where the frames meet in the middle of the doors not where the frames meet the walls!
The door runs well and its not the up down of each wheel I need to adjust as its sitting perpendicular with the frame. Its as if I have grabbed the top of the sliding door and pulled it towards outside by about 5mm.
Is there a way to adjust this?
Thanks
