Hi there, the attached photos are the top and bottom of a patio door. I look at these and think a) the top one has had a bit of plastic accidentally shaved off and is now stuck in the gap above the door, and b) the bottom one ‘guide’ bit has bent in under the door when it should be outside of the track like the one on the opposite side is.

Please can I get an opinion as to whether my assumptions are right, or are these ‘joints’ as they should be please and there is some weird alien explanation as to why they should be this way :-)

Thanks in advance
Bob

How it's folded under itself is a mystery, can you unscrew the centre part probably aluminium that the other door locks onto?
 
I can give it a go I think thanks. So straighten out the bottom piece somehow and what do you think about the top part please, ie the weird folders plastic up here also ? Thanks bob
 
Same for both ends, but pretty sure you'll need to unscrew the centre part
