As a widely loved space saving solution, built-in wardrobes with sliding doors are a fantastic choice for any clothing collection. However, they can often frustrate users if the sliding doors start to stick and catch.

At Custom Creations, we ensure our customers receive the best quality systems, that don’t fall victim to common issues faced by freestanding options for these wardrobes. Within this blog, discover how to maintain your sliding wardrobe doors for years to come.

How To Maintain Sliding Closet Door Systems

  • Vacuum or brush out any loose dirt from the bottom and top tracks.
  • Check clothes aren’t trapped in the track when you close the doors.
  • Choose aluminium tracks, as used by Custom Creations.
  • Clean any liquids up that may drop on the tracks immediately.
  • Only use dry cleaning methods, not water and soap.

While sticky sliding doors can be frustrating, they can be often prevented through regular cleaning, lubrication and proper usage. However, for instances that are hard to avoid from issues such as corrosion from rust, design choices can play a part in avoiding this.

Benefits Of Aluminium Sliding Doors

At Custom Creations, we use aluminium systems for our fitted sliding wardrobes which are not only stronger than steel sliding door solutions, but also resistant to weather exposure, avoiding issues caused by rust such as stickiness from corrosion. Further, our bespoke aluminium sliding doors come with sealed bearing composite wheels for smooth operation and quietness.

Backed by our 25 year guarantee, our fitted wardrobes with sliding doors are tailored to you and your needs with over 1000 combinations of glass, panels and materials to ensure you have the style and storage design you’re looking for.
