AfterPocket & Barn Doors in Palm Beach, FL
Repairing or installing pocket and barn doors in Palm Beach typically costs between $350 and $950, depending on whether you need a track adjustment, roller replacement, or a full hardware retrofit. Most service calls are completed in a single visit, and we provide free estimates for all door projects. If your pocket door is binding in the track or your barn door hardware is failing, call us at (850) 801-5596 to speak with a live person who can schedule a technician to assess your specific opening.
At TruePane Windows & Doors, we treat every door project as a craft commitment. Founded by second-generation glazier Dale Kessler, we understand that a door is only as good as its track and balance. While many companies treat these doors as an afterthought, we specialize in the mechanics of sliding & patio doors. Whether you have a heavy interior barn door that has pulled away from the wall or a sliding pocket door that has jumped its track in a humid Palm Beach home, our team ensures the hardware is aligned and the motion is true. We are an authorized installer for lines like CWS, ES Windows, and ECO Window Systems, and we bring that same level of technical precision to every interior door repair we perform.
You can find more details on our broader service offerings on our Sliding & Patio Doors in Palm Beach page. We are committed to The Keystone Standard, which means we register both manufacturer warranty layers in writing before our truck leaves your driveway. If the pane is not true, the job is not done.
When You Need Pocket & Barn Door Service
Pocket and barn doors are space-saving solutions, but they rely on precision-engineered tracks and rollers that wear down over time. In the Palm Beach climate, humidity can cause interior wood framing to shift slightly, which often leads to binding or misalignment in pocket door cavities. We see these issues regularly in homes across the area.
- The door is dragging or scraping the floor: If you hear a grinding sound or see scratches on your flooring, the rollers inside the pocket or on the barn track have likely failed or become misaligned.
- The door jumps the track: When a door feels loose or unstable at the top, it is usually a sign that the guide or the hanger hardware has come loose from the door panel itself.
- Difficulty sliding: If you have to force the door to move, do not keep pushing it. This often damages the track or the drywall inside the pocket cavity, turning a simple roller adjustment into a wall repair project.
- Loose or noisy hardware: Barn door hardware is exposed and collects dust, which can clog the wheel bearings. We can clean, lubricate, or replace these components to restore smooth operation.
- The door won’t stay closed or open: This usually indicates that the floor guide is missing or the door is no longer plumb, meaning the door is sliding on its own due to gravity.
- Insecure lock mechanisms: If your privacy lock or latch is no longer catching, the door may have sagged, preventing the hardware from aligning with the strike plate.
If you are experiencing any of these symptoms, call (850) 801-5596. We provide background-checked, uniformed technicians who arrive with the tools to diagnose the problem on the first visit. We do not believe in second appointments if we can finish the job correctly the first time.
Our Pocket & Barn Doors Process
We approach every door service with the same methodical process Dale Kessler established back in 2008. We do not use guesswork; we use measurements and manufacturer specifications to ensure your door operates the way it was designed to.
- Initial Assessment: When we arrive, we first check the level and plumb of the door panel. We examine the track for debris or structural bending and inspect the roller assemblies for signs of wear.
- Hardware Identification: Because we work with many different door systems, we identify the specific hardware brand. We carry common replacement parts for systems like other major manufacturers to ensure we can complete the repair immediately.
- Track and Roller Service: We remove the door panel to access the track. We clean the track of any dust or paint buildup, replace the rollers if they are worn or seized, and re-balance the door so it moves with minimal effort.
- Adjustment and Alignment: Once the hardware is serviced, we adjust the vertical and horizontal alignment. We test the door repeatedly to ensure it latches properly and does not bind against the frame or floor.
- The Keystone Standard Check: Before we finish, we verify that all warranty paperwork is registered. We test the operation with you, explain what we did, and ensure you are satisfied with the movement.
- Done Right Promise: Every job is backed by our Done Right Promise. If the door does not operate as expected, we return to make it right, with no paperwork fights and no arguing.

FAQs - Pocket & Barn Doors
Can you fix a pocket door that has fallen off the track?
Yes, we can usually fix a pocket door that has jumped the track without opening the wall, provided the track itself is not damaged. Our technicians are trained in screen door installation and repair, and can carefully remove the door panel, reset the rollers, and adjust the guides to prevent it from happening again. Call (850) 801-5596 so we can assess your door and get it back on track.
Is it cheaper to repair or replace a barn door?
In most cases, repairing the existing barn door is significantly cheaper than replacing the entire unit, especially if the door panel itself is in good condition. We specialize in retrofitting new, high-quality hardware to existing doors, which saves you the cost of a full door installation. Call us for an honest assessment of whether your hardware can be serviced or if a replacement is truly needed.
Do you handle custom door sizes in Palm Beach?
Yes, we work with a variety of manufacturers to source hardware and replacement panels for non-standard openings. Whether your home has older, custom-built doorways or modern, panoramic sliding systems, our team measures twice to ensure the replacement parts fit correctly. We do not guess on measurements.
How quickly can you fix a binding door?
We aim to complete most door repairs in a single visit. Because we keep our trucks stocked with common rollers, tracks, and hardware components, we can often resolve the issue while we are at your home. Call (850) 801-5596 to speak with our team and schedule a technician to come out to your property.
