    Sliding patio door track
    The track on my aluminum patio sliding doors is curling up on both ends.. . Will a rail topper work for this? Do I remove the old one then put on the topper? Thanks, Troy

    The sill of door is screwed down. U will have to remove doors access them. Loosen screws and shim sill to make level. On outside put foam insulation in gap. Install new kick plate set in silicone.
