How to Remove a Sliding Glass Door Lock
- 1). Open the sliding glass door.
- 2). Remove the screws from both sides of the handle and pull out the handle cover.
- 3). Measure the screw points for the handle, the height and the width using a ruler to determine the size of your replacement handle and locks. Buy a handle from the door manufacturer to match the style and handle size.
- 4). Place both sides of the new handle in place and insert the screws. Tighten the screws with a screwdriver and test the lock with the new key. Move the handle up or down if the lock is not catching properly.
