Door removal

Code: Select all

Anyone have any advice/ idea for the sliding door removal on a 350 Carver Mariner? I need to replace the insulation at the top in the track.

Seems to me there may have been a thread about this door removal/adjustment a few years back....
FWIW.....The above is just my opinion.

i am not a pro but i wanna provide you some general tips:

Safety First: Ensure the boat is securely docked or anchored, and the area is well-lit to prevent accidents.

Clear the Area: Remove any obstacles or items that might obstruct your access to the sliding door.

Remove the Door Handle: Most sliding doors have a handle that can be unscrewed or detached. Remove the handle first.

Check for Screws and Fasteners: Look around the frame of the sliding door for screws or fasteners.

Lift the Door: With the fasteners removed, gently lift the sliding door up and out of the track.

Inspect and Replace Insulation: Once the door is removed, you can access the top track and replace the insulation as needed.

Sliding door removal and insulation replacement can be a bit tricky, but doable. Do you know the type of insulation material you'll be using for the replacement?
