Do you clean the muck out of the gap where the door opens and slides?
We look at them, they look through them.

If there’s debris I’ll pick it out and rinse it through , doesn’t take long does it , plus it keeps the drainage holes from blocking which would at some point cause water ingress in the future.
And that of course would be  “ THE WINDOW  CLEANERS FAULT “.   ;D ;D

I might clear a few leaves out of gap and give it a quick wipe with a cloth(before using wfp)if it's a first clean but on normal maintenance cleans.....no........
price higher/work harder!

Pull out leaves/moss etc. with my fingers and then i stick a cloth in the channel for a few seconds to soak up the water and wipe the track clean.
Doesn't take long but looks so much better than just leaving it as it was.
