Request Compatibility CheckWhy upgrade the mechanism?
Many early VELFAC sliding doors remain in excellent structural condition long after the original running mechanism has reached the end of its service life.
Replacing the complete door is often unnecessary. If the frame, sash and glazing remain in good condition, upgrading to the latest mechanism can restore smooth operation and extend the life of the door for many more years.
Complete Upgrade Kit
The upgrade kit includes the latest replacement components required to convert pre-2009 sliding doors to the current mechanism.
- Running trucks
- Lower drive components
- Top steers
- Bottom track
- Associated upgrade components
- UK delivery included
Professional Installation Recommended
This is not a like-for-like replacement.
The latest mechanism differs from the original pre-2009 design and requires modification and careful adjustment during installation.
For this reason we strongly recommend installation is carried out by an Approved VELFAC Service Agent or suitably experienced installer.
Doors Manufactured From 2009 Onwards
Many VELFAC sliding doors manufactured from 2009 onwards do not require a complete mechanism upgrade.
In many cases, individual components can be replaced, making repairs considerably more economical.
Simply send us a photograph of your VELFAC reference label and we’ll identify the correct replacement parts before you order.
Request AdviceNot Sure Which Parts You Need?
The quickest way for us to identify the age of the product and the correct mechanism is from the original VELFAC reference label.
Simply send us a clear photograph of the label and we’ll confirm:
- The age of your sliding door
- Whether a complete upgrade kit is required
- Whether individual replacement parts are available
- The correct components before you order
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I replace only one truck?
For pre-2009 doors the mechanism has been redesigned and should be upgraded as a complete system.
Do I need to replace the whole door?
Usually not. If the frame, sash and glazing remain in good condition, replacing the mechanism is often a far more economical solution.
Can NW ReFit install the mechanism?
No, we do not have field based technicians. If you do not already have a local installer, we recommend searching for an Approved VELFAC Service Agent in your area. An experienced VELFAC specialist will be familiar with the upgrade procedure for older sliding doors. If you’re unsure where to start, feel free to contact NW ReFit. We’ll do our best to point you in the right direction.
