Sliding glass doors are great at bringing the outdoors in... unless they don't lock or latch. then anybody and everybody can come right in. Our Pella sliding glass door suddenly quit latching. So we had to dig into the guts of the locking mechanism to diagnose the issue.

First we had to remove the handle which became no small task to begin. We had to drill out the set screw to be able to remove the door handle cover. Once the cover was removed, the door handle was easily taken off after removing two long anchoring screws that connected both sides of the glass door handle.

The issue with our door was that the locking knob separated from the locking shaft that controls the entire door latching mechanism. it took a few minutes of troubleshooting the door latch to discover just how it locked the door. after that we could see that a misaligned door caused the locking lever or knob to pop off the shaft.

All we had to do was push the locking lever onto the shaft, secure the handle and we were good to go.
