Arizona's dry, sunny climate has its own effects on sliding doors. Intense UV rays can degrade seals and frame materials over time. Dust and sand are common, especially in areas like Surprise and Buckeye, and can clog tracks. While freezing is rare, temperature fluctuations can still cause minor expansion and contraction in materials. These factors contribute to doors becoming difficult to slide.
