Caring for PVC/uPVC Wardrobe Sliding Tracks and Hardware

The wardrobe panel itself needs almost no upkeep, but the moving hardware benefits from a little routine attention.

Key points

• Vacuum or wipe the sliding track every couple of months to clear dust that can affect smooth movement.
• Avoid forcing a sticking shutter — check the track for debris first rather than pushing harder on the handle.
• A small amount of silicone-based lubricant (not oil-based) on the track keeps rollers moving smoothly.
• Check and tighten handle and hinge screws periodically, as these can loosen slightly with daily use over years.
• Soft-close mechanisms rarely need adjustment, but if one starts closing too fast, it usually just needs the damper checked.

Why this matters when you're planning cupboard

At No More Wood, every cupboard we design starts from this same material logic — everyday cupboards in humid coastal cities take a beating — shelves sag, corners swell, and once termites get in, an entire cupboard of clothes or linen can be ruined without warning. We build the cupboard to avoid that from day one, not patch it later.
