The sliding glass doors in the closet in the bedroom will not stay closed if I take any kind of medium speed turn (which means they come open on nearly every trip). I can keep them closed if I add some aluminum foil around the male part of the latch. I think they are just worn out and need to be replaced. Does anyone have any ideas of where I can find replacements? Has anyone been able to repair them? Thanks.

Les, call Kevin Waite in Oregon @ 541 953-6162, mine did the same thing as yours and I replaced with the Heavier Version, I think its called 20lbs units.

Well this will break your budget.
Cut a little thin stick the length of the channel and drop it in. Make height tall enough to lift out with your finger. I drilled a hole in the stick as it lays above the channel rail. Put in a flat surface screw and a nut to secure. Picking up the shank of the screw makes removal easy. Putting the stick in the channel is just part of pre-trip inspection.

Ditto that, I installed the heavier ones from Kevin and fixed the problem too.

Thanks for all the suggestions. I've been in touch with Kevin and I think he will have the solution.
