The entrance to my grandmother's house is an old sliding glass door.> Similar to this door https://ift.tt/2MyDnna but older.It has a bottom only track system and predates edgeguards. These are plastic guards that sit on either side of the wheels on the bottom to prevent them from bouncing off the track. This has never been a problem for her until recently. People have been whipping the door open as fast as they can; this of course leads to the door bumping on something on the track and the wheels fall off the track. This results in the door being very hard to move until one lifts the door and sets the wheels back on the track.The easy fix to this whole problem I know is to simply install edgeguards on the door. Except this door is exceptionally old & is 70% stained glass (something like this https://ift.tt/2L7bIq1 ). Frankly I am terrified at the prospect of removing the door to install the guards because it literally cannot be replaced & if the glass is damaged cannot be fixed.So DIYers I need your smarts, madness, and Macgyver skills!I need someway to prevent these monsters; honestly who the hell whips open an antique sliding door, from whipping open the door.I assume some kind of door plunger system might work. Something like a storm door but reversed, so instead of slowing the door closing(slamming shut) it would slow the opening the door.That said any thoughts or ideas would be greatly appreciated. via /r/DIY https://ift.tt/30wo3KS
