Hello @royce79

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us, and thanks for sharing your question about your glass sliding door.

I suspect that one hole in the door is for adjustment and the other one is for disassembly. It appears your door is not giving away any secrets, and I'm not familiar with its configuration. It does not appear to have any hidden screws or secret slots that you can lift off to release the door from its channel.

I suggest having a quick look at this discussion - How to remove patio security screen door? by @bobleeinoz. We had an extended discussion on possible methods of removal. There is also another link to an older discussion where removal techniques were discussed.

If after reading the discussions and none of the removal techniques work, I recommend engaging the services of a professional and observe how they remove the glass sliding door.

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.
