How do you lube van sliding doors?

My van’s power doors are sticking and won’t slide as smoothly as they used to. How do you lube van sliding doors?

Few things are as annoying as an uncooperative sliding door! Here’s how you can quickly and easily lubricate a van’s sliding doors:
  • Use a rag to wipe down the upper and lower tracks the door slides on and clear them of dirt and other debris. This alone could make a big difference in how easily your van’s sliding doors move.
  • Apply your spray lubricant to the upper and lower tracks
  • Open and close the door a few times
Once your van sliding doors are well-lubricated again, opening and closing them should be more effortless.
If only it were as easy to slide into a better
