Could this temporarily fix a sliding glass door? I need a 3 week fix for a "star crack", about a foot long at the longest point with a deep crater

It should seal thin cracks and keep them from leaking. It is for fixing leaks. Don't know what you mean by a deep crater.

It could stop leaks but it will not stop a crack from progressing - to stop the crack from progressing you would need to stop-drill the crack - that is drill a hole at the very end of the crack - if the flex-seal stops the leak on the existing crack and the crack progresses you would have to add more flex seal to continue stopping the leak

it depends on how well you do it, and the shape/position of the crack. for the price I think its worth a try. I would be a bit careful about safety issues though, in case it might fail during use.

No, this has a sticky back that adheres to the sliding glass door so when someone tries to open the door, the flap prevents it from opening. You can put it anywhere on the glass. YouTube videos will provide you with a visual aid.

I'm sorry, this door is not meant to be used with a sliding glass door and is not made to work in tandom with a second screen without a specialized kit which is no longer made. The door uses a latch instead of a magnet.Thank you,Hardware Sales

I can't even imagine cutting the glass and then securing it with screws. I'd have to refer you to a glass shop. This works fine on our 2-inch thick door. But glass? Sounds scary to me. Good luck.

Only if you don't place it right next to the frame on the stationary glass. Wherever you place it on the stationary glass, that's as far as the sliding glass will open. Follow me? ( place it an inch or two away from the frame on the stattionary glass, and that way you can still slide the moving door open a crack). Hope that helps.

Hello Robert, I used this product to fill the "star" crack on my windshield. It worked great...but I would advise going to youtube and check out "windshield repair" videos. It's easy once you have seen it done. Good Luck!

Yes, I used this a bit ago to repair the t100ta-b1-gr for my aunt. Remember to use heat to remove the original glue around the broken glass, otherwise it breaks into imperceptibly small shards that will haunt you for weeks. I'm not joking - you'll find the little shards when you least expect it, or when is least convenient. No additional tools were supplied despite the advertisement in my case.

It should fix the issue. Depending on how fast you work, it should take about 30-60 minutes to fix.

I would say so, my mom's door just had thin wood strips between the glass panes. My husband says you only have to drill a 1/4 to 1/2 inch sized hole - he installed one at his office.

Yes I would say so. I repaired mine last summer and it has held up very well. Feels just like the tile, isn't a totally perfect match but at least there is not a huge gouge anymore. My repair was in the hallway to the kitchen. As long as you let it cure it will be fine!!

Maybe if it is a small dent like the size of quarter - dime. You could better get it from the inside by removing some of the insulation if you can. On my garage door, I could cut out a section of insulation and then splice it back in later.

I think it would work unless the crack is massive or structural. I suggest using stainless steel mesh patch fabric in the weld, and if possible, weld it in from underneath so that the smoothness of the slide-side can be preserved as much as possible. But be aware that it will never be as smooth as the original. Not that it will necessarily have sharp or scratchy points, but it will be a bit lumpy/bumpy at the repair site. Good luck!

You can fix either. I had 2 stone chips that were very close to each other and it filled both - I got lucky. If you have a crack that has legs you may want to replace the windshield vs. trying to fill a crack. The hole on the guide is not much bigger than a pencil eraser so keep that in mind for your repair.

It's possible but we had to train our cat and dog to get through. My cat tore holes through the first one we had and so we're replacing it, but it's definitely worth it (we had it for a year before this happened and it only happened because the glass door was closed and it was storming). Overall, it's worth the price. We use it in stead of a sliding screen, and it's so nice and easy.

It would work, but I would be afraid it would scratch or the break glass. It is heavy

Probably would work, but will not 'dry' clear. I'd suggest a windhield star repair kit, that stuff is designed to fix stars in windhields, I've used it for that purpose, it works. Look for 'windshield star patch kit' or similar search.
