Same here. Had to replace rollers on my patio door (I had sliding
patio doors but wife insisted on one when I built the addition).
Finally had to call the 'window people' It took two of them, my wonder
bar plus a strong screwdriver. Obviously the subfloor had swelled,
risen or something. Ever have to do it again, a notch will be ground
at one position on the bottom track.
