Urgent enclosure advice/help needed!

[kelsey]

I have two 1200/600 melamine enclosures with plastic tracks and sliding glass that have been in use for around 2.5 yrs with no problems however recently with all the wet weather (im assuming) the melamine seems to be warping and the glass is no longer fitting snug in the tracks and whenever I slide the glass open it's almost falling completely out of the enclosure.
I'm considering removing the tracks completely and replacing them with hinged glass, lockable doors but don't know if this is the best option and don't want to risk the glass falling out or replacing them with something unsuitable.
If anyone has had a similar problem and found a guaranteed solution Please help me asap!

If the cabinets were not sealed properly initially or perhaps just through prolonged exposure to humidity the wood may have warped. My suggestion would be to knock up a few replacment cabinets, and transfer the contents into the new enclosures. Wood from bunnings for something this size would be approx $60 per cabinet, and they can cut it for you at some stores. The glass and other components are the most expensive parts, so in the long run this would be your best solution, rather than damage control.

I can see where you're coming from, didn't think I'd have to replace them this early though, they're awesome enclosures it's such a shame.
Plus I'm concerned about rebuilding in case a similar thing happens. I think I need a different option from the sliding doors

Not sure if you could add an internal pine frame and screw/glue the melamine into the pine to hold it in place. This option may give you a bit more life out of the enclosure.
