Trim clips
Had a lot of hassle trying to find some suitable clips to fix sliding door card to door,all the ones I've bought keep breaking and if they don't break they pop out the door.Anybody know where I can buy some quality ones .

These are type I've been using I paid more for mine though out of 25 clips 11 broke while fitting.gonna try the fir tree clips.Bit annoying really as I spent weekend recovering new panels now gotta remove it again to get broken clips out.
Re: Trim clips
Can you buy the fir tree ones that twist in? Can't say I have seen them anywhere.

Re: Trim clips
I can't see why you can't modify to twist fit. It only cutting the sides on the back of the clip.
