Does any one  know of an accessory  that I have read about that allows the sliding door to stay locked in any position other than the fully open one.
Sure Ive seen at at shows but for the life of me I cant locate this item#Loathe t0 wedge it with bits of wood etc for fear of damaging the mechanism but it would be nice to have the door partially open at times.

I use a small rubber wedge and put it on the the upper track and wedge the white roller in the required position. It shouldn't do any harm to the mechanism provided it is removed before anybody tries to move the door shut, or more open.

You can see the door in the halfway position in my avatar.

I'm glad to help. I couldn't find a suitable rubber wedge, so I cut an eraser in half diagonally which gave me two wedges. smile!

Rubber door stop does the job. Wedge the door at the bottom.

...or pitch on a slight slope content. Sorry, I know that's not helpful but seems to work for me.
