Change opening of sliding glass door

I have a double paned sliding glass patio door that opens “wrong”. I’m wondering if I can just swap and flip the doors. I know I will have to move the external portion of the lock but is it worth trying? Currently the sliding portion is about 2ft from the end of the sectional and not convenient at all. I am in a rental and have spoken to maintenance about swapping the opening. They basically said you break it you buy it but give it a go. Hopefully these pictures are of some use. submitted by /u/Beginning-Air-2777 [link] [comments]
