I'm not sure, but could the black marks be from the air flowing under the door track? This happens often on carpet near interior walls when the air flows under an interior wall. The dirt in the air will stain the carpet because the carpet acts like a dirt filter. The solution is to caulk under the sliding door track or along the inside or outside edge of the track.
