Hello,

We'd be happy to help but your photos only show the inner housing of your roller assembly. We would also need to see the outer housing, which is most likely still inside the door frame, to compare to our inventory. Thank you!

Hi Casey,sorry for the slow reply, I've only just gotten back to this house.

There is no outer casing, there is only a slot each side which is built into the door.
The wheels centre slips into this slot allowing vertical adjustment without horizontal movement.

Sorry about the bad photos, this slot is not able to be removed.

Your photos do appear to be showing the outer housing of the roller, though it may be rusted in place. Unfortunately, we won't be able to determine what could work for you with it still installed. I would recommend checking to make sure there are no installation or adjustment screws that are preventing you from removing it.

Hi Paul,
Thanks for your quick reply, I went back again and checked and you are correct.

I managed to get it out. Pictures are attached.

Thanks again,
Lachlan
