Hello,
I found your website and I see that you have helped a lot of folks with problems and I am hopeful you may be able to assist us as well. The attached pictures are from the laundry area in our home. There are 3 doors. 2 bifold at 50 inches on either end, and then the middle door which swings open to the left. We bought the home 20 years ago and this was the existing doors and has worked for a long time until the plastic broke on the top bracket. Now the middle door does not stay put and we can't find a replacement part.
Picture 1 - is so you can see where the door goes
Picture 2 - is the bottom bracket and there is a pin of sorts that goes in the hole
Picture 3 - is the top bracket in the track - you can see that it is screwed in and the hole to the left is what has broken - the length is 2 1/4 and the width of the track is 1 inch
I saw so items on your website that I thought might be helpful, but I'm not sure and wanted to see if you had any ideas. I saw the Bifold track with pivot bracket, the bifold door top pivot bracket. I would imagine that we would need some sort of pins as well?
The bottom pin was a spring pin, and is also broken. So, the top and bottom both need to be replaced. We did look at new door systems, but if there is a way to fix what we have, we would much rather fix it than replace it.
If you are able to return the message with any ideas, we would really appreciate it.

Thanks for posting. Do you still have the pins? If so, can you give us the diameter of the pins as well as the diameter of any caps on the pins? Also, is there any label perchance on the inside of the door that states the manufacturer? That could be helpful as well. From there, we'll do our best to find what you need. Thanks!
