I purchased your shower door roller 10-152 based on your customer discussions surrounding the Allen Stevens shower door roller A-S 3937. The replacement wheel is considerably smaller than the original which in 1" in diameter. before I bring a handyman out to install this , I'd like to know if you think this can work as a replacement for my rollers.

Your Allen Stevens shower door bracket is no longer available. We suggest adapting the 10-152 roller assembly to your door. Compare your part to ours. Do you think it can be made to work?

How can it be adapted?

Allen Stevens normally used a 3/4" flat wheel with their die cast bracket, and the infrequently used 1" wheel is no longer available anymore. The 10-152 allows you to adjust the height to make up for the difference, which may be enough.

The crucial dimension is the space between the flat of the roller and the axle between the wheel and the plate. If this space is not large enough, the axle will scrape the lip of the rail that the roller sits on.
