Bottom nylon door guides

Home Owner from British Columbia, Canada
Hello,
Do you ship to Canada? I am in need of the nylon end cap that goes in the bottom guide rail. House was built in 1966, metal bi-fold doors go from floor to ceiling. I need 20 of them.
Thanks,
Robin

Hello,

We'd be happy to look into this for you but we'll need more information to get started. First, we'll need to see the pin and cap fully removed from the door. We'll also need you to write out the exact dimensions of your part indicated in our guide below. Thank you!

Hello. The measurements of the nylon door guide are the same as the attached picture. I have also attached a picture of the pin it attaches too.

Hello,

You appear to have the old-style Slimfold bi-fold doors. Unfortunately, the nylon caps for the old pins are no longer available. The nylon caps today are for 1/4" pins, not 5/16". The 21-163 you show from our website is a bushing for the Benchmark doors, not a cap. Slimfold suggests replacing the guide pins with the 21-007

See our media guide on "How to install bi-fold closet door pins". You would need three 21-007 pins, one for the top pivot and two for the top and bottom guide pins. There is no need for the rod clamp. If you need the bottom adjusting pin, you would use the 21-001 with the 21-154 rod clamp. Take a look and see what you think.
