Hello, Trying to help my neighbor by fixing bottom roller on her sliding glass closet door. The plastic parts that mount to the metal roller are broken a seen in picture. Not sure what parts are needed and even how to remove and replace. Would need 2 roller replacements because both rollers are broken on 1 door. Any help is appreciated. Thanks, Tom

It's hard to make out what you have while it's still installed in the door, but your roller looks similar in design to our 23-075 . Look this part over and see what you think. As for removal, it'll be a little involved. You will first want to lay your door on a flat surface like the floor, or at least a big, solid table (these mirror doors are heavy so nothing that would buckle under the weight). Then, unscrew the frame screws and use a mallet and block of wood to gently, but firmly, tap the bottom rail off. Be very careful during this step; you'll need a little elbow grease to get the bottom rail off but you don't want to risk breaking the glass. Firm taps should do it. The roller should come loose with the rail. To install the new one you would reverse the process; align the roller in the rail, tap it back into place, then put the screws back in. |
