Nothing on parts

There are no names, numbers, or markings on any of the parts or doors.  The house was built in 1969 and these are the original doors for all closets in the house.

Hey there. Can you tell us the diameter of the pins, and the diameter of the caps atop the pins? Without the label it might be tricky to narrow these down, but we'll do our best.

Hi Bob,  Hope I measured the correct parts.  If not, please let know.  Thanks,  Jack

Thanks for getting back to us, maybe I can be of assistance. I think the best we can offer based on the provided information is our 21-003 threaded adjusting pin. This pin will raise, lower and square up the door. For the other three pins, I suggest the 21-042 spring loaded pins. One for the top pivot and the other two for the top and bottom guide pins.

The pins you suggest using look like they would work except the plastic fittings on most of my doors also need replaced.  My plastic fittings are what holds the pins in place.  I only have a few that aren't broken after almost 60 years of use.  Do you stock any kind of fittings that would work on my doors?  I'm including a photo of some pins and broken fittings/adjustment wheels.  I think some of the other pictures I sent show the plastic parts in place.  The "cut outs" on my doors don't look like the door cut outs on your video that show your metal fittings that hold the pins in place.  Wish I had a 3D printer and the brains to know how to use one!   Thanks,   Jack

Thanks for getting back to us. Looking at your door photos, The top and bottom cut outs for the door pins appear to be round holes. You would put the 21-163 grommet in the top and bottom hole for the pins to slide through.
