Looking for a replacement part for old metal bi fold doors. Building was built in 1969. Doors are very tall 92 or 93 inches.

I think we can help supply this pin, but I'd like a little more information before I recommend anything. First, can you tell me the diameter of the pin itself? Would it also be possible to see a clearer photo of the nylon cap that goes into the track? I would also need to know the diameter of that cap. Finally, do you have any idea who made this door? That would help us narrow down the list of potential replacements by a lot. Thank you!

A home owner from Roseville, MN says:
Unfortunately I dont know the manufacturer of the door. The pin diameter appears to be 3mm, the nylon cap is harder to measure - it seem to be 6mm. Thanks!

Can you confirm those measurements? 3mm is coming up as less than 1/16", which is extraordinarily small for a closet door pin. Most pins vary between 1/4" to even 5/16". I would also ask you to double check the diameter of the cap.

You may need to remove this hardware from the door to get accurate measurements.

A home owner from Roseville, MN says:
Sorry about that. The pin diameter is 1/4" and the nylon cap diameter is 1/2"

Thanks!

Thank you very much for double checking. We believe you have a Float-A-Way bi-fold door and can use their 1/4" new style 21-022 top and bottom guide, 21-023 bottom adjusting pin, and 21-024 top pivot pin. Please review. these parts.
