Removing/replacing sliding door wheels

Quick Learner from Denver, CO

Hi, I'd like to replace the lower wheels on two sliding doors. Pictures attached. This is a vinyl clad door and I'm very reluctant to pound off the lower panel bar, as I see in some you tube videos. Can I remove and replace these wheels without disassembling the lower part of the door? I don't want to start something that I can't finish. Also, do you have these replacement wheels? I would need four, for two door sets.

thanks for your help! I'm the homeowner, but I'm pretty handy ...

Thanks for reaching out to us. Unfortunately, I have some bad news. We aren't able to ID this until it is removed from the door. Too many important details are obscured.

It very well may be necessary to remove the bottom rail of the door to replace these, but not on all doors. I'm actually not familiar with your door's design so I can't say for sure whether you need to or not. If you aren't familiar with this project then you may want the help of a local professional.

In the meantime, you can see our complete selection of double wheel patio door rollers here. There is a chance one of these is the one you want, but without seeing it out and without detailed dimensions I cannot narrow it down further.
