Roller replacement

Handy Person from Venice Florida
Hello,
This is a sliding glass patio door that was probably installed when the house was built in the early 1970's.
There is an imprint at the bottom of this glass door indicating that it was manufactured by Anderson.I recently purchased this house and I'm noticing that the wheel itself is breaking apart.
Wondering if you have a replacement idea for this? It looks like there's a pin holding one end of the roller mechanism to the frame, while the other end is screwed in in combination with an adjustment screw.
Any thoughts/help is appreciated.
 Thanks.

Hello,

We'd be happy to look into this for you, but we would need to see your roller fully removed from the sash frame to compare to our inventory. See the videos related on this page to assist you in the meantime. Thank you!

Hi Dave, thank you for your reply. I figured out a solution. I was able to remove the whole lower section off of the glass to safely punch the pin holding the roller(s) in place. I then just replaced the rollers.

That's great! Certain doors do require more disassembly to access the rollers than others, which can make it a bit tricky. Just let us know if you have any other hardware questions.
