Screen door roller replacement

A home owner from Los Angeles says:

I have a wooden screen door that was installed about 20 years ago. The Souther California manufacturer is no longer in business, so I am unable to acquire new rollers from the manufacturer. The original roller appears to have been modified (tab bent) to allow it to work on this door. I'm looking for an equivalent replacement.

Hello,

Take a look at the 81-247 roller. It's not an exact match but see if you might be able to adapt it to your patio screen door. We also offer the 81-248 roller but it has a flat wheel, while most rollers like this one have concave wheels. 

Also, please note that if the tab needs to be in the same position for installation, you would need to bend the new roller tab to match. Just keep in mind that once modifications are made, they will no longer be eligible to be returned. Take a look and see how the specifications of these parts compare to your roller. Thanks for posting.
