Screen door rollers

Hello,

I'm looking for rollers like shown in the photo for my screen door. I've found these similar rollers locally but they are too wide for the slot in the metal frame. I suppose I have a nonstandard metal frame door, it measures 7/16th inch wide outside to outside. The screen door goes with a vinyl frame slider that is 25 years old. I believe it was made by EPI, the same company that made our vinyl windows.

Hi Don,

We've related a few of our rollers that are similar to the example photo you've sent, but all of them measure 3/8" wide. Take a look and see how the dimensions compare to your original roller. If you're still stumped, I would recommend removing and sending us a photo of the original roller, along with precise dimensions so that we can research this for you. Thank you!

Hello,
Here is one of the original rollers. Notice that it is only 5/16 - inch wide rather than the 3/8 - inch version. The original door was made by EPI over 25 years ago. Is there any chance you can get the narrower version that I need?
Thanks, Don

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but this roller isn't made anymore. The manufacturer did make an extra skinny version of this years ago, but as far as we know it's been discontinued for quite some time. 

Despite our best efforts, we haven't been able to find a satisfactory solution.
