Hi

I recently purchased these from you. I want to know if the these look right by the picture or are they supposed to go above the fuzzy felt. I'm having problems getting my door adjusted right. Not sure as how to adjust the wheels either as to make a smooth operation. How much wheel should be exposed at the bottom of the door?

Also should both wheels have the same distance? Any information would be appreciated.

Thank you

Tony

Hey, Tony. I don't see anything wrong with your installation of the 80-046 at first glance. Do you notice it dragging at all, or getting in the way? Is it loose or falling off?

As for adjusting the rollers, there's no exact science to it. It varies from door to door so it's going to take trial and error to get right. Your main goal should just be to ensure that the door isn't dragging on the track or scraping against the top rail, so adjust accordingly until that's accounted for.
