Wheels for a sliding glass door

Question

These are the wheels from my condo sliding glass door built around 1965. They are a mess. I believe Lumidor Roller Assembly, 1-1/2" Concave BB Wheel Product Code: 81-019 is the right match and would appreciate a review and confirmation before placing an order. Also, would 6' Sliding Door Track Cover, Small Product Code: 80-102 work with this wheel assembly. It seems like this cover is wider than the wheel groove based on the dimensions provided on your site compared to the current worn assemblies I have. Can this cover piece be crimped flatter to mold around the current track and be able to fit in the wheel groove? The current track cannot be replaced as it is all one integrated threshold piece.

Hello,

I agree that the 81-019 looks like a promising match for the rollers shown in your photos. The determining factor would be how the dimensions below compare to yours.

I have not come across any customers having trouble with our roller wheels not fitting the 80-102 track over or 80-106 track. It's possible that the size discrepancy could be due to your wheels being worn down over time. See the video below showing the installation process for the 80-102 track cover. Thank you.
