nylon wheel

A quick learner from Westchester, IL says:

Thanks for your help. I have a sun porch that is probably 30 or more years old made or sold by Patio Enclosures. They are still in business but won't sell me parts last time I called them. The enclosure doors and screens have this wheel assembly. It wears out on the doors. Been swapping roller assemblies between them. But I would like to fix it properly. I have pictures but I do not know how to attach them.

Hello,

We did carry a roller similar to yours at one time but, unfortunately, it was discontinued and we have not been able to locate a suitable replacement. 

If you think that you could reuse the original housing, you may be able to swap the wheels using the 81-228 nylon wheel and 81-310 repair kit. I'm sorry that we won't be able to offer more assistance with this repair but please let us know if you have any other hardware questions. Thanks for posting.
