patio door is an MI 950

Handy Person from Maryland
Hi there. I spoke to MI windows and they said the patio door is an MI 950 series it is a discontinued model.  I am in need of replacement roller assemblies.

Thank you for reaching out to us. We believe your door is using the 81-090 sliding door roller assembly, though we cannot be certain. The image provided only shows the interior of the roller assembly; the exterior portion is still attached to the door. To properly access the assembly, you'll need to remove the door. Start by unscrewing the two screws at the bottom of the frame. Carefully detach the bottom rail from the glass panel. Once that is done, you can slide the housing out from the door rail.

Once you have the full roller assembly put together, review the specifications of the 81-090 to see if they match what you need.

This part looks very close. The one difference that concerns me is the mounting screw. The existing unit has two screw holes and the top one at 7/8ths of an inch up is the one that had the mounting screw installed.

Thanks for getting back to us. In that case, we'll have to see a complete roller assembly put together, which will require removing the outer housing from the door. That will help us narrow down some options.

The inner piece was finally removed and it appears to be very similar to 81-081 
The only difference is that the dimple on mine appear to be higher on the unit. Roughly 7/8ths of an inch down from the top or 3/8ths up from the bottom.

Thank you for the additional photos. We don't sell this exact roller, unfortunately. The 81-081 would be the best we can offer from our inventory, but we can't promise a suitable fit since the design isn't exact. Our return policy can be found here just in case.
