How do I remove the door from the track? Then, how do I remove and replace the roller?
Thanks,
Jim

That would depend on a few factors. Could you show me a picture of the door from the inside and outside? Thanks!

Thanks for the response. I am attaching four photos of the door. Hopefully these will give you the information you need.
Thanks,

I believe that Pella doors, like Andersen wood patio doors, have a piece of wood trim at the top inside of the track. It should be held in with screws. You will have to take those out to remove the wood trim. After it is removed, the door should drop out from the top of the door to you on the inside of the house.

Pella is not at all like Andersen. The sliding door is on the outside. Remove the handle. Remove the bumper from the track. Slide the door all the way back until the door is past the bottom bracket in the middle. The bottom (not the top) should lift off the track and swing out away from the door.

Hi Jim,
Did you ever find out what kind of rollers you need and how to remove them? I have the same door as you posted.
