Good Morning,
Do you know what the brand of door you have?
Is this door on a boat?
What material is roller and the housing of your original roller?
Can you send a photo of your original roller?

followup response to my initial enquiry about your product #23-218, bottomside roller wheel.
The house is a ranch house built in 1955. Unfortunately I do not know the manufacutere of these metal doors.The closets in the rooms have metal double doors, the roller tracks are 1 3/8 inch apart. The top width of each track is also 1 3/8 inches. All the roller dimensions perfectly match with #23-218. The only doubt I have is about the strength and durability of nylon wheels especially at the edges.Is it possible to have this product in metal wheel? What are the alternatives?

I do not see any need for sending the image. I am satisfied with the picture of this product #23-218.

The reason I asked if this door was on a boat because I found a similar roller with a metal wheel but it was made to replace a wheel used by a boat manufacturer. The dimensions of this other roller are different from the 23-218 so I do not think it would be a good alternative for you.
Unfortunately the 23-218 is only available with a nylon wheel.
