Screen door and rollers are c.30 years old.
Rollers are metal, and probably need replacing.
No numbers or markings on rollers.
Rollers are c. 1/8 inch thick and exactly 1 inch in diameter.
Photos included.
Can't see any like ours on your site, but willing to experiment with a
substitute if you can suggest one.

Hello!

Take a look at our 84-002M roller. This looks like it may be what you need. Review the specifications and see what you think.

The 84-002M roller looks correct.
Thank you!
The next question is: "how many to get?"
Is it a principle that all four must be replaced, or only the bottom two which get the most wear? (I have not extracted the two top rollers.)

We always suggest replacing all of them but the choice is ultimately yours. Odds are you can replace just one and not notice a difference. However, why risk an uneven operation? You may as well replace them all so you know for sure that everything is working optimally.
