substitute bifold door top pivot?

A home owner from Greeley, CO says:
I plan to order parts for my bifold closet door. Can I replace top pivot part 23-123 (currently out of stock) with spring loaded 23-122? Also, I'll be ordering 23-306 to replace my Stanley part 2819, among other parts.

Tom from SWISCO responded:

I'm honestly not sure if the 23-112 will replace the 23-123. I've never done that before. Their dimensions are similar, so I suppose its possible, but they're still two very different parts and I can't predict what complications would arise by swapping them out.

A home owner from Greeley, CO says:
OK, thank you. Any idea when part 23-123 might again be available?

Unfortunately, I checked with our purchasing manager and we don't expect to have these back in stock until the end of July. We were hoping to have these in sooner but the public health crisis has caused delays across the board. I am very sorry for the inconvenience. 

A home owner from Greeley, CO says:
I completely understand, and I thank you for your prompt and honest reply. In my upcoming order, I'll include part 23-112 and will let you know if it works, or not. Thanks again!
