Patio Screen Door Roller Problem

Question

I was attempting to fix the roll of the screen door, when I REALLY fixed it.

I almost had it rolling nice and quiet...then I needed to make it perfect....which was a big mistake!

To make a long story short....all 4 rollers are now off the door. 2 were broken. There is absolutely no hardware on it now...no screws..no springs..no rollers. I've put the door (frame) in the basement until next summer!! It might work better next year. lol

I looked in Home Depot for rollers that were similar and couldn't find any that I could fit on. Do I need to buy a new door?

Answer

Hi, If you could post a picture of the recess in which the rollers fit, or of the old broken roller, I should be able to tell you if the rollers are still available.

As long as the frame is in good shape and is still good and strong, its cheaper to replace all the rollers.

Usually you replace the whole door when the old one is too flimsy or poorly made. Call me at 905-467-0233 if you need a price for a new one.
