Looking for bypass door hardware, the hanger/roller that holds the door and fits in the track overhead. This is for a closet door in a bedroom. The house is 50yrs old and the rubber wheel is shot. The bearings are still good though, lol. Can't find a replacement anywhere.
I've looked at Stanley's and Johnson's websites. The closest thing is the heavy duty roller style, but today it's offered only in 2, 3 or 4 rollers. What I have is a single roller (2 per door), and is mounted on the top edge of the door, not the inside face. In other words, the mounting screws are vertical into the narrow edge of the door, not horizontal into the back face of the door.
I guess an option is to take out the old track and install new track and new rollers. But the track is trapped by some of the wood trim on the inside of the closet, and it means wood rippage which I want to avoid. I'm envisioning replacing of the track to be a pain in the backside.
Can anyone provide suggestions on where to look for old or discontinued bypass door hardware? Thanks.
