This spring-loaded roller guide is designed to help bi-fold doors glide smoothly and reliably. The guide mounts on the top edge of bi-fold doors and works with door thicknesses ranging from 1 inch to 1-3/8 inches thick. It reduces friction between the door and frame, extending the life of your door system and making operation effortless.
Whether you’re installing new bi-fold doors or replacing a worn-out guide roller, this part delivers consistent performance. The self-adjusting design accommodates varying heights from 1-1/2 to 2 inches, making it versatile for different door configurations. Installation is straightforward—the tapered plastic housing is designed to be tapped into a pre-drilled hole with a soft mallet.
