Stocked Parts
Most of Bartonville's housing went up around 1956
Which puts a lot of these garages on steel track built to the narrower profile that was standard before the mid-1960s. The rollers that came with those doors were plain steel on a steel stem, no bearing, no nylon tire. They're loud, they wear a groove into the track over time, and the groove is usually the real reason the door binds, not just the roller itself.
We carry nylon rollers with sealed bearings in the stem sizes that fit this era of hardware
Along with the galvanized track sections that match narrow-gauge rail. If your track has already worn an hourglass shape where the old steel roller rode, we replace the track section along with the rollers rather than bolt new rollers into a track that will chew through them in a year. We don't stock every obscure stem length on the truck, so if your door has an odd non-standard roller - some do, especially on doors that have been repaired piecemeal over the decades - that part may need a short order lead time.
