Andersen Lower Screen Roller Assembly (1991 to Present) - 1997310

26 year old Anderson 8 sliding door that gets used a lot with dogs. Screen door just would slide well till I looked into this. Read all the reviews and surprise my replacement was very easy no issue. Adjusted the level up, added some WD40 and smooth as ever. Only did one while the other side adjustment is weathered but it works great. Very happy I took on this project...

No problems installing. Screen door has been working like new!

easy to install, and the window glide as it was before

Replaced wheel that was broken works just like a new screen would recommend this to anyone who has a screen that needs a wheel

Upgrade from original slide; simple to replace

Easy to install and a good fix for our screen door problem.

This product is a PERFECT replacement for the roller assembly for my sliding screen door. Mine broke and finding a replacement was not easy. My first stop was the local hardware store; they had lots of roller assemblies, but none that matched the one from my screen door. I considered Home Depor and Lowes, but decided to try amazon.com and typed in screen door roller assembly into the search field and up came several dozen of models - Amazing! I looked at the pictures and found the one that matched. [BTW, until I saw the picture and its title, I didnt know that I had an Andersen Screen Door]. Removing the old, broken roller assembly was very difficult. It says you need to push the tabs on either side of the roller assebly together so it will slide out of the slot in the door; a difficult, but not impossible process. Actually, that didnt wok for me. On the roller assembly that was broken, the tabs had already broken off (thats why it no longer worked), so the assembly could be pulled out, a long-nosed pliers and a very hefty pull would help. On the other roller, the only way I could get it out was to break the tabs off on purpose; you could not push them together since the plastic had become hard and brittle with age. One person can do this, but it would be a lot easier if you had a second person to steady the door while you use both hands to extract the roller assembly. The replacement just pops into the slot; thats easy. A suggestion: Replace both rollers while you are at it. That way you only have the aggravation once.

Our screen door was completely broken and just skidding on the rails.. I could see the old ones had broken clips and fallen into the door. The hardest part about this fix was getting the old ones OUT! bent some of the door in the process but after the old ones were removed and I straightened it out.. the new ones went in with no problem. A simple diagram would have been helpful.. but it wasnt super complex.

These snapped right and and made my 20 year old Anderson sliding screen door glide smoothly. Go to the Anderson website to learn how to find your model and series number of your doors, so you buy the right fit.

I had bought a after market at Home Depot for more money and it broke right away this one works great and a better price
