Tandem Roller Assembly for Gliding Patio Doors

Key Features

  • 1-1/4" Steel Ball Bearing Wheels: Precision-engineered steel wheels provide a smooth, low-friction glide even for heavy double-pane glass doors, ensuring effortless operation.
  • Tandem Load Distribution: The dual-wheel configuration distributes the door's weight across a larger surface area, significantly reducing wear on the track and preventing "flat spots" on the wheels.
  • High-Capacity Galvanized Housing: Constructed from heavy-gauge galvanized steel to resist corrosion and structural bending, making it ideal for high-humidity or coastal environments.
  • Side-Access Adjustment Screw: Features a conveniently located internal screw that allows you to easily raise or lower the door height to ensure perfect vertical alignment with the side jamb.
  • Universal Drop-In Design: Engineered for a precise fit into the bottom rail of standard gliding doors, requiring no specialized tools for a standard replacement.

Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

  • Current Standard: 1997061 (Used for doors manufactured from 1982 to Present).
  • Legacy Standard: 1273704 (Used for doors manufactured from 1964 to 1982).

Compatibility & Fitment

This tandem roller is the primary replacement part for the most popular Andersen-brand gliding door systems. Key compatible series include:

  • Andersen Perma-Shield: Fits the majority of Perma-Shield Gliding Patio Doors manufactured since 1964.
  • Andersen Frenchwood: Compatible with Frenchwood Gliding (FWG) patio doors.
  • Andersen Narroline & A-Series: Direct fit for Narroline (NL) and newer A-Series gliding door systems.
  • Note: While this part is standard for Andersen, it is essential to verify your existing housing dimensions and wheel diameter (1-1/4") before ordering.

When to Replace

  • Door is Hard to Slide: Opening or closing the door requires significant physical effort, indicating that the ball bearings have seized or the wheels have become misshapen.
  • Grinding or Squeaking Noise: A loud metallic sound as the door moves suggests the steel wheels are dragging across the track rather than rolling freely.
  • Door Jumps or Sags: The door feels "bumpy" when in motion or sits crooked in the frame, often causing air leaks and difficulty with the locking mechanism.
  • Visible Rust on Bearings: In high-moisture areas, the internal steel bearings can corrode and lock up, preventing the wheel from turning at all.
  • Stripped Adjustment Screw: You can no longer level the door because the internal adjustment threads have failed due to age or overtightening.

Installation Tips

  • Safety First: CRITICAL: Gliding patio doors are extremely heavy. Always use two people to lift the door panel out of the track and lay it flat on a protected surface (like a moving blanket).
  • Clean the Track: PRO TIP: Before installing the new rollers, use a vacuum and a damp cloth to remove all sand, pet hair, and debris from the bottom track. A dirty track is the primary cause of premature roller failure.
  • Retract the Wheels: Ensure the new rollers are in their "fully retracted" (lowest) position before snapping them into the door rail; this provides the clearance needed to lift the door back onto the track.
  • Level the Door: Once the door is back in place, use a screwdriver to adjust both rollers until the gap between the door and the side jamb is perfectly even from top to bottom.
  • Dry Lubrication: Do not use thick grease or oil on the track. Use a Dry Silicone Spray on the rollers and track to provide lubrication without attracting dirt and grit.

Heavy duty chewing, not heavy duty dropping
Size: X-Large, Color: Textured Ring
My super chewer loved this toy, great shape, provided long lasting entertainment. However, when he dropped it from his mouth onto our epoxy flooring (not a far drop as he’s only 50lbs) one chunk broke clean off at the 2 smaller joints. Although we kept the larger piece for a while, a similar drop a week later broke it again. Considering this is fairly inexpensive, I wasn’t expecting it to be indestructible. It’s just strange how it broke. Will probably buy again to test one more time.

My dog loves these things
Size: Large, Color: Femur Bone
My dog loves these things. They don't smell at all. It was a great price. It's big enough for my Frenchie. It's pretty durable but he is able to gnaw it rough so I do have to replace them periodically.

About as indestructible as it gets. It's just very hard molded material. I always make sure to wash the dog toys before letting them play, who knows where they come from. Picture is after hours/days of the built playing with it

Old Faithful
Size: Large, Color: Wishbone, Size: Large, Color: Wishbone
AmStaf/Lab loves this product. I am still concerned about him ingesting the sharp little pieces he gnaws off, but he seems OK after three months of using these. Tried the Nylabone natural/wild products but they are not usable as a "chew" and disappear within minutes, nay seconds! -So here I am back to the "strong chew" wishbone product which makes my dog happy and keeps him busy not eating my shoes. (Be warned though, these are worse than Legos if accidentally stepped on!)

Perfect for small dog that likes to chew
Size: Small, Color: Textured Ring
Just got this today (small size for my 15 lb dog) and she loves it. Perfect size for her small mouth and teeth. Keeps her busy and even tires her out and rests a while, Between this type of dog toys and ones that squeak she is having a great time
