What is a Sobinco single fixed-height roller wheel
A Sobinco single roller wheel with fixed height is used in various sliding door systems. This type of roller carriage has one wheel and cannot be adjusted in height. The position of the door is therefore determined by the system's construction.
This type of roller wheel is commonly found on older sliding doors and on systems where the adjustment is made in the frame.
Common problems with Sobinco single wheels
✔ sliding door slides with difficulty
✔ wheel no longer turns smoothly
✔ door moves jerkily
✔ wheel is worn out
✔ door no longer runs straight
When one of these problems occurs, it is often necessary to replace the roller wheel.
When should a Sobinco single roller wheel be replaced
Roller wheels wear out from years of use. Especially when dirt or sand gets into the track, the wheel can wear out faster. If the wheel gets damaged or jams, the sliding door can become difficult to operate.
Replacing the roller wheel usually ensures that the door moves smoothly along the track again.
