Fitting new bifold shower door roller

[McStumpy]

Hi,

One of the runner wheels on our bifold broke off recently. I’ve ordered what looks like the same as a replacement but I’m having a problem fitting it.

I’ve tried attaching a picture of the wheel and the mount it screws into.

I tried placing the wheel in the track and then screwing the plastic mount on to the wheel. But the wheel turns with the screw and I can’t get it to thread. The mount itself stops me getting access to hold the wheel with some pliers so I can screw into it.

If I attach the wheel to the mount first, I can’t get it to fit into the track.

Any suggestions gratefully received (my diy skills are pretty much non existent!)


Thanks

You will probably need to remove doors to change wheel .
