Screen Door Closer Pulleys Needed - dthollis1961 - 01-10-2008 15:35

The screen door in my 84FC is closed with a spring loaded cable that
runs through 2 small pulleys. The pulleys are small...about 3/4" or
maybe 1/2" diameter. One pulley is worn through, so I need to come up
with a replacement. Where would I find one?

Just a thought, how about http://www.westmarine.com and look at sailboat hardware.

I found wheels that worked at Lowe's or HD. In the sliding screen door area.

IF and when you find the pulley wheels , Try using blind cord,
instead of steel cable, the cable chews up the little wheels.

When we had the '81FC, I rebuilt the spring thing with bungee cord. Getting the right length was a little tricky but it worked good. Naturally, bigger wheels are needed.

Thanks everyone for ideas. I picked up a door roller the other day
that has a bearing in it, it's larger diameter though. I looked
really hard at brass cabinet door knobs...most of them have about the
same size pulley built into them.
