    or is there such a place as a spare parts place for shower door fittings.

    You could do with the make of the door rather than the supplier. Can you take a photo of the roller as well.

    Thanks

    the door is old 1995, theres no name on it,and here is a photo link(not very sharp) http://i.imgur.com/GXCCt.jpg thanks.

    The image is fine. I dont know the manufacturer of that roller though. Can you ask them the make of the door by any chance


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,830 ✭✭✭horse7


    apparently its the Image Diamond quad door (the older model, approx 10 years old).

    Image are based in ireland. Just outside kilkenny. However there has been a lot of turmoil in the company recently. Just phone them and ask them if they have the parts.

    They will post them out if they have,

    I know it's an old thread but some I have the same problem as of the weekend.

    Where you able to source the brackets/wheels?

    I've two broken one and the remaining two are cracked and approx 12 years old.

    The whole thing just need a good scrub and new brackets.

    Is your door the same make.... Then there should be the same issues.

    I found these replacement brackets but for what they are i think they are on the expensive side - @ €18 a pair

    I was hoping to get 4 for about €20.

    Wow, today I got the prices from Mary:

    4 for €40 +€5 post.

    they are definitely making some money with the rollers.

    Does anyone have a spare roller lying around?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,830 ✭✭✭horse7


    These rollers won't last pissing time. The best thing to do is to make a new one from some stainless steel , the old roller wheels are reusable.They will last longer than the shower unit.

    No means to make one I’m afraid. The original lasted 11 years so need to get something in place
