Roller door guide rusted

Post by neil1967 »

Hello

I noticed rust trails weeping down centre panel,
I took roller cover guide off and noticed rust
hole between cover u guide where rubber sits
and roller guide..I started scraping and grinding
and now I have a hold 5 inches long by 2 wide.

A) is the roller guide plate spot welded to centre
panel ?

B) is there a repair panel ?

Any information would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Neil

I bought this panel from Plasticman, great repair panel. Just take your time replacing it, measure everything!
I also replaced the roller guide assembly, bought from Brickwerks.
It’s a big job, but well worth it.
