I'm looking for replacement parts for my 1970s National Bi-Fold Doors.
Specifically a top and bottom guide pin for one door (the other pieces are fine).
Picture 1) Original installation instructions.
Picture 2) Full picture of door.
Dimensions: 78.5 inches high, 29.25 inches wide.
Picture 3-5) Picture of functional bottom guide pin in a working door. The plastic cap is a single piece.
dimensions (roughly): length 4.5", width of metal 1/4", width of plastic 3/8".
Picture 6-8 [ran out of pictures]) Picture of functional top guide pin in a working door. The plastic cap is composed of two pieces, a plastic washer and a plastic end piece.
Same dimensions.
Even though the brand is National, the closest bottom piece looks to be this one by Fenestra. I didn't find anything with a two-piece cap like the top piece. I'm not sure whether or not this difference matters.
