I have pocket doors in two of my bathrooms. The bearings need lubrication
badly. They squeak and do not move freely.

How can I get to the wheel assemblies from which the doors are suspended?
There are probably two? Is there a way of doing this without disassembling
the wooden covers that hide the roller assemblies? Would hate to tear all
the trim apart.

Thanks

Walter

I don't know about the WD40 he applies at the end. There are a few
videos online you might want to browse through for other ideas.

I was looking at mine and there is a latch that may allow the door to be
released w/o removing the trim.

Yup. Mine has a little white lever that allows the wheel assembly to
come off the door then slide out the end.
