  • Brand: Richards & Wilcox
  • Condition: Very good overall condition. Needs to be gone over to your specifics as they have just been lightly cleaned with a toothbrush & Liquid Gold, I did not use 0000 steel wool as I thought but it has been a month+ since cleaned. I saw some grunge I missed in the lettering. The top Wheel appear have bearings & I did clean them some & put a drop of oil on each wheel. Wheels all have edge flat spots & little casting errors, 2 may have a chip that is not that big (see photos)...otherwise most is in the casting process & should not effect how they function as they were in use for heavy fire doors when taken down. NO TRACK...I was going to have them made to my needs & I had only enough time to just get the rollers as they were bolted on the doors. You can possibly find track online. Please see the Description & Photos as they are part of the description. Please ask any questions before bidding...I have 2 sets, this is one of them. These are the last of this style I have.

    PAIR Antique / Vintage Richards & Wilcox Barn Door Rollers, 542A, ORIGINAL PAINT, 9" Long X 4" Wide
    1 PAIR of Antique / Vintage Richards & Wilcox Barn or FIRE Door Rollers, 542A, ORIGINAL PAINT,
    9" Long X 4" Widest Point
    Used in the basement of a large department store these retain a lot of the
    O
    riginal Black Paint & have just mild surface rust
    on the unpainted surfaces from dampness, not weathering I did not clean them off wit 0000 steel wool, that would help.
    These are as they came off the FIRE DOORS outside of a light cleaning described above.
    The upper wheel has bearings, bottom wheel does not.
    The large wheels may have some flat spots or nicks on the edges...
    this was mainly in the casting in each one as there is original paint
    on some areas of the edge & it should not effect how they work.
    This pair may have each wheel showing a small chip or flat spot in the casting...
    see photos
    .
    Use as they are or do some more cleanings...the flash makes them look like they
    have more rust than they do in natural light,
    photos on lighter wood shows them outside in natural full sunlight.
    They should clean up nicely with steel wool or on a buffer with a very fine grit on unpainted areas
    or can be repainted if you like.
    I believe they took 5/16" to maybe 3/8" diameter bolts.
    Photos are part of the description.
    I bought these for myself decades back for a
    barn conversion to house project that did not happen...
    I bought the best quality I could get for my needs.
    You can hang a couple inch thick door from this & move it easily if done right.
    Our barn door was about 12' Long x 7' High & 2"+  Thick & I opened it myself as a small child with good hangers.
    Great for Lofts, Barns, Garages even cabinets or anywhere you want a
    good looking long lasting ANTIQUE hanger for your door.
    I could not pick up the FIRE DOOR by myself these were mountrd to.
    I HAVE ANOTHER PAIR THAT MATCHES THESE IN A DIFFERENT AUCTION...
    THEY ARE THE LAST 2 Pr. OF THIS TYPE I HAVE
    I am starting these for less than what I sold the 1st. pair for as the paint is not quite as good.
    This was the last pair I sold; Item #
