Old pocket door hardware is prone to falling off the track. Best to use new hardware.

The Johnson hardware pocket door frames have great reviews.

I wrote an article on pocket door restoration. Pick up the November, 1996, issue of Old House Journal; it may be useful.

Only because I'm a big treb fan: Make that 1994, not 1996, p30:

I saw a youtube video a while ago about very good pocket tracking.

I'm putting several in in an arts&crafts remodel and I've had a lot of grief with cheap tracking in the past so I'm starting my research ...

Twenty years ago already. Thanks.

Thanks for the article. I have contacted the Richards- Wilcox company , and they were very helpful in supplying the info on all the parts I need. Since the door still has the wheels with their name on it, it made that easy. The hard part is that I realize I will have to pretty much tear down one side of the wall to put up the supports and the header. Not looking forward to that , but it is what it is.
