When to replace them. Worn V-wheel bearings are the usual cause of a sliding gate that grinds, judders or drags as it travels, and of a gate that sits low at one end. Replace wheels in pairs so the gate stays level and the load stays even.
What else you may need. If the brackets are rusted or you are hanging a new gate, add V-wheel mounting plates. For the full range of wheels, guide rollers, catches and drive chain, see sliding gate hardware.
