Hello everyone. This might be a bit of a stretch, but since my antique tractor is sitting in my antique barn, I thought I would stretch it. With all of the knowledge contained here, I figure someone else has had this experience. In a recent windstorm, one of my barn doors came loose, and is hanging by one of the rollers. Nothing is broken, just loose. I found the nut, and the bolt is in good shape. My question is this. What is the best (safest) way to rehang this monster? The door is approximately 14' high and just under 10' wide. It weighs a lot. Theoretically, I should just be able to jack it up, and thread the bolt on the roller onto the captured nut in the bracket. BUT... Once the door is raised to the point where the bolt can be inserted into the bracket, the beam of the doorway is in the way and I don't see how I am going to thread it. I know it was hung somehow, I'm just not sure how. Any advice would be gratefully received. Bill
