LE Johnson Hardware

If you're house is like most, if you have sliding bypass doors in your closets, you have really cheesy hardware. When we built our house 9 years ago, we bought the hardware that menards carried, Lowes and Home Depot carry the same crap. At least the stuff is cheap, less than $20 if I'm remembering right.

Stuff is still crap though. Even looks cheap, and every time my kids so much as touch a closet door, they fall of the track. Here's a picture of the problem

and as you can see, the wheel is off the track.

After some searching, I found a company called LE Johnson Hardware, and they make some serious good stuff. High quality hardware for all types of doors. I got a total 6 of thier heavy duty bypass door hardware with valence. This is serious stuff, with an extruded alluminum double H beam track, and captured 3 wheel trucks to hold the doors. Here's a (no) comparison shot

Big difference, eh?

And here's the finished job

And my kids will never knock them off the tracks again.
