We have this screen door that has no markings, model number nothing. The bottom of the screen has to screw holes, but no screw and no mechanism inside to lift the wheel for adjusting. I have new wheels mounted inside the screen but no way to adjust them.
Any ideas? The zoomed in pic shows the screw hole on the bottom

Do you know the brand of the door? They come as a a set. Are there wheels on the top also? Sometimes there will be a slider spring at the top instead of wheels. If so it will be an Andersen.
Remove the wheel and go to SWISCO.COM and try to match the wheel. This may tell you the brand and if they have it they can also provide the extra hardware to allow adjustments.

That might just be a drain hole. Check the face edge of the door - top or bottom - to see if there are holes that expose adjuster screws.
