RockOla 1422

Just bought a 1422 and the front door sags. Is there a way to correct this issue. I can get the door to close but I have to pick up on it when closing. Also who and where is the best place to get parts for this machine. Thanks for your time!

Get a cinch with double ended eyelet bolts and strong wire - secure the
wire ends diagonally across the wooden door on the inside so when you
tighten the cinch (in the center of the two hunks of braided wire (I did
say STRONG wire)) it pulls the opposite corners true.

Think swinging cattle ranch gate...

Take the complete door apart.
Re-glue it and rebuild it.
A lot of work but it will hold for another 50 years.

Those cabinets usually have a problem with loose wood joints at the base
where it sticks out at the bottom .

Tip the whole jukebox on its back and check the bottom parts . I fixed 2
of these . Also clean & oil the little wheel on the bottom of the door .
