Custom Sliding Doors

[sled]

Hello!

I want to build my own sliding doors from MDF. I was planning to attach an MDF strip at the top and bottom where I've routed out grooves for the wheels of the sliding doors. However, I'm not sure what the "wheels" are called? Does anyone know what can be used for this? I believe I've seen that you can route into the doors and then attach some kind of hardware with wheels to them...

Tips on hardware/wheels?
Where can they be purchased?

Thankful for answers.

there are ready-made tracks and wheels available for purchase in a package. you simply screw the wheels onto the doors and hang them on the tracks, I've done it myself, are you going to make the doors in MDF? what thickness??

Okay, sounds good. Thanks for the tip

I usually prefer to work with 16 mm.

But the idea is that the sliding doors will be built into a wall and it's quite thin, so it will probably be 12 mm.
