An anti-lift tab in a roller assembly for a door that rides along a fixed beam that does not rotate relative to the roller assembly in use. The anti-lift tab protrudes from the bottom of a face plate with keys molded onto the back face of that plate which interface with keyways contained in a castellated nut and shaft component with internal crew threads. A threaded rod is inserted through the inner diameter of a bearing seated in a roller which rides along a fixed rail. That rod is screwed into the shaft side of the castellated nut and shaft component. A screw attaches the mated thee plate/castellated nut shaft component assembly to the roller/bearing assembly. In this arrangement, the face plate with the anti-lift tab protruding from its bottom will remain fixed and not rotate relative to the roller assembly during translation of the roller assembly on a fixed beam.
