Off-Track Garage Door Repair
Garage doors ride along metal tracks to open and close. If the door edges come out of alignment with tracks or the tracks sustain damage, the operation grinds to a halt. Quick action prevents worsening, so call us right away for:
● Precision realignment if your door edges shift from tracks
● Track straightening if bending is hindering smooth travel
● Rollers/brackets tightening if entry/exit of tracks is the culprit
● Cable-balanced re-threading to rectify diagonal door travel
● Full track replacement if existing tracks are damaged beyond repair
With precise adjustments and replacements where necessary, we’ll have your garage door travelling correctly inside tracks for safety and convenience.
DIY Garage Door Repairs to Avoid
While some local garage door repairs like lubricating rollers look simple for DIY, certain components contain high tension and pressure. Meddling without know-how can cause injury - and likely intensify any problems.
- Garage Door Springs: The immense tension load makes spring repairs dangerous if mishandled.
- Garage Door Cables: Frayed or broken cables can unleash lethal tension if released incorrectly.
- Garage Door Sections: Attempting realignment without securing appropriately risks more damage.
- Garage Door Openers: Internal opener components are complex and contain live circuits.
