Frequently Asked Questions

What causes a garage door to come off its tracks?

Possible causes include vehicle impact, a broken cable or roller, damaged track sections, and worn hardware.

Can I put the door back on the tracks myself?

We strongly advise against it. The door panels can be damaged and the springs are still under tension. Improper realignment can cause the door to fall on your vehicle or injure someone. This is a job for a trained technician.

Will the panels be damaged from going off track?

It depends on how far the door moved off track and whether it was forced. We'll inspect the panels and explain any needed repair.

How can I reduce the risk of another off-track problem?

Maintenance can identify worn rollers, loose hardware, and track alignment issues. Ask about our tune-up service.

When is the repair completed?

Repair work is completed the same day the technician arrives. Emergency service is available 24/7 for doors that are stuck open.
