Garage Door Bent Track Repair

The metal tracks on either side of your garage door guide the rollers as it opens and closes. A bump from a car, a loose bracket, or years of wear can bend or misalign a track, and a bent track makes the door stick, grind, or come off entirely. EZ Garage Door Repair straightens, realigns, and replaces garage door tracks across Rockville, MD and the surrounding Maryland, Virginia, and DC areas.

Signs of a bent or misaligned track

• The door binds, sticks, or grinds at the same spot
• Visible gaps between the rollers and the rail
• The track looks bent, dented, or pulled away from the wall
• The door is crooked or has come off its track
• Rattling or scraping noises during operation

Straighten, realign, or replace?

Minor bends and misalignment can often be straightened and re-secured. Badly kinked or crushed tracks are safer to replace outright so the rollers travel cleanly. We assess the damage, tighten and realign the brackets, and make sure the door is plumb and balanced before we finish.

Don't force a door that's off track

Forcing a door that's binding on a bent track can damage the panels, rollers, and opener. Stop using it and call EZ, we'll get your door back on track safely, usually the same day, and give you a free estimate first.
