Garage door tracks provide the essential pathway for smooth door operation, but they can become bent, misaligned, or damaged over time. When tracks are compromised, they cause uneven door movement, accelerated roller wear, and can prevent the door from opening or closing properly.

Why Choose Our Track Repair
Bent or damaged garage door tracks can make your door inoperable and cause extensive wear to other components. Our track repair service restores proper alignment for smooth, safe operation.
Why Track Damage Creates Cascading Problems
Bent or misaligned tracks force rollers to travel uneven paths, creating excessive friction that wears out rollers, cables, and even opener motors prematurely. Track damage can also cause doors to bind, jump the track entirely, or create safety hazards. Professional track repair prevents these issues and ensures your garage door operates safely and efficiently for years to come.
Our Comprehensive Track Repair Process
1
Track Damage Assessment
We inspect both horizontal and vertical tracks for bends, misalignment, loose mounting brackets, and wear patterns. We identify the source of damage and assess whether straightening, replacement, or reinforcement is needed for each affected section.
2
Track Straightening & Alignment
Using specialized tools and techniques, we carefully straighten bent track sections while maintaining proper curvature and dimensions. We ensure tracks are level, plumb, and properly spaced for optimal roller travel.
3
Mounting & Reinforcement
We secure all track mounting brackets and add reinforcement brackets where needed to prevent future misalignment. Proper mounting ensures tracks maintain their position despite vibration and heavy use.
4
System Integration & Testing
We verify proper track integration with rollers, cables, and the opener system. The door undergoes full operational testing to ensure smooth, quiet movement without binding or unusual noises.

Frequently Asked Questions
Signs of track damage include doors that bind, jump, or make grinding noises during operation, visible bends or kinks in the track, uneven gaps between the door and frame, or increased resistance when opening manually. Doors that suddenly stop partway through their travel often indicate track misalignment.
Many bent tracks can be professionally straightened, especially if the damage is minor. However, severely damaged or corroded tracks often need section replacement. Our technicians assess each situation and recommend the most cost-effective solution while ensuring safety and proper operation.
Annual maintenance inspections should include track evaluation. However, tracks should be checked after any impact damage, unusual operation, or if you notice increased operating noise. Regular lubrication and visual inspections can help catch issues before they become serious.
Track damage typically results from impact (vehicles backing into doors), overloading (placing heavy objects against closed doors), settling foundations, or corrosion. Poor installation can also cause premature misalignment. Preventive measures include proper clearance and avoiding impacts.
Costs vary based on damage severity and whether straightening or replacement is needed. Simple straightening might cost a few hundred dollars, while extensive track replacement can range from $800-$2,000. We provide free estimates and can often complete repairs in one visit.
