Off-track garage door repair
A door that has come off its track is under uneven stress and can fall. If your door is crooked, jammed, or a roller has popped out of the rail, the most important thing is to stop operating it.
Safety first
Right now: keep clear and unplug the opener
Keep people, pets and cars away from the door. Unplug the opener so nobody presses a remote. Don't try to hammer the track back or pull the door down by hand.
What to look for
Why doors come off track
- Backing into the door, or the door closing on a vehicle
- A broken lift cable or spring causing one side to drop
- Bent or loose track sections
- Worn rollers that no longer stay in the rail
- An obstruction in the track while the opener kept pushing

The door is supported so it can't drop while work begins.

Find the cause
Getting it back on the track is half the job — we find out why it came off.
- 03
Repair or replace parts
Bent track, damaged rollers or broken cables are fixed so it doesn't happen again.

Realign and test
Tracks are plumbed and spaced, the door balanced, and the opener's limits rechecked.

Questions
Garage Door Off-Track Repair questions
Can I put the door back on the track myself?
We advise against it. Off-track doors are often under spring tension and can shift or fall without warning.
Will I need a new door?
Often not. Many off-track doors only need track, roller or cable repairs. Badly bent sections may need replacing.
