Our Track Repair Services

Our team will thoroughly inspect your garage door tracks, identifying misalignments, bends, wheel or lubrication issues, or damage. We’ll carefully realign the tracks and repair or replace any damaged components to restore your door to proper working condition. Our precise adjustments will ensure that your door glides effortlessly along the tracks, reducing strain on the opener and extending the lifespan of your garage door system.

Properly aligned tracks are essential for your garage door's safe and efficient operation. Ignoring track issues can lead to more significant problems, including costly repairs or complete system failure. Regular track maintenance and prompt repairs can save you time, money, and headaches.

Types of tracks we can repair and replace:

• Standard Lift Track  - This is the most common type of track used in garages with sufficient headroom above the door (about 12-18 inches) that we repair. The door moves vertically for a short distance and then transitions to a horizontal path along the ceiling.
• Vertical Lift Track - This track system we repair is designed for doors that move vertically along the wall without curving into a horizontal position. It's often used in commercial garages or buildings with tall ceilings where the door does not need to rest along the ceiling.
• High Lift Track - This track system combines standard and vertical lift tracks. It raises the door higher on the wall before curving it along the ceiling, allowing for more overhead space in the garage.
• Low Headroom Track—This track we repair is designed for garages with limited headroom. This system allows the door to operate in spaces with minimal clearance above the door. The track typically has two separate tracks for the rollers, one for lifting and another for the door to follow along the ceiling.
• Follow-the-Roof Track - This track system follows the slope of the garage roof, allowing the door to move along a customized path that matches the angle of the ceiling. It's ideal for unique architectural setups.
• Dual Track System—This setup that we repair is a little more complicated. It features a second set of tracks to accommodate a specific type of door movement, such as split or carriage-style doors. The second track allows the garage door to open differently than a traditional one-piece door.
