Door off track!!
Is your garage door off track? That’s definitely an annoying problem. Fortunately, you can fix it yourself or call a professional for help. However, because your overhead door is off track, it’s important to exercise caution around it. Don’t allow small children, pets, or anyone else near the door until it’s been repaired. You also don’t want to try and “force” the door back on track or kick it, otherwise, you’ll find yourself having to repair a dented garage door too. Not only does it mean your garage door won’t work until it’s fixed but it also leaves your home unsecured. You can fix it yourself with a few tools and an afternoon unless there’s also a problem with your garage door spring. Then you might want to call in a professional.
First Things First: Stop Using Your Garage Door
What is absolutely critical is that you stop using your garage door until it has been repaired. Don’t try to force it, even just to get your car out so you can get to work. Hopefully, this could very well be an inexpensive and simple repair. Try to force the door open or continue to use the door, and you could seriously damage the track. This easy repair then could end up costing you hundreds of dollars.
If you are absolutely stuck and can’t get the door back on track yourself, give us a call. This is the very reason we offer 24/7 emergency garage door repair service. Don’t worry. We’ll have the door fixed as soon as possible so you can get on with your life.
