When a garage door comes off track, it is often a sign of underlying hardware damage or proper weight imbalance. We recently responded to a Sunday call in Meriden, CT, where a homeowner reported an off-track garage door.

Upon arriving at the job site, our technician performed an inspection and found a damaged cable causing immediate alignment issues. After weighing the garage door to test proper balance, we noted that the existing springs were significantly too weak for the weight of the door.

To resolve the problem completely, we replaced the damaged set of cables, the damaged set of drums, and the weak torsion springs. Installing properly matched hardware ensured the garage door was safely balanced and operating correctly on its tracks once again.
