What the symptom can mean
Rubbing, scraping, a roller approaching the track edge, or a visible bend can interrupt travel. Impact near the lower track may also change the spacing between tracks.

- Review safety guidance
Details worth observing
Report the location of the bend, whether fasteners appear displaced, and the exact point where rollers bind. Avoid placing fingers between a roller and track.
Safe boundary
Do not hammer the track while the door is loaded or force the opener through resistance. Additional movement can damage rollers, hinges, and panel edges.
How the request is evaluated
A useful inspection considers track spacing, vertical alignment, flag brackets, roller condition, and whether panel damage caused the track symptom.
Prepare the opening
Before requesting garage door track repair, clear only the items you can reach without passing beneath the door. Leave tension hardware and unstable sections undisturbed.
