More about this in Hilshire Village

A dented garage door panel from a backed-up car, a stray basketball, or a piece of equipment leaned against the door is usually cosmetic — but on a steel door, a hard enough dent can also throw off the panel's alignment with its neighbors, which affects how smoothly the whole door travels.
