More about this in Woodloch

A garage door track crooked in its mounting means the door is rubbing, binding, or jumping the rollers somewhere along the run, and pushing the opener through it just grinds the rollers against metal that's no longer straight. The fix depends on whether that rail is bent from an impact or eaten through by rust, and those two problems don't get fixed the same way.

Call (346) 220-4724 and a crew working the Woodloch area will sort out which one it is before touching the door.
