  • If there is dirt or hard grease in the garage door tracks, then clean the tracks with a good cleaner. Clean the rollers too and then wipe everything thoroughly to be dry.
  • Check out for any loose hardware in the garage door. Tighten whatever is loose in order to make it function properly. Check the plates in the swing up doors where the spring is mounted. Tighten if any loose screw is there.
  • Check the hinges in the roll up doors that hold the sections of the garage doors together. Replace any damaged hinge or tighten the loose screws. One side sagging can be fixed by tightening or servicing the hinges of the door. If any screw hole is enlarged, then fix a new screw which covers the hole and tighten it. Use a hollow fiber plug dipped in carpenter’s glue with the new screw.
