A garage door off the tracks in Arlington often follows a bump from a car, a snapped cable, or worn rollers. It's one repair we strongly recommend leaving to a pro.

Why does this keep happening in Arlington? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Freezing winters takes its toll — cold snaps brittle springs, and road salt corrodes hardware — so a garage door off the tracks is one of the more common calls our Arlington crews run.

What might be wrong
