A garage door that shakes or jerks when opening in Huntsville is typically worn rollers, loose bolts, or bent track. It's worth fixing before parts wear further.

Why does this keep happening in Huntsville? A lot of it comes down to the local climate. Heat and humidity takes its toll — humidity corrodes hardware, and falling limbs dent panels — so a garage door shakes when opening is one of the more common calls our Huntsville crews run.

What might be wrong

Worn rollers
Old rollers wobble in the track and shake the door.
