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

Why does this keep happening in Memphis? 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 Memphis crews run.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your garage door shakes when opening

Here's what our local techs check first — and what each one usually means.

Worn rollers
Old rollers wobble in the track and shake the door.
Loose hinges and brackets
Vibration loosens hardware, which then rattles.
A bent or dirty track
Debris and bends make the door bind and jump.
