A crooked or uneven garage door in Newark usually means a cable has slipped or snapped on one side. It's worth fixing quickly before it comes off the track.

There's a local angle to a crooked or uneven garage door in Newark: the area's freezing winters is hard on garage doors — cold snaps brittle springs, and snow & ice jam tracks. Our Newark techs see these failures spike around every January cold snap, so they track down the real cause instead of masking the symptom.

What might be wrong

Common causes when your crooked or uneven garage door

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

A broken or loose cable
When one cable lets go, that side of the door drops and the door tilts.
A roller off the track
A roller out of its rail throws the door out of square.
Uneven spring tension
Mismatched springs can lift one side faster than the other.
How we fix it

Fixed fast by a local Newark pro
