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

Why does this keep happening in Rockville? 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 crooked or uneven garage door is one of the more common calls our Rockville crews run.

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 Rockville pro

We rebalance the door, replace the failed cable or roller, and make sure both sides travel evenly.
