Garage Door Off Track Naples

A door that jumps the track is usually still salvageable — if you stop trying to move it right now.

Running the opener will bend brackets and can rip the door apart. Unplug it and step away.

Support the door if it's partway open

Prop it with a 2x4 if you can do so safely, then wait for us.

Take a photo
