Garage Door Garage Door Track Repair Live Oak, TX
Horizontal and vertical track repair for sectional doors. Bent rails are straightened or replaced, alignment is laser-checked, and brackets are re-anchored to spec.
When you book garage door track repair in Live Oak, you get a tech who knows Bexar County — Live Oak lies within Bexar County, in Texas. We serve Live Oak and the surrounding area and nearby Universal City, Selma, Converse, and Windcrest every day.
The environment around Live Oak is unforgiving on hardware. A warm, humid climate of sultry summers, abundant rainfall, and damp conditions that work hard on metal hardware means morning condensation that collects on cold metal hardware, corrosion that creeps across hardware in the muggy air, and storm-season wind that stresses panels and bottom seals, so we build every quote around durability.
Most Live Oak service tickets come down to moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, pitted galvanized hardware on older doors, degraded weatherstripping from UV and moisture, and mildew and rust on shaded, north-facing doors. We carry the springs, cables, rollers, and opener boards to handle all of them out of one truck.
Track repair covers the rails that guide the door's rollers from closed to fully open. Tracks bend from vehicle impact, twist from heavy door weight on under-spec rails, separate from masonry as anchors loosen, and rust from coastal exposure. A door with a damaged track doesn't roll smoothly — it binds, jumps the rail, or stops short. Track repair re-straightens, re-anchors, and where necessary replaces the bent section so the door tracks straight again.
We use a laser alignment tool to verify the track sits parallel to its mate within tolerance. Eyeballing tracks for plumb is unreliable; the laser catches twist and tilt that the eye misses. After alignment, brackets are re-anchored to manufacturer torque spec — under-torqued brackets are a slow-motion failure waiting to happen.
Bent sections that can't be straightened are replaced from stock. We carry 2-inch and 3-inch tracks in galvanized steel and the bracket families for the major door brands. Most track repairs are completed in 60–90 minutes. Severely damaged tracks from major impact may require partial track replacement and a roller inspection (impact often damages the rollers and panel mounts simultaneously).
Roller comes out of the channel mid-travel. Stop using the door — the next cycle could leave the door off-track entirely.
Visible bend or kink in the track
Vehicle impact, ladder strike, or shelf collapse against the track all cause visible bends. Repair before continued operation.
Door makes scraping or grinding sound
Track misalignment or roller bind causes audible scraping. Often easy to fix in the early stage; expensive to fix after the rollers also damage.
Track separating from wall
Brackets pulling loose from masonry or framing show as gaps between the track and the wall. Re-anchor before track shifts further.
Door uneven side-to-side
If one side of the door is higher than the other when fully closed, one track may have settled or shifted.
Common causes & what we fix
Vehicle impact
Backing into the door or sliding the car into the open track is the most common cause of bent rails. Often comes with associated panel damage.
Bracket anchor failure
Anchors pull from masonry or framing over years of cycle vibration. Re-anchoring to fresh holes restores hold.
Rust through
Coastal corrosion eats through track bottom where water pools. Replacement section with galvanized track stops the progression.
Under-spec track for door weight
Builder installs occasionally pair light-gauge track with heavy doors. The track flexes over time and develops bend.
Settling building
Foundation movement shifts walls and the brackets that anchor to them. Tracks twist as a result.
