Crooked Door? in New Orleans, LA

A garage door that's crooked — one side higher than the other, or the bottom not level — has a mechanical imbalance. The most common cause is a lift cable that has snapped or popped off the drum on one side, letting that side of the door drop. The result is a door that jams and won't close properly.We diagnose the cause by inspecting both lift cables, the cable drums, the torsion spring, and rollers on both sides. We safely release the tension, fix the mechanical imbalance, and test the door through full cycles to confirm it's level.
