Garage door rollers are the wheels that allow your garage door to travel smoothly along its tracks. They are typically made of steel or nylon and have bearings for easy movement. Properly functioning rollers reduce friction, noise, and wear on the entire garage door system. If rollers are worn or damaged, they can cause the door to operate poorly, become noisy, or even get stuck. Replacing them ensures smooth operation.

Garage door sensors can malfunction due to dirt or debris blocking the lenses, misalignment, or a loss of power. If the sensors are knocked out of alignment, they may not be able to detect an obstruction, causing the door to reverse unexpectedly. Damaged wiring or a faulty sensor unit can also be the cause. Cleaning and ensuring proper alignment are the first steps in troubleshooting these issues.
