An off-track door can drop unpredictably, which is a real risk to anything underneath.
We don't recommend it — it's often still under spring tension and can drop if handled improperly.
Worn rollers, a bent track, or a loose mounting bracket are the most common causes.
If you can safely avoid operating it further, wait for a technician.
We assess the actual damage on-site before recommending the pricier option.
Cost depends on whether it's a simple realignment or requires roller or track replacement.
