We ended up fixing i.
Garage door bracket ripped off.
Adjustable to fit different size sections and some are non adjustable and fit specific size doors.
After taking a closer look at the problem i realized the aluminum of the garage door was not strong enough to endure constant use.
My garage door bracket which connects the garage door arm to the garage door ripped out of the garage door.
I got a quote from a garage door repair company and they said i would have to replace the whole door.
A strut is a metal piece that runs the full width of the garage door.
In this situation it may be possible to install a strut to support the garage door panel.
One morning on our way out for the day we tried to open the garage door but the opener pulled out of the door and broke the door mount.
I didn t have more time to wait for a second opinion so i decided to fix the problem myself.
If the piece of metal that broke off your garage door is not where the j bar connects to your garage door it may still be possible to repair the garage door panel.
