If the door is off track, crooked, unusually heavy, or has a visibly broken spring or cable, avoid operating it.

What to do when a garage door comes off track

Stop using the opener.
Keep people, pets, and vehicles clear of the door.
Do not try to force rollers back into the track while the door is under load.
Look for cable, roller, track, or impact damage from a safe distance.

An off-track garage door can be unstable. Professional inspection is the safer next step.

If the simple checks above do not identify a safe, obvious fix, call for garage door service rather than continuing to operate a door that may be mechanically damaged.
