Without garage door rollers, you’d find it incredibly difficult to raise and lower your garage door on a daily basis. Garage door rollers are small wheels placed inside the door tracks that facilitate smooth, efficient movement of the door up and down. When in good condition, the rollers should spin freely within the track, but if they’re deteriorating in quality, they’ll often make a grinding noise while the door is in motion. Over time, damaged rollers can damage the garage door track or even guide the door off track.

By keeping garage door rollers well-maintained and replacing damaged pieces as needed, homeowners can ensure the dependable, safe use of their garage doors and prevent additional problems.
