Doors off track or stuck in Reno
A door that has come off its tracks, sits crooked or jams part-way is unsafe to keep using. It can fall or damage panels, so it's best left closed until it's fixed.

Reno is high desert: dry, sunny and windy, with cold nights that freeze and thaw for much of the year.
Reno's dry heat and wind are hard on weather seals, and big temperature swings wear springs and openers. If the door won't lift after a loud bang, it's almost always a broken spring.
Don't try to replace torsion springs yourself. They hold a lot of tension and cause serious injuries every year.
Common questions
Can I push it back on track?
It isn't recommended. The door is heavy and may be under spring tension.
What causes this?
Usually a hit from a car, a broken cable or worn rollers.
Can I open the door with a broken spring?
It's not safe to force it. The door can be very heavy without the spring. Leave it closed until it's fixed if you can.
