Garage Door Hanging Crooked: What's Happening to Your Edwardsville Home
When your garage door hangs visibly crooked or sits unevenly in the frame, it's a sign of cable failure, broken spring, or roller derailment - and continuing to operate it will cause more damage.
Common causes for crooked door alignment repair in Edwardsville: snapped lift cable on one side, broken spring causing imbalance, roller off track on one side, bent track section, panel damage causing twist.
What to do first: stop using the door, photograph the visible misalignment, check for visible damage to cables on both sides, look for any panel or hinge damage, leave the door in current position.
⚠️ Important safety note: a crooked door can fall, twist further, or jam during attempted operation - professional repair required.

Edwardsville Garage Door Maintenance Schedule
A consistent maintenance schedule extends your garage door's life by 5-10 years and prevents the vast majority of emergency repairs. Here's the schedule we recommend for Edwardsville homeowners based on local climate and typical wear patterns:
Monthly visual inspection (10 minutes): Look for fraying cables, gaps in springs, loose hardware, worn rollers. Manual balance test by disconnecting the opener and lifting halfway. Test the safety reverse with a 2x4 placed flat where the door closes. Listen for any new sounds during operation.
Quarterly maintenance (30 minutes): Lubricate all moving parts with white lithium grease (NOT WD-40). Tighten visible hardware on hinges and brackets. Clean tracks of dirt and debris. Replace remote and keypad batteries. Test sensor alignment by waving an object across the photo-eye beam.
Annual professional tune-up ($99-199): Full safety inspection covering spring tension, cable condition, roller wear, hinge inspection, track alignment, opener diagnostic, all safety systems test. This single annual visit prevents most emergency repairs and is the highest ROI maintenance you can do for your Edwardsville home. We handle the entire process in 45-60 minutes including a written report of any concerns identified during the inspection.

Common Questions From Kansas City Metro Homeowners
How quickly can you arrive for service?

ASAP emergency calls including broken springs blocking your car or doors stuck open get prioritized and usually arrive within 1-2 hours. Standard appointments can be scheduled in morning, midday, afternoon, or evening windows depending on your preference. After-hours emergency service is available 24/7 with a 25-50 percent surcharge over standard rates.
Do you charge a service fee just to come out for an estimate?
No. Our estimates are 100 percent free across our entire service area. The technician comes out, inspects the door, gives you a written quote. If you do not approve the work, we leave at no charge. You only pay if you approve the work. Many competitors charge a service fee or trip charge - we do not. We believe a free estimate is the right thing to do because it lets you make an informed decision without pressure.
What kind of warranty do you offer?
All repairs come with written warranties typically 5 years on parts and 1 year on labor for repairs. New door installations carry a 10-year manufacturer warranty plus our 1-year installation warranty. We email you the warranty details after every job. If anything goes wrong within the warranty period, call us and we come back at no charge. We document warranty terms clearly so there is no confusion later. Warranty is valid for the original customer at the original service address.

Are your technicians employees or subcontractors?
Every technician on our trucks is a full-time OnPoint employee, paid hourly, not a subcontractor paid on commission. This matters because subcontractors race through jobs to maximize their commission, often cutting corners. Our employees take time to do the job right because they are paid for time and judged on quality. They go through ongoing training on the latest opener systems, smart home integrations, and door styles. They show up in marked trucks wearing OnPoint uniforms with photo ID.
Do you handle commercial and residential work?
Both. We service residential single-family homes, condos and townhomes with attached garages, and multi-unit residential properties. We also service commercial overhead doors, loading docks, rolling steel doors, security shutters, and commercial openers throughout the Kansas City Metro. We offer service contracts for property managers and businesses with multiple doors. Commercial service typically requires specialized parts and additional safety procedures - we have the certifications and equipment for both.
