Garage Door Garage Door Hinge Repair Scissors, TX
Hinge and bracket replacement for sectional doors. Worn hinges cause clunks, panel sag, and roller binding — we replace with heavy-gauge steel and torque to manufacturer spec.
Local matters for garage door hinge repair. In Scissors and neighboring Donna, Midway South, South Alamo, and Midway North, the failures we address most are rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, and degraded weatherstripping from UV and moisture, all backed by our 10-year workmanship guarantee.
Set in Texas's humid subtropical region, Scissors has a warm, humid climate of sultry summers, abundant rainfall, and damp conditions that work hard on metal hardware. The practical result is intense UV that degrades rubber weatherstripping, morning condensation that collects on cold metal hardware, and summer heat and moisture that swell wood doors and seize rollers, which is exactly what our parts selection targets.
If your Scissors door is acting up, it's often rusted bottom brackets on damp slabs, storm-driven debris and water in the tracks, moisture-tripped openers and sensors after storms, and degraded weatherstripping from UV and moisture. Our techs run a full safety and balance check so a small fix doesn't turn into a repeat visit.
Hinges connect adjacent door sections and let them articulate as the door rolls up. There are typically 3 hinges per joint between sections (left, center, right) and 4–5 joints on a standard door, totaling 12–15 hinges per door. Cracked or worn hinges cause clunks during travel, panel sag, roller stem twisting, and accelerated wear on adjacent components. Replacement is straightforward and often dramatically improves operation.
We carry hinges in standard residential gauge (#1 through #5 positions) and heavy-gauge for commercial or oversized doors. The position number determines hinge thickness — center hinges are thicker than edge hinges because they bear more load. We replace by exact position and gauge match, plus a few extras if visible wear exists at adjacent positions.
Hinge work usually pairs naturally with roller replacement (roller stems thread through the hinge knuckles, so doing both at once is more efficient than separate visits). If both rollers and hinges are due, the package price is typically 20–30% less than doing each separately.
Worn hinge knuckles or loose hinge pins clunk as the door articulates between flat and curved track. Replacement eliminates.
Visible crack in hinge
Hinges are stamped steel — visible cracks mean the hinge is failing structurally. Replace before complete failure.
Door panel sags between rollers
A failing hinge can no longer hold the panel rigid. Panel sag is the visible result.
Roller stem appears bent or twisted
Twisted roller stems usually indicate the hinge is allowing the roller to flex out of alignment. Replace both.
Gap between adjacent sections when closed
Worn hinge joints can't pull adjacent sections tight together. Gap is visible from inside the garage.
Common causes & what we fix
Metal fatigue
Stamped steel hinges flex slightly with every cycle. Tens of thousands of cycles fatigue the metal and crack initiates.
Under-spec hinge for door weight
Builder installs occasionally use lighter hinges than the door warrants. Higher-position hinges fail first.
Coastal corrosion
Uncoated hinges rust in salt air, weakening the metal. Galvanized hinges resist this far better.
Missing lubrication on the pin
Dry hinge pins gall and seize. Lubrication during annual service prevents.
Impact damage
Vehicle or equipment impact can crack the hinge directly. Often comes with associated panel and roller damage.
