Garage Door Tracks

Shop garage door tracks in Montreal or request help confirming the right track before ordering. Garage door tracks guide the rollers and help the door move safely and smoothly as it opens and closes.

Garage door tracks are not universal. The correct track depends on the door size, track side, vertical track height, horizontal track setup, curve/radius, roller size, door type and existing hardware. Please confirm the track type, side and measurements before ordering.

Garage Door Tracks in Montreal

Garage door tracks are the metal guide rails installed on the sides and overhead area of a sectional garage door. The rollers move inside the tracks, allowing the garage door to travel up, down and around the curve as it opens and closes.

A damaged, bent, loose or incorrect track can cause the door to move unevenly, bind, rub, come off track or become unsafe to operate. Choosing the correct replacement track is important for proper alignment and safe door movement.

Common garage door track types

Garage door tracks can vary depending on the door system and installation setup. The correct track must match the door and existing hardware.

• Vertical tracks: the side tracks that run up along the left and right sides of the garage door opening.
• Horizontal tracks: the overhead tracks that guide the door back into the garage when open.
• Curved track sections: the radius area where the door transitions from vertical movement to horizontal movement.
• Left and right tracks: tracks may be side-specific depending on the setup and damaged area.
• Residential track systems: common on sectional residential garage doors with rollers and hinges.

Common signs you may need track replacement or repair

• The garage door track is bent, twisted or damaged
• The garage door came off track
• The rollers are rubbing, binding or not moving smoothly
• The door opens crooked or unevenly
• The track brackets are loose or damaged
• The door shakes, jams or stops while moving
• The track was hit by a vehicle or damaged by impact
• The vertical or horizontal track no longer lines up properly

Track type, side and measurements must be confirmed

Garage door tracks should not be ordered by appearance alone. Tracks can vary by side, length, curve, radius, width, mounting style and door setup. A left-side vertical track may not match a right-side track, and an overhead track may not match the curved or vertical section.

The correct track may depend on:

• Garage door width and height
• Left side or right side of the door
• Vertical track or horizontal track
• Track radius or curved section style
• Roller size and hinge setup
• Track bracket position
• Door section condition and alignment
• Existing garage door hardware setup

Important: garage door tracks are not opener rails

Garage door tracks are the side and overhead guide rails used by the garage door rollers. They are different from the garage door opener rail, which is the rail connected to the automatic opener motor and trolley.

If you need the rail connected to the opener motor, you may need a garage door opener rail instead of garage door tracks.

Buy the part or request installation

• Buy Part Only: use the add to cart button only if the track type, side and measurements were already confirmed.
• Confirm Track Type + Installation: text us photos first so we can confirm the correct track and installation option.

Pickup and delivery

Garage door tracks can be long or oversized. Local pickup in the Montreal area may be available, and local delivery may require confirmation depending on the track length, quantity and location.
