Repair cracked, bent or damaged panels, or reinforce a weak section, when the rest of the door is sound.
A cracked or bent panel changes more than the look of a door. A weak panel can flex, bind in the tracks and strain the hardware. Small cracks, dents and cracked windows can often be repaired or reinforced. Homeowners in Nashville ask about panel repair after a car bump, a storm, a fallen branch or a stray basketball.
We inspect the damaged section and the sections around it, since impact can twist the whole door. Minor damage can be repaired with reinforcing struts, filler and paint. A cracked or badly bent section may be better replaced, and we explain the options, including a matching panel. We also check hinges, rollers and tracks, because damage often reaches the hardware. We also tell you what a repair will not do. A reinforced section can look and work well, but heavy creasing may never disappear completely, and we say so up front so there are no surprises when the work is done.
Small dents and cracks can be reinforced and finished, and severe damage calls for a new section.
Adding a strut or a stiffener restores strength to a weak section and helps the door run straight.
A cracked window pane can often be replaced without touching the rest of the section.
An impact that damages a panel often bends a hinge or track, so we check the whole door.
