Default front roller keeps falling out of automatic garage door

bend. Is there any way I can close the guide enough to keep the roller
from popping out?


If you can't bend the guide rail "manually" as you've tried, perhaps
you should call a garage door repair company.

Something may be so out of alignment that it's become a danger. Garage
doors are extremely heavy and you don't want to mess with them unless
you are very sure of what you are doing.

I have called a local family owned business in my town 3 times in 20
years and each time have been surprised at how reasonable the cost of
the repair was.
