How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: A misaligned door can fall or jam. If there is severe distortion, call a door specialist.
Steps:
- Disconnect opener: Use the manual release to separate the CAME operator from the door.
- Move door by hand: Raise and lower the door manually to locate binding points.
- Inspect tracks: Look for bends, dents, or misaligned brackets. Gently straighten minor bends and tighten loose fasteners.
- Check rollers: Spin each roller by hand; replace any that are seized or heavily worn.
Do not rely on the opener to force a misaligned door; correct the door hardware first.
