What Is Garage Door Section (Panel) Replacement?
A garage door is built from multiple horizontal sections (often called panels). If one section is bent, cracked, or caved in—especially from a car bumping the door—you may be able to replace just the damaged section instead of the entire door.
We’ll confirm whether section replacement is the right move by checking track alignment, hinges/rollers, the opener connection point, and overall door balance/safety.
Most Section Damage Comes From a Vehicle Impact
- Caved-in center section: can twist the track/rollers and cause the door to bind
- Bent bottom section: can prevent proper sealing and create unsafe closing behavior
- Cracked hinges/struts: impact often damages hardware beyond the visible dent
- Opener strain: the opener may keep trying and burn out gears/boards if the door is binding
If your door is stuck, off-track, or making loud grinding noises, stop running the opener and call us. You can also review our full repair service here: garage door repair near Braintree, MA.

Should You Replace a Section or Replace the Whole Door?
Section replacement is usually best when:
- Only 1–2 sections are damaged
- The door model/finish can be matched
- Tracks and structural components are still square
- The rest of the door is in good condition
Full replacement may be smarter when:
- Multiple sections are bent or the door is twisted
- The door is very old or discontinued (hard to match)
- Track framing is damaged from the impact
- You want an upgrade in insulation/appearance

Can you replace just one garage door section?
Often, yes—if the rest of the door is structurally sound and the section can be matched. We’ll inspect the tracks, hinges, rollers, and door alignment first.
Why is vehicle damage a bigger deal than it looks?
A car bump can bend sections and also knock rollers off alignment, damage hinges/struts, or twist the track. That can make the door unsafe to operate until repaired.
What if the door won’t close after a section is dented?
That’s common after impact damage. We’ll check for track binding, sensor/closing issues, and whether the opener is being strained. If needed, we’ll recommend section replacement or a full door replacement.
