The garage door shown in this video has two pieces at the bottom: one piece holds the cable attached to the counterbalance spring and the other holds the roller. Some doors only have one piece at the bottom that serves the two purposes - there is nothing that can be removed that just holds the roller as this video shows. If you have one piece at the bottom then you need to use the procedure to bend the rails. That's why those videos are out there. This was the case for my door and bending the rails is not hard. I used an old ratchet extension to place inside the rail when I hammered the shape of the rail back into place.
yeah my door has 3 star bolts on the bottom bracket i removed them all but the bracket will not come off it seems like it is attached from the side too where the cable attaches to it there must be some way to get it off
you don't even have to bend the track on the singles. just open the door until the rollers are between 2 of the track mounts and pop the roller out of the track with the claw side of a hammer. please don't ever mess with the bolts on the bottom bracket. it will be the $20,000 garage door roller change when the hospital bill comes in.
Thanks Roger. Unfortunately, I didn't know this and I realized it when I was unscrewing the second bolt and suddenly was dislocated. fortunately, I hadn't unscrewed the first one completely. I managed to tighten the first one back but the second one just a few threadwent back into place.Now I have two problems!!! I have to call someone to fix both.
Roger Davis Mine have one piece, I just raised it up and removed that metal bracket and then took out the cable that attached to the bracket. There is not any tension left when you raise the door all the way up. Just change mine last night
Should have watched this video before I removed the first hinge on my left bottom door when it was under tension. Almost screwed up the right hand track when the door dropped and bent it............Was able to to get the hinge and roller installed after raising the garage door fully and straightened out the right side track. All the other rollers were installed with no problem and saved the right hand bottom roller for last and followed this video's instruction with no problem whatsoever..........Thanks bro
With much fear and trepidation, I went ahead and tried this. I double and triple-checked the tension on the cable. It worked great. I so much appreciate not having to take the track off or bend the track as others have suggested. I'm looking forward to years of smooth garage door opening with less sound.
Yes, it was inatalled upside down. And not everyone has a bottom bracket like that. Mine and most others are one piece with the additional bracket that his was attached to (having to remove 4-6 screws) - which then nececitates that bending of the track method. Actually very easy to do that way, also.
I started to use this method but when I examined the bottom bracket I found that the cable bracket was bolted to the door and the roller bracket was bolted to the cable bracket and isolated from the cable attachment. The door in this video looks like it has the same exact mounting brackets as mine. I was able to just remove the two nuts on the bottom of the roller bracket without disturbing the cable attachment. Take a look at your door hardware and you might find that it is easier to change than you imagine. However, I did find when I raised the door to its full up position there was plenty of slack in the cable to use the method demonstrated in this video.
THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO! I'm a 31 year old petite woman and was able to fix my door! The bracket was a bit different. It's connected to the cable but I got the roller back in! Thank you!
Most brackets are not designed like that. That is a 2 piece bottom bracket which is much more accessible. Loosening the bolts on a solid bracket, even at the top, would be much more challenging and dangerous as the cables still have tension with the door open, although much less. Good tips for this type of door but seriously do be careful when repairing these things, you can find yourself in a bad situation quick. Note: I sell/repair garage doors for a living (10years experience).
thanks so much for this advice. I didn't even realize that's how my door opened hah I have a different bottom hinge, yours is so easy to remove. I had to take the whole thing off, thankfully I'm tall 😅 I didn't like the idea of bending the track, I'm not sure I could get it back in place but I also read it causes premature rusting in the track! but with this advice, no one was in danger of getting hurt. I was prepared 😄 thanks again!
great! I'm happy it worked out for you. There is always some danger in working with garage doors under spring tension, so just be careful with messing around with these things.....
Like the "astroZombie before me, I was clueless as to how to go about doing this ... until I watched the first 2:24 of this. Mine is JUST LIKE YOURS. Thanks a lot!!!!! - Vern Hibbard
I noticed that when you took it off the screws were below the roller and when you put it back the screws were put above the roller. Does it make a difference?
I noticed the same thing! Also, this doesn't look quite like the man actually detached the part of the bracket that held the tension on the cable. There was a separate piece, it seems, that just held the roller. Very convenient, but not like mine, unfortunately. Going to hunt for some more RUclips help...
Well, if 0:52 is any indication, that roller is most likely hitting the concrete floor now and might've got bent on the first run, lol. When it doubt, take pictures or mark stuff when taking it apart. I'd bag on the guy, but I've made mistakes like that too.
The roller will now come in contact with the floor and prevent the door from closing completely. Some people simply should not produce instructional videos.
If there is a center spring above and in front of my garage door..... no cables involved..... should I be mindful of any tensions on the door itself since there are no cables involved with this sort of set up?
I noticed that you had "screens" attached to the inside bottom of your garage door and it looks like it is for ventilation. How did you cut the vents in?
My house was built in 2015 and when I raise the door up all the way I find there is virtually no tension on the cable. When I need to replace my rollers this is the way I'm going to do it.
Yep he did put it on upside down. Secondly not all bottom rollers are setup that way. Mine is a single piece so I either loosen the side rail or bend the side rail.
Mine is a single piece as well, and this still worked. The bracket just hung by the wire and it was easy to remove the old roller and install the new one. AND, it was impossible to install upside down lol....
That's nice if your bottom bracket is 2 pieces. Most aren't. That's why folks have to bend it out. The alternative is to release tension from the spring using winding bars and doing it that way. Just had to do that myself.
the only problem is the tub is above the door rail and leaked over all the rollers and the bottom one the shaft is frozen and won't slide out and the 2 bottom nuts keep on turning around and there is no head on the other side ? HELP I can grind off the nuts but how do I install another plate and does it have the tension cable attached to it ? I know to do this with the door in the up position to take the big springs tension off of it.
Ahhh On the re install it looked like the roller was lower than the bottom weather seal. I know one wants the bottom roller mounted as low as possible however the roller can't contact the floor first.
some overhead doors have the nuts to the bracket/ roller under the roller. that is why they have to bend the track. you were just lucky enough that your nuts were out of the way of the roller pin.
With this 2-piece bracket, cable tension is never a concern. He could have positioned the door anywhere with the same results. I wonder why the door manufacturers don't include a short removable section of track to facilitate easy & safe roller replacement. Maybe it would add $0.50 to the production cost?
I agree that bending the track is cheesy, but it's the second best method I've seen. The best involves a special tool that can pop the rollers in and out. A note on bending the track, most people bend it _way_ more than they need to. It doesn't take much. O, and that is one beefy door you have there. Somebody built it like they meant it. Either that or you live in a hurricane area.
Raise the garage door. Disconnect the vertical track from the horizontal where they join. Remove the top lag bolt for the vertical track. Pull the vertical track away a bit. Lower the garage door a few inches to drop the bottom roller just below the horizontal track. Replace the roller. Reconnect the horizontal and vertical tracks. Replace the lag bolt. Quick, easy, no need to remove the bottom roller bracket or concern yourself with the cable tension. Go to 4:35 in this video: ruclips.net/video/1gnhghq3YfY/видео.html
To easy and things are never that easy. It may work on your door, where the roller has its own bracket. But mine is attached to the part with the cable on it, and the roller thru holes are part of that bracket so the part that has the cable has to be completely removed to replace the roller. And yea, you put it back together upside-down. Good show! Unless you know what you're doing do not attempt this job. You may put it back together wrong.
These rollers that you see in this video were bought at home depot. Absolute crap. Dont buy them. They soon fell apart within a couple months. Bent and broken with ball bearings all over the floor. The ones I linked to in the description of this video are over a year and a half old and solid as the day I put them in. Buy those.
Good video but DON"T do it this was until you are very sure of the the type bottom bracket you have. Most today, including my double door, have the cable attachment as part of the lower roller bracket. Do not remove that type of bracket or you may be very sorry. For that type just bend the track rail back a bit as shown in other videos, pull the door and roller assembly out of the track, change rollers and reverse the procedure. . I lock out or unplug the motor, pull the manual release and raise the door manually, it's easier to line it up with the spot in the track you've bent back.
Finally I found a method w/o bending the track. Yes the bending method works and goes quick if you trying to make a living as a door repair man but I'm don't like it.
Don't do it. Read the comments below first. This does not work for the one-piece bottom plate. Look at the video, the plate that connect the cable is still secured on the door. I was fooled by this video, and now my cable is all untangled. I would probably have to rewind the garage door tension in order to fix it.
Indeed. He says "you're gonna see just how easy it is." Well, yeah...how easy it is when you have an intelligently designed bottom bracket. Unfortunately, for some reason 95% of us don't seem to have a bracket designed quite so intelligently with separate plates for the cable and wheel.
Ya I took the bracket off while the door was all the way closed thinking bolts on the other side were still holding it in place & it shot up so fast it bent the door when it got stuck in the next wheel in the line. Now I'm hoping like hell that piece is strong enough to keep the wire from breaking or slipping around the wheel somehow & all the while I have to figure out how to get that bracket back in place. I'm going to try and open the door all the way & if it's my time to die the bracket will slip through past the next wheel, if not then I can bolt it back in place. Either way I need to hurry because this isn't my house & I dont have ANY money to call in someone to help! Blonde moment for the sures!!
Just bend a portion of the track with pliers on the bottom to get the bottom wheel out and slide old roller out and new in. Bend track back with pliers no one will notice and you will live to see the next day.
I agree 100%. These home depot rollers are complete garbage. Don't even waste ten cents on them. After I changed all my rollers, half of them failed and fell apart in about 3 months. I had ball bearings all over the floor and the garage door was falling off the track. If you look in the description, I linked the rollers that I bought when I had to change them out again. They were a few more dollars but its like night and day. Not one single problem with them. They are tough and quiet and designed to last. Industrial strength....
That was easy. But you installed it upside down. Woops!! Wat about the other bottom brackets that dont have that easy screw off bracket.. Most are 1 peice brackets and if you take off the bolts it will pull up and make it harder for the customer to do it. Not a good idea.. Call a proffessional.. Dont loose a finger. It happens ive seen a few customers hurt.. Just my 2 cents. Just be safe..
Hey so I screwed up, I dismounted that bracket from the door while the door was all the way down, (shut up, I already know, stupid!!), and the tension from the wire snapped the bracket up & its caught in the next roller in the line. Well, I got the stupid wheel back in the bracket but now I need to remount it back on the bottom of the door. I'm scared because Idk what to do or how I can release that tention safely without accidently murdering myself, & put the bracket back on the door with the wheel now properly in place. Oh, & my truck is stuck in the garage until I figure this here out. Help me please, this isn't even my house! Ha! Woopsy!!! Lol! 😵😬
this video is of no use for the old fashioned wood nonautomatic doors. Here the cable is unaffected when the rollers are taken off. with the older doors you have to take off the hinge and the wire snaps Lose..... what are you supposed to do then?
Here is a link to excellent rollers. amzn.to/2IEHR6q DO NOT BUY HARDWARE STORE ROLLERS--THEY WILL FALL APART IN 3 MONTHS!
Just installed these last night. They were not sealed (as far as I can see) on the stem side but sealed on the other side. Hope they work well.
I'm curious as to why the new roller installed in the video is not the same as the rollers in the Amazon link.
Because he's a dumbass that installed the bracket upside down
The garage door shown in this video has two pieces at the bottom: one piece holds the cable attached to the counterbalance spring and the other holds the roller.

Mine have one piece, I just raised it up and removed that metal bracket and then took out the cable that attached to the bracket. There is not any tension left when you raise the door all the way up. Just change mine last night
When door doesn’t close all the way

I so much appreciate not having to take the track off or bend the track as others have suggested. I'm looking forward to years of smooth garage door opening with less sound.
This method worked perfect took me 10 mins for both rollers with the garage door up!!!

Hi, Thank for taking your time and sharing your knowledge. Can I use the same process to replace the garage door bottom fixture/bracket? Thank you!

Did anyone else notice the roller bracket was re-installed upside down from the original position?
Good eye my friend
Yes I was about to write that and came across your comment! Aren’t we so observant!
Excellent vid nonetheless 😊

I liked the video. Good job. One issue. You put the bracket back upside down. The roller is now lower, and will be hitting the floor.
I missed that, thanks second view lol
Your right! Taking a picture with your phone before you remove it may be helpful. Reinstall it correctly the first time.
I would of also sprung for 2 new brackets, but that is just me throwing $10 around like it was nothing.
You did do the other side, right ?
Great ! You installed the bracket UPSIDE DOWN !!!!
my my my it worked like a CHAMP ! THANK YOU VERY MUCH ...!
thanks so much for this advice. I didn't even realize that's how my door opened hah I have a different bottom hinge, yours is so easy to remove.

Yep, he sure did. Roller is going to hit the floor every time he closes the garage door.
lol that right ...this guy don't know anything about doors
Why is it loud as shit
@@thesummitofcourse sounds like a chain based opener instead of a belt.
Should’ve used nylon rollers.
I noticed that when you took it off the screws were below the roller and when you put it back the screws were put above the roller. Does it make a difference?

There's only one right way.
NO BENDING the Rail !!! good job!
My garage door is manual, my bottom roller has come partway out of the track. How can I get this back in there to change it?
You put it back on upside down. That's craziness!
Some of them the cable is attached to the bracket. That is why they prefer to bend the track to get the roller out, then pound it back.
If there is a center spring above and in front of my garage door..... no cables involved..... should I be mindful of any tensions on the door itself since there are no cables involved with this sort of set up?
I noticed that you had "screens" attached to the inside bottom of your garage door and it looks like it is for ventilation. How did you cut the vents in?
Those vents are part of the garage door. They were manufactured that way. I didn't cut them.
It worked great that way!!
You can also remove the vertical rail and just bring the last roller down to where it comes out of the curved rail and change the roller there.
My house was built in 2015 and when I raise the door up all the way I find there is virtually no tension on the cable. When I need to replace my rollers this is the way I'm going to do it.
This still works that you my good friend

My bottom roller keeps coming off the track - any reason why or what I need to look at fixing?
Have the door ballanced and install long stem roller..
Raise the garage door. Disconnect the vertical track from the horizontal where they join. Remove the top lag bolt for the vertical track. Pull the vertical track away a bit.

@@jakeguitar01 they broke because you reinstalled the bracket upside down. Genius.
Yours is very easy. The cable is not attached to the roller bracket. Mine does. Even with the door down you can replace the roller. It is a joke.
That is easy but only on these other manufacturers don’t have that option

yeah, the bend the track deal is a "professional" tip for speed and quicker cash. thanks for the video
I wish everyone made stuff easy like that guy beating up the track is stupid to get that wheel out
Hey dufus, you put the bracket on upside down. That's craziness!
My tension line is attached to the backer itself…remove the bracket= remove the tension line
I’m just here to write for the 100th!!! time !!! like everyone else..... But, it’s upside down.
Thanks
Maybe I shoulda watched before attempting to fix it myself…
I dont have that type of hinge...hhmmm...
Just bend a portion of the track with pliers on the bottom to get the bottom wheel out and slide old roller out and new in. Bend track back with pliers no one will notice and you will live to see the next day.
not a good idea you can hit really bad
Guys, I just came here to warning all of you, it's super dangerous and I hurt my head really bad of this. Please don't kill yourself
You put the bracket back upside down.
He put it on upside down!
Is metal rollers or a piece of crap you should buy white nylon Z bearing rollers
I agree 100%. These home depot rollers are complete garbage. Don't even waste ten cents on them. After I changed all my rollers, half of them failed and fell apart in about 3 months.

I call this working smart not hard ,,,🥴👆🤦🏻♂️🤯💯🧠
....and he did it without ki lling himself.
Couldn't he have done that with the door down too? That actual bracket didn't hold the tension
Do NOT listen to this guy..!
Not all door brackets are built like this.
With the door is open theres notension
The most dangerous video i saw !!
that's stupid, don't you know that not all garage doors are the same, they don't all have that part that way
That was easy. But you installed it upside down. Woops!! Wat about the other bottom brackets that dont have that easy screw off bracket..

Definitely don't follow these instructions. Not all doors are alike and more than likely yours isn't going to be like this.
Hey so I screwed up, I dismounted that bracket from the door while the door was all the way down, (shut up, I already know, stupid!!), and the tension from the wire snapped the bracket up & its caught in the next roller in the line.
