How to Replace Garage Door Rollers & Where to Buy Them

[@Nonamefriend]

Best video on KZbin. All set in under 10 minutes. Even an amateur like me felt like a pro. Thanks.

[@stephenraney2184]

Thank you for posting! This method absolutely works. First time out, I did 12 rollers in less than 20 minutes being very cautious. Couple of notes: I used the hammer claw to open the rail for about a 2-inch run and then found that vise grips were a smoother way to close the opening (rather than hammering it shut). I found it difficult to twist the upper rail enough to reinsert the top roller using just my hand, so I inserted the hammer claw into the "trough" portion of the rail and used the handle to lever the twist--made it much easier to pop in the top rollers. Thanks again for posting a great video--service company wanted $253 (!!!) to replace these rollers, if you can believe it. P.S. This method does no damage to the rail; it deforms elastically when you pop the rollers (other than the intentional opening at the top of the vertical portion).

[@erichildebrand8262]

One of the most useful DIY posts on KZbin. Just finished replacing my rollers and this video saved me all kinds of agony. No more than 10 mins to do the entire job. Door is now much quieter with nylon (versus steel) rollers. That you for your effort.

[@DarthVishes]

This is by far the easiest method I have seen online, the dislikes are probably sick from some garage repair company who is like a group we can't charge so much to do this now

[@JesseLewisACTOR]

This is by the far the easiest and quickest but most thorough roller replacement video. This should be viral!

[@stevejacobs5829]

Its not because the camera angles are horrible. Dude just rushes through everything. Total Chad video.

[@ChallengerRT-ld3sk]

No way. Super quick compared to other inexperienced installations. This has to be the best one

[@tjjoseph333]

We have a Winner! Watched them all. This has daily pro installer written all over it. Thanks a million for the share!

[@kiteyoda6611]

Yes, thank you for posting this. I've reviewed most/all of the videos here to find the best way to perform this little (?) task. After seeing your video, I couldn't believe that 'your way' would work. Well, I was incorrect ;-) My replacement installation of the rollers was just as easy as you teach...less than 15 minutes for the 10 rollers. Thank you again...I appreciate you and your help!!!

[@frederickholt9838]

This guy knows what he is doing, worked perfectly for me. Can't tell where I had to bend the track to place the roller

[@longarche1717]

I thought it looked too good to be true but it was just as easy as you demonstrated! Very impressive. Thank you!

[@user-eo1ms5st7o]

Wow, I had a roller with the bearings going out. This video was great! So glad I found it. Easier than all of the others. Just plain common sense. Thanks Thomas

[@antonella8739]

by far the coolest channel on youtube

[@krisw8527]

Had a company quote me $120 to replace my rollers. I found this video, bought a new set for $25 and did them myself in less than 10 minutes. Then I bought a nice bottle of Scotch, and called it even.

[@Cisco3750]

I like the last part 🥂

We charge $240+ and people calling ALL day. The prices are only going up

[@aje9518]

B4 watching this I had a completely different plan in mind.😂 thank you for this video. Who’d think changing rollers w a hammer 🔨 would be easy!!!

[@johndinofrio6143]

Thank you. Replaced all the rollers on my old 8 w by 7 h garage doors..did it you're way

[@opticalinch]

Thanks. That was a great straight to the point video. Got mine done in 10 minutes. Much quieter now.

[@twoweeledsoto6072]

LMAO!! You make it look so easy. I'm about to try this today, and I'm sure my door is coming off the rail and flopping on the floor. I'll let you all know. edit aftermath. Wow. pretty much like you said. I used the hammer with a little umph behind it to get the rollers out. Came out with little problem. I had the new ones nearby and exchanged them. I even dropped the old ones on the floor like I was a pro. I didn't even have to tap the new ones in with a hammer. I moved it between brackets where i could get the most flexibility from the rail and sorta twisted the rail, while pushing on the stem of new roller. I had more resistance from the 2nd from the top. I think the others rollers wouldn't allow the rail to flex as much, once they were installed. I did the very top and 2nd from the top, on the top rail. I had enough flex there. didn't have to bend any rails. Mucho Gracias, Mr Garage Door Man. Worked great!

[@mscramuzza]

Followed the assignment job went perfectly. Hardest part was getting started.

[@glenda6062]

i'm showing this channel to all my friends!

[@hienvuong5974]

After watched your video, I can do it when my garage door need to replace the rollers. Thanks!

[@joeb6671]

Thank you! I just changed mine in 15 minutes. You saved me $$$

[@Gdkcs]

To anyone wondering you can get pack of 10 rollers on amazon from $5 to $30

[@Gen3Benz]

Best roller replace vid. Cheers man!

[@spacecoastkid5033]

The tricks of the trade! Just watched another video where the guy said you have to unbolt each bracket!

[@patrickmoran6792]

Wow, just installed 20 rollers using this method. Took me about 40 minutes. The only thing I will say is if your garage has older metal track it may be harder to bend like mine was because it’s thicker metal. Otherwise it was a breeze.

[@dunamon]

My rollers were coming out of the track so I watched your video & found a loose bolt on the casing that held one of the rollers in place. Used your advice and put the out of track rollers back where they belong..Works great now! One more thing..My rollers are 25 yrs old an a bit rusted but spinning ok. Should I replace or not? Are replacements expensive?? Thanks again

[@bartman2144]

Replace them, a new set of nylon rollers are only about $15-$20. Well worth it! Probably be more quiet and roll smoother.

[@amirtherepairguy8066]

Hi everybody subscribe to my KZbin channel it Amir the repair guy I make video of troubleshooting garage door opener video and repair technology

[@ericastrother9176]

You deserve a lot more views than you have.

[@SRMXX]

Genius. Great video that'll save me a ton of time. Thanks! 👍👊

[@user-rn9gy7uj3j]

very good information than you for sharing

[@mjyumping]

1, 2, 3, 4. I have a fourth roller on the middle because mine is a five panel

[@jzizzles7799]

So easy. They wanted $100 + for this.

[@mrartyp2765]

Thanks for the great video. Best video I’ve seen yet will be doing mine this weekend

[@savageblis]

Lifesaver. Thank you!

[@williamalexander8315]

Worked like a charm.

[@searching4answers79]

Thanks for making this excellent video!

[@jevforsberg4766]

super helpful. thanks!

[@rjuarez3b]

efficient,effective, and easy to do!!!!!

[@babspartington5495]

Brilliant. My rails are thick with 25yr old grease. How do I get it off, pls?

[@darrellcheng]

Use a strong grease remove. Like brake cleaner

[@peytonbass5396]

The door still squeals when opened. So where would the Pro's lube those point to keep it quiet and trouble free? Also, the link no longer takes you to the page to purchase the door rollers.

[@jamestaylorjr5260]

Wow, this is great, the garage repair guy wanted $165.00 to do this! I bought premium roller for less than 20 bucks!

[@jgarno100]

I missed where to buy them. Did you say where?

[@w9gb]

What happen to the “Where to Buy Them” ?

[@fishslayer38]

Link to buy them is in the description 😱

[@cardboardorigami]

Not being a troll, what is still squeaking at the end after you’ve replaced all the rollers?

[@christopher7513]

Keep it up Big Reggie!

[@holidaydiyguy3566]

This doesn't work with a wood garage door other than the bottom one because the door doesn't flex enough to get it out of the tracks

[@LotusExige]

It has made my day.

[@Tklover6767]

Awesome! Thanks.

[@beformady4726]

i love your work!

[@granmadid]

[@bigdame320]

Nice editing!

[@foxmino]

Thanks this helped alot....

[@TheTmunz]

Where do you buy the rollers?

[@i.peeler2705]

you have to be insane not to like this ..

[@earlejackson7506]

Cool video.

[@broughtned9640]

You are brilliant! :]

[@giuly7360]

Please make more videos.

[@johnhallman1235]

Garage door companies charge insane prices. This probably saved me $200 and it took me 20 minutes.

[@riflesi3888]

[@thebronzetoo]

Badda-bing, badda-bang!!

[@dreamhome4432]

you guys rock

[@OnePointLander]

Does this mess up the rails?

[@ChristopherWrasse]

If left bent, you could have a possible derailment. It's advisable to place a rod within the track area and hammer back the track to it's original curvature.

[@DonaldCHenry]

Nice channel

[@dianadya6683]

that is so cool

[@TES-bt8sv]

Are Teflon rollers better than metal?

[@trevordoeshalloween5994]

TE S nylon are the best

[@householdhacks]

teflon and nylon rollers are quieter but can't take as much weight and don't last as long as the metal ones. i have metal ones that are over 50 years old and still work and if they weren't dirty they'd look new.

[@monicabarrus6936]

Can you come to my house I’m single and nobody to fix my garsge😢

[@ericb3142]

lol i love your vids

[@eileen7124]

more videos!!!

[@stevejacobs5829]

Maybe explain how you actually got the door to move to the half way open position. Most people are going to use the button to do this but I can tell you didn't. Slow down and show people exactly what you are doing. This felt rushed af like your boss forced you to do it.

[@jacobgilchrist6750]

Might want to do a quick Google search of him, he doesn't have a boss.....

[@jhanlon1903]

[@west4939]

I had some guy quote me $150 to do this, I immediately walked away.

[@jimmyshao6760]

i blinked and i missed what he did

[@kewin6942]

wow dude XD?

[@Ava-vu8vw]

cool! channel!?

[@nicolenorris8991]

I'd be pissed if I hired someone to bend up my track like this to cut corners. Why not unscrew the bolts and replace properly? I see why old garage doors are all bent up now. Disappointing. I hate when a company cuts corners.

[@scottprice7894]

Boom boom boom 123

[@kinlaw5583]

you are amazing? :)

[@coreysgmail7261]

Are you nuts That’s the worse way to do it You ruined the tracks , good way that you rollers come off the track

[@Amanda-wv3oj]
