Booked garage door hinge repair in Lexington, MN? Expect a tech who actually works Anoka County: fast dispatch, an honest diagnosis, and parts on the truck for ice- and snow-jammed tracks, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, doors iced to the slab on sub-zero mornings, and frozen, sluggish openers in unheated garages.
What wears out a Lexington door isn't just use — it's the weather. A cold northern climate of long, snowy winters, deep sub-freezing cold, and short, warm summers drives doors iced to the slab on sub-zero mornings, brittle, cold-cracked weatherstripping along the bottom panel, and cold-thickened opener grease that bogs down the motor, and we plan for all of it.
When Lexington doors quit, it's usually ice- and snow-jammed tracks, freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals, doors iced to the slab on sub-zero mornings, and frozen, sluggish openers in unheated garages. Our diagnostic isolates the true cause so the fix actually lasts.
Hinges connect adjacent door sections and let them articulate as the door rolls up. There are typically 3 hinges per joint between sections (left, center, right) and 4–5 joints on a standard door, totaling 12–15 hinges per door. Cracked or worn hinges cause clunks during travel, panel sag, roller stem twisting, and accelerated wear on adjacent components. Replacement is straightforward and often dramatically improves operation.
We carry hinges in standard residential gauge (#1 through #5 positions) and heavy-gauge for commercial or oversized doors. The position number determines hinge thickness — center hinges are thicker than edge hinges because they bear more load. We replace by exact position and gauge match, plus a few extras if visible wear exists at adjacent positions.
Hinge work usually pairs naturally with roller replacement (roller stems thread through the hinge knuckles, so doing both at once is more efficient than separate visits). If both rollers and hinges are due, the package price is typically 20–30% less than doing each separately.

Hinges are stamped steel — visible cracks mean the hinge is failing structurally. Replace before complete failure.
Door panel sags between rollers
A failing hinge can no longer hold the panel rigid. Panel sag is the visible result.
Roller stem appears bent or twisted
Twisted roller stems usually indicate the hinge is allowing the roller to flex out of alignment. Replace both.
Gap between adjacent sections when closed
Worn hinge joints can't pull adjacent sections tight together. Gap is visible from inside the garage.
Common causes & what we fix
Metal fatigue
Stamped steel hinges flex slightly with every cycle. Tens of thousands of cycles fatigue the metal and crack initiates.
Under-spec hinge for door weight
Builder installs occasionally use lighter hinges than the door warrants. Higher-position hinges fail first.
Coastal corrosion
Uncoated hinges rust in salt air, weakening the metal. Galvanized hinges resist this far better.
Missing lubrication on the pin
Dry hinge pins gall and seize. Lubrication during annual service prevents.
Impact damage
Vehicle or equipment impact can crack the hinge directly. Often comes with associated panel and roller damage.

Frequently asked about garage door hinge repair
Top questions homeowners searching for Garage Door Hinge Repair near me ask us:
About 63% of Lexington's housing predates 1980, with a median build year of 1974; on doors that age, worn springs, tired openers, and brittle weather seals are the norm rather than the exception.
In Lexington it is usually ice- and snow-jammed tracks — and because the area has predominantly single-family homes with attached garages, plus a core of older in-town residences, we also see a lot of freeze-thaw-cracked bottom seals. Both are stocked on the truck, so most repairs are one and done.
Single hinge: 15–20 minutes. Full hinge set (12–15 hinges): 90–120 minutes. Add 30 minutes if also doing rollers.
If multiple show wear, yes. Hinges at the same position on a single door wear at the same rate, so once one fails the others are close behind.
When the original was under-sized or the door is heavier than spec — yes. Heavy-gauge hinges add modest cost and meaningful longevity.
5-year coverage on replacement hinges. 10-year workmanship on the install.
