Garage door adjustable bracket replacement
 
The screw thread were seized and nearly dropped on me. Where can I get this bracket replaced locally?

Tempted to repair it with a few nutsert, but the bracket seems bent. Might as well replace the bracket if I can get it really quick locally.

That bracket may have broken from the springs being worn out, leading to undue pressure on the garage door panels and brackets.
Last year one my garage door hinges broke. I thought that was it so I replaced it myself. Didn't fix the issue. Later realized it was the worn springs no longer being able to support the weight of the garage door properly when raising/lowering.

TLDR: Check your springs too.

Just call a garage door guy, those doors are black magic and the springs can fuck ur day up.

My garage spring exploded, pretty scary sound too. Sounded like a gunshot.

Didn't bother repairing it because it was going to be torn down for a laneway house anyways
