Garage Door Struts & Track Clips

Reinforce and support your garage door with durable garage door struts, track clips and related reinforcement hardware. These components are designed to provide additional support for garage door sections and track systems, helping maintain the structural stability of the door during normal operation.

Garage door struts are particularly useful on wider, heavier or frequently used doors where additional panel support may be required. Track clips and related hardware can help secure components of the garage door track assembly.

Concore Garage Doors offers hardware for a variety of residential and commercial garage door applications, including stationary, adjustable, splice, high-lift and vertical-lift configurations.

Garage Door Struts

Garage door struts are reinforcement members installed across garage door sections to provide additional support. They can help distribute loads across the door panel and reduce excessive flexing during operation.

Struts can be particularly useful for wider or heavier garage doors and certain doors equipped with automatic garage door openers. The correct strut size and placement depend on the door construction, width and hardware configuration.

When selecting a replacement garage door strut, always verify the dimensions and compatibility with the specific garage door.

Garage Door Track Clips

Garage door track clips and related track hardware are used to secure and support components of a garage door track system. Properly installed track hardware helps keep the track assembly securely positioned as the door moves.

Damaged, bent or missing track clips should be inspected and replaced with compatible hardware when necessary.

Adjustable and Stationary Plates

Garage door reinforcement and track systems can use different types of plates depending on the application. Adjustable and stationary plates are available for systems requiring different mounting or positioning configurations.

An adjustable plate can provide flexibility when positioning hardware, while a stationary plate is designed for a fixed mounting application.

Because garage door hardware configurations vary, verify the existing component and measurements before selecting a replacement.

High-Lift Garage Door Hardware

High-lift garage door systems require specialized hardware because the door travels farther vertically before moving along the horizontal track.

High-lift applications may use specific plates, struts and track hardware designed to accommodate the altered track configuration. Make sure replacement components are compatible with the existing high-lift system.

Vertical-Lift Garage Door Hardware

Vertical-lift garage door systems are commonly used in commercial and industrial applications where the door travels vertically rather than transitioning into a standard horizontal overhead track.

The reinforcement and track hardware used in these systems can differ from standard residential garage doors. Always match the replacement component to the specific door and track configuration.

Splice Plates and Garage Door Hardware

Garage door splice plates are used to connect or reinforce sections of compatible garage door track or related hardware. They can be useful when repairing or modifying an existing track system.

The correct splice plate depends on the track design, dimensions and mounting configuration, so the existing hardware should be measured before ordering.

Why Garage Door Struts Are Important

Garage door panels are subjected to repeated movement every time the door opens and closes. Over time, panels can experience flexing or movement, particularly on larger or heavier doors.

A properly selected garage door strut can provide additional reinforcement across the door section. This can help support the panel and maintain its shape during operation.

Struts are not a substitute for properly functioning springs, cables, tracks or other garage door components. The entire system should be inspected when significant damage or operating problems are present.

When Should You Replace Garage Door Struts or Track Hardware?

Inspect your garage door reinforcement and track hardware if you notice:

• Excessive panel flexing
• Bent or damaged struts
• Loose track hardware
• Damaged or missing clips
• Track movement during operation
• Visible cracks or deformation
• Changes in the way the garage door opens or closes

Replacing damaged hardware can help maintain the intended support and configuration of the garage door system.

Before ordering, compare the replacement part with your existing component and verify its dimensions and application.
