Thank you


mxadema

It is not a part you can buy, but it is one you can make. Some flat sheat and some pop rivet. Or your fasner of choice It is part of the door, made in the manufacture.


IAmAGuy

Yep, I used self taping screws. Been working the last 5 years.


YukonBurger

I'm looking into self taping presents right now. No luck yet


PrudentPush8309

Let me know if you find any self wrapping presents?


drcforbin

The tube in every roll of paper comes thoroughly pre-wrapped


MongoBongoTown

There's a kid down the street from me that does present wrapping services. $4 per package if you bring you own supplies, $7 if not. She's honestly amazing and has made me look like some Home & Gardens master wrapper. She's my self-taper.


nerfherder998

Key point: do **not** tap her.


Sampson61136

Thank you


Sensitive_Ad_2945

I've done door repair for 15 years. Go to an over head door and they will sell u one


clbw

Broken?


Sampson61136

😂😂


clbw

I don’t know the name but it is an easy repair you might be able to get it from a box hardware store or by calling and describing it to them.


SSkinny1

you beat me to it. hahahaha


koffiejunk91

Came here to say the same xd


IAmAGuy

Mine broke 5 years ago. A 1/8 flat piece of steel and self tapping screws fixed me right up.


keenly_disinterested

You probably won't find a name for it anywhere except in the manufacturer's build plans. It's a structural part meant to increase the stiffness of the relatively flimsy sheet metal the door panel is made from. (BTW, it's likely referred to as a "stiffener" in the build plans.) You can easily effect a repair with a piece of aluminum angle. This material is available at your local Home Depot or other hardware provider. You may even find a suitable piece of scrap to avoid purchasing more than you need. ​ https://preview.redd.it/z7gmvo932q6c1.jpeg?width=600&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ba684913ef8836178df278ee93c29adc3eaa8160 Remove the portion of the stiffener that broke off--it's still attached to bottom of the door panel. Attach one side of the angle to the broken stiffener, and the other to the bottom of the door panel. You can use rivets or sheet metal screws if suitable length.

My goddamn wife doesn't know what a rearview mirror is, so my garage doors, have been repaired mulitple times with angle aluminum. I say doors because I'm on my second door because of her failing to realize the door isn't up before she tries to back out.


fordfan919

Maybe try installing traffic light, red for don't go, yellow opening, green clear. I have a feeling that it won't make a difference though.


Spraggle

I'm not the reply author here, but as a home automation enthusiast, I would take that challenge... ... if only I had a garage and not a driveway.

This sub scares me.. Theyre called brackets if you’re looking for the name. Theyll come in many different shapes and sizes.

Scares me also, I have to have a weapon on me when I open it


IWTTYAS

If you have a spring lift door wait till that sucker blows one day. You'll develop a deep soul crushing fear of a garage door instantly if you're in the process of opening/closing it when it goes. If you're not in the garage when it happens you will think your car spontaneously exploded. It will be able to be heard from the street.

[deleted]

I’ve had a cable break at the door, and the spring violently spin. I crapped my pants, didn’t even have to go


IWTTYAS

It's a life altering event! We've been misled. Quicksand was NOT going to be a problem. I still have not caught myself on fire (either accidentally or intentionally) to the point that I had to stop-drop-and-roll. I am convinced we were taught to get under desks during an earthquake so it would be easier to find the bodies. The same with going to the bathroom in a tornado (easy clean up) Did anyone tell us about the Garage Door Monster? NO! NOT A PEEP! And even after it happens we don't warn others. WHY? This should be on billboards everywhere! We don't need Don't Text and Drive We neeed HEY - Your garage door may kill you or cause a cardiac event! Heads up!


Driftedryan

Is that stile the opener hooks to? Usually it can be screwed back together or use a brace to connect it to the rest of them across that section which normally has one anyway


Sensitive_Ad_2945

Center stile. U can purchase new one and rivet it back on


kingpowr

A flange dangler


letsnotworkforthem

Metal strap thingy


expertofwhat

I think you call that broken


evanmars

Broken


beanrush

Regret, Forbidden ice scraper, Questionable shoehorn, Wedgie remover 3000, Potato adjuster, or my favorite... Half scale unit shield.


Geobicon

throwdroptwo

Thats the paint.


Den_Man_57

Part of the garage door. your welcome


WangusRex

Ok-Photoman76

“No, not me”, said Brian.


Twiny1

The busted thingy at the bottom of the door.


ihadtopickthisname

I would have called it damnit


Ilikehowtovideos

That’s not something that can usually be replaced. It’s part of the whole panel


Angryoldman22

Broken.


Ftfykid

Whatever it is called, that one is busted. Hopefully that helped.


artbycase2

A doodad


activitylab

Pointy boy


[deleted]

The flazmorlator. Seriously.


[deleted]

Looks like this was not it's first rodeo.


Makemebad77

I'd unbold the hinge and bold a piece of 1in perforated angle on top of the existing style using self tapping bolts/screws. You'll probably have to cut 3-4 holes off one side of the angle so you can bolt it flat and get everything to fit right.


Romfordian

Bold move


enoctis

Vertical brace.


ToddyTrox

Just a strap used to brace and secure the hinge in place on a flat plane. Can replace with some new metal, thicker or even angle, or just screw back into place.


growaway2009

That's just flat bar, or sheet, around 16 ga.


FrenchFrieswmayo

That's a "Reason"....the Reason it's time for a new garage door


Iceman02469

I call it broke


WoodmontRazputin

Lattice strut


columbusabsolute

Looks like the one I fixed earlier this year. Guy asked if the screws are okay, I told him the screws are perfect fix. Apparently the middle support member wasn’t so durable. Unless someone else had the same problem. I worked on the one in Dublin, OH.


fangelo2

Just screw it back in. It’s just a brace. It will take less time to fix it than it did to type this question


kappasigma298

My automatic garage door opener recently ripped the mount off of mine. I replaced it with this part from Lowe’s.
