Let’s be honest—garage door hinges aren’t exactly glamorous, but they are the quiet MVPs that keep everything running smoothly. And if you own an Overhead Door Banner Series garage door, the Upper Leaf Hinge is one of those small-but-mighty parts you can’t afford to ignore.
What Does This Hinge Actually Do?
This hinge connects the upper section of your garage door panel to the roller bracket, giving your door the flexibility it needs to glide up and down without binding, shaking, or throwing a mechanical tantrum.
When the upper leaf hinge wears out, it can throw your whole system off balance—literally. You might hear creaks, notice rough movement, or even see panel separation. Yikes!
Why You Might Need a New One
- Squeaky or jerky door movement? Your hinge could be rusted, cracked, or bent.
- Door sections look misaligned? That’s a sign your hinge isn’t doing its job.
- You like saving money? Replacing just the hinge = smart fix without replacing the entire panel or hiring a pricey technician.
