Is your garage door announcing itself like an old carnival ride? Upgrade the whole rig in one afternoon with our Complete Garage Door Hardware Kit. This all‑inclusive bundle loads your torsion system with heavy‑duty 11‑ball nylon rollers, 16‑gauge wide‑body hinges, flag brackets, drums, cables, fasteners and more—everything engineered for buttery‑smooth, whisper‑quiet operation.
What’s in the Box?
- Quiet‑Glide 2" nylon rollers (10–12, size depends on door height) for low‑friction performance
- #1–#4 wide‑body 16‑gauge hinges built to take daily door stress
- Matching flag, jamb & bottom brackets plus adjustable top brackets

DIY‑Friendly Installation (Tools You Already Own)
If you can handle a cordless drill and a socket set, you’re halfway done. Each component drops into the same mounting holes your old hardware left behind, so there’s no head‑scratching re‑measuring. Most homeowners knock out the swap in under two hours—spending far less than a single pro‑service call.
How This Kit Saves You Serious Cash
- Bundle & Save: Buying piecemeal racks up shipping fees. This kit ships once, at one low rate.
- Extended Lifespan: Thick 16‑gauge steel and sealed‑bearing rollers reduce future replacement costs.
- Energy Efficiency: Smoother tracking means your opener works less, drawing fewer watts.
- DIY Labor: Your sweat equity = $0 labor charge.
FAQs
Will this kit fit my door? Yes—choose the door height (7' or 8') and door width (8'–9' or 16'–18') before checkout for a perfectly matched parts count.
Do I need extra nuts & bolts? Everything you need ships in the box; a drill, sockets, and a step ladder are all the tools required.
How long does installation take? Most DIYers report 60–120 minutes from first bolt to final safety check.
Will new hardware make my opener quieter? Definitely. Fresh nylon rollers and true‑aligned hinges slash metal‑on‑metal chatter, easing the load on your opener.
Is there a warranty? All parts include Express Garage Doors’ standard limited warranty for worry‑free performance.
