I just noticed that one of the wheels on my garage door came off. Not sure if it broke off, or a screw came loose. Is there any store is Milton that sells Garage door supplies and accessories?

Home Hardware or Home Depot will have the parts.

While your at it, check all the nuts that hold the roller/hinges to the door sections. Found a lot of mine loose or missing and double nutted all of them.

Thanks Geer. I checked the nuts, and most of them were loose. Weird. Will add that to my Winter checklist.
Cheers

No problem.

As for the nuts, they loose off because of the movement of the door and the wood crushing a little bit under the load. Blue Locktite and double nuts solved my issues.
