Permanently stabilize a sagging lintel over your garage door with LintelLift
Do you have cracks above your garage door? If you have a brick veneer garage, the cause is likely a failing garage door lintel. The horizontal support of brick, concrete, stone, or timber spanning across the top of the door acts like a shelf, supporting the bricks above it. If the lintel isn't sized properly or becomes damaged over time, it can sag and cause expensive structural damage to your garage. If your garage is attached to your home, garage lintel failure can cause structural damage to your home. LintelLift offers a permanent, one-day garage door lintel repair solution for failing and sagging garage lintels.
Signs of Garage Lintel Sagging or Failure
- Sagging garage door frame
- Cracks above garage door (especially from the corners and at the middle)
- Sagging bricks over garage door
- Gap between the garage lintel and trim board
- Lintel bowing in the shape of a "smile"

Why you need it. The primary reason for a home needing sagging garage lintel repair or replacement is that so many lintels are undersized to begin with. Some lintels also weaken over time because of corrosion. Without proper support, a garage door lintel will continue to sag and bow, putting the brick or stone above the garage at risk of collapsing. Cracks in the brick also create an entrance for pests and moisture problems. If you notice any cracking or a sagging garage door frame in your structure, don't wait until more damage is done.
