        "text": "Yes, vehicle impacts frequently damage the vertical framing studs, outer jamb, and track mounting points. An experienced general and finish contractor can assess the rough opening to determine if structural wall framing was pushed out of alignment. The repair involves bracing the surrounding structure, replacing fractured framing studs, installing a new jamb, and resetting the tracks so the door moves freely. If the drywall or exterior siding was cracked during the collision, those interior and exterior surfaces are repaired alongside the frame.",
