Unbolt the rollers from the track, and the hinge bolts along the contact at each section. Start at the top section, Do the hinge bolts first, remove the line of hinges, then release the rollers.. should be two nuts on each hinge and two bolts on each roller at the end of the door section.
Only remove the top bolts of the hinges.. the hinge will help hold the section in place while you release the rollers.. then one person can lift the section down. [would be handy with a helper... but one guy can do it easy]. Repeat with each section, adjust the disassembly as needed to accommodate the bent door.. Should take about 30 minutes with a couple wrenches. Ratchet and socket.. faster.
