Tried a new way to check for door lock drag on a 15 year old Otis unit

Honestly, I used a laser level instead of my usual string line to check the alignment, and it showed the bottom roller was off by almost a full quarter inch. Ngl, I was surprised because the string method never caught that specific angle before. Has anyone else found a better tool for spotting subtle door drag issues?

Guess the string was having an off day.

Yeah, saw a video about that exact thing, @ivan_cooper. Strings are weird sometimes.
