Cable, roller and track repairs in Dundee: what to expect

What does a snapped or slack cable look like?

The door hangs lower on one side, may jam part-way, or the cable is visibly loose or off its drum above the door. Stop using the door: a cable fault can let the door twist or fall.

What knocks tracks out of line?

A car nudging the door, settling of the building, or loose fixings can bend or shift a track. Misaligned tracks make the door bind and strain the operator.

Which options are available in Dundee?

  • Track realignmentStraighten or replace tracks.
  • RollersReplace worn or broken rollers.
  • Lift cablesReplace and re-tension both sides.
  • Bottom bracketsReplace damaged brackets.
