Cable, roller and track repairs – example of the door type

What does a cable or roller repair involve in Newtownards?

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.

How do you stop it happening again?

Regular servicing catches fraying cables and worn rollers before they fail. Keeping tracks clean and not lubricating them with heavy grease helps too.

What can you choose for your Newtownards garage?

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

What does a cable or roller repair cost in Newtownards?

Guide price: £120–£280 inc VAT. We agree the visit price before we come; parts and any further work are priced before we do them.

You will know the visit price before we book. Any parts or extra work are quoted and agreed with you first.

What should you do until the engineer arrives in Newtownards?

Until the visit, avoid using a door that is noisy, crooked or heavy. If it is stuck open and you need to secure the garage, call us first; forcing a door with a broken spring or cable is dangerous.
