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

What does a cable or roller repair involve in Stanley?

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.

What can you choose for your Stanley garage?

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

How much does a cable or roller repair cost in Stanley?

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.

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.

My door is crooked. Can I still open it?

No. A crooked door usually means a cable or roller fault. Keep clear and book a visit.

No. Clean them and keep them dry. Light lubricant goes on hinges, roller bearings and springs, not the inside of the tracks.
