Cable, roller and track repairs in Whitehaven: common questions

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.

Why do rollers wear?

Nylon and steel rollers wear with use and dirt. Worn rollers make the door noisy and rough, and broken rollers can let a section leave the track.

What can you choose for your Whitehaven garage?

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

Should I oil the tracks?
