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

What does a cable or roller repair involve in Paignton?

Can these parts be replaced without a new door?

Yes. Cables, rollers, bottom brackets, hinges and tracks are all replaceable parts.

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.
