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

What does a cable or roller repair involve in Hove?

Can these parts be replaced without a new door?

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

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 Hove garage?

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

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

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 Hove?

If a spring has broken, a cable has come off or the door hangs crooked, stop using it, keep people and pets clear and do not try to force it open or closed. Leave the operator unplugged until the engineer has checked it.

Questions from Hove customers

Should I oil the tracks?

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