What does a cable or roller repair involve in Clacton-on-Sea?

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.

Can these parts be replaced without a new door?

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

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

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 Clacton-on-Sea?

Questions from Clacton-on-Sea 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.

My door is crooked. Can I still open it?
