Cable, roller and track repairs in Colchester: what to expect
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.
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 Colchester garage?
- Track realignmentStraighten or replace tracks.
- Bottom bracketsReplace damaged brackets.
- RollersReplace worn or broken rollers.
- Lift cablesReplace and re-tension both sides.
