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

Questions from Ilford customers
My door is crooked. Can I still open it?
No. A crooked door usually means a cable or roller fault. Keep clear and book a visit.
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.
