Cable, roller and track repairs in Alton: common questions

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.

Which options are available in Alton?

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

What does a cable or roller repair cost in Alton?

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.

Safety points for Alton customers

Until the visit, avoid using a door that is noisy, crooked or heavy. If it is stuck open and you need to secure the garage, call us first; forcing a door with a broken spring or cable is dangerous.

Questions from Alton 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?

No. A crooked door usually means a cable or roller fault. Keep clear and book a visit.
