Cable, roller and track repairs in Dover: what to expect
Can these parts be replaced without a new door?
Yes. Cables, rollers, bottom brackets, hinges and tracks are all replaceable parts.
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.
